>what would they need to be aware of or look out for?

Getting your stuff stolen when it is left somewhere. Make sure whatever you leave, where ever it is, is locked up properly.

Infection. Flood waters are notorious for floating up the turds of animals, flushing out sewers, and having lots of carcasses. Don't get cut, don't touch your face without using alcohol wet wipes on your hands first. Wear protective gear, even general eye protection. Some of this depends on what you'll be doing of course. Just don't handle anything without gloves.

How can i profit of this hurricane ?

I went to Louisiana for work right after hurricane Katrina, and went again during hurricane Gustav. I also went to New Jersey right after hurricane Sandy.

I'm a paramedic, from Pennsylvania. Our state has what's called ambulance strike teams, that can be gathered together on short notice and head to disaster areas for help.

The motor is old, but I only paid 20 bucks for it

>>1090604

Trolling motors are optimized for squeezing the most possible range out of lead acid batteries, which are usually shit for electric propulsion applications

They draw current at exactly the most efficient rate, they do all kinds of power conserving shit as the charge drops below a certain threshold, etc.

I have a Minn Kota and I'm routinely surprised by how long it runs on a regular deep cycle marine battery. It just goes all fuckin day, no problem, and the battery is a year old.

>>1092572
Fuck dude take me with. But yeah pics would be nice. I'm trying to convince myself it's doable and I'll have enough light in the 11-12 hours I figure it'll take me, so long as I start at 6am

Im in Huntsville, AL, and I did that hike earlier this year (April I think?). Beware about halfway in the trail turns into a shitfest of giant broken rocks that you have to tip toe across. It's manageable, obviously, but extremely slippery due to high humidity from the river. Also the trail kind of disappears while you're on the rocks, turns out you just need to walk about 50m off the "trail" down a hill through a jungle to find the actual trail that is unmarked.

Overall great trail

Well that sucks.

Sorry OP, sounds like you have Treacher Collins.

>>1090077
ask for a specialist referral or shell out extra dough for a 2nd opinion from someone else

Nothing I can really do about it personally.
Hope he fucks off.

Those monuments and lands are all racist and oppressive and must be torn down because they were declared (stolen) by whitey

I fish, kayak, wild camp, mtb and hike. Usually on my own because most people I know don't like to go places without Wi-Fi. Sometimes go out with father in law when he can be bothered. Currently taking my wife glamping at a local site with the aim to slowly peel away the comfort/weighty gear!

I always take Trev the dogo with me ^ so I'm not completely alone

Fell walking is pretty much the only /out/ thing I can do near me. Except just general walking in woods and whatnot. But I really need to do something big like the Pennine Way or nip up to the Scottish Highlands or Lake District. I always go solo, though my parents get nervous about it because it's the Moors and they grew up under fears of the Yorkshire Ripper.

pic related from the other week. I suppose Moorland has a certain eery mood to it. I kinda like it.

nice to see /out/ is so solo bound.

Not bad, but it would never be sustainable for all humans with the number of people on the planet now.

In fact I quite like the idea.

>>1081920
agreeing with this anon
Anarcho-Primiivism is optimal imo but there is no way that could exist unless some world wide depopulation event occurred like a meteor or virus

Had a bunch of frickin fricks burning through my property with their motorbikes and autotrikeys. So I put signs up and made an annoying wall of logs that extended beyond the bypass points but they just came out and wrecked it and continued destroying the land >:[

Seals, mane.

Seal clubbing :D?

60 stings is totally survivable unless you're allergic, general rule of thumb is to pull your shirt over your head to protect your eyes and airway and make a run for it. Dude got lucky somebody found his ass.

On bright side it sure took care of all Lyme diseases and other shit if uw had any.
>tfw you cannot even help your neighbor because she is allergic to bees.

Ok but I still hate bikefags
