Damn, so they are finally giving the skinwalkers their land back? Took too many years, but this is the right thing to do.

you really haven't been paying attention, have you?

Actually, I have. It's you that hasn't.
The locals have been running roughshod over that area for decades.
Question: this coiled plastic pipe drains into a river by my campsite. I often camp here, and am curious as to what it may be used for. I am guessing erogation? As there are is no plumbing used anywhere even close to here. Im in south western ontario. Where i am is deep in a valley where a main river flows through. It looks fairly new.
Thanks

Erosion prevention.
I got something like that at home. It collects water from around the foundation and drains it into a ditch down by the road. Keeps the basement from flooding. I'm guessing the pipe drains water from someplace that's prone to flooding or erosion

Thanks guys. I figured just that. Its kind of interesting how in the middle of nowhere someone took the time to do this. It is a "private" campground, and the people here dont seem to take time to do anything besides drink.
The site is directly below a big cliff, so this makes sence. I just wonder where they would tie in to collect water.

What does /out/ think of these noodles?

take up too much space. i would never bother with one.
that said they're great when you need a sodium refill or for a hangover. i always use more water than you're sposta because muh hydration.

Good non-perishable food to keep on hand at the house due to its long shelf life and only requiring boiling water to cook. Bad for taking on a hiking/backpacking trip because it takes up too much space in your pack for the small amount of calories it provides and leaves you with a Styrofoam cup that you must dispose of somehow.
rare quads?

Co-worker was telling me all week (and last weekend) that we gotta get out fishing. Hit him up everyday last weekend, yesterday, and today and he always has an excuse. Real fishermen realize that fishing takes...

According to the green berets if you make it to the top of a mountain and then get picked up by the helicopter it's not a """"rescue"""" even though they were unable to make it back down under their own power.

There's no way that girl could carry that pack and all that gear on a 1,000 mile hike, is there?
>>784669
With a lifetime of training I don't see why not. I know a small guy who weighed ~130 pounds that hiked over 370 miles with a pack like that in one go like it was nothing.
Whore.

When I say one go, I mean without going home, like he camped and shit.
Does anyone know what plant this is

It's probrably a daisy or something

ok, serious response, where did you find it?
What's a good spread to put with tortillas while backpacking? Meaning it cant spoil and such.
Bonus points for no peanut butter.
I was thinking 2 packs of tortillas, and some sort of add-water-meal would go well too.
squeezable bacon cream cheese that can be unrefrigerated for a week
unfortunately is has to be ordered directly from yurop, so shipping effectively doubles its price. :(
>>782436
while I love cream cheese I get gas/stomach pains if I eat too much dairy. That seems hi cal as fuck tho and seems perfect nonetheless

All the weight you are saving is meaningless because you still have to carry around things to fill them with. Get rye or whole wheat bread and cured meats instead.

Can't help you there, bud, I have never been there.
How do I go about carving a pipe, like this, but simpler. I have a Mora and I can get a drill for the stem. Do I use multiple bits of wood or a single piece?
>>780597
I want to use it for tobacco, but if I'm /out/ with certain people I'll smoke weed from it, if that makes a difference.
Here's my CC pipe, I used a small elderberry branch for the stem cuz it has a pith down the center that can be pushed out with a piece of wire. I mostly smoke rabbit tobacco in it... mostly

i am going to have some "in-the-woods"-fun next week.
5 days with three buddies, surviving in the woods.
(we did that last year and it was an awesome experience.)
this year we will not bring MREs, because we were really sucessfull at trapping and fishing last year.
i already got everything together. so lets play a little game:
i will take two of the knives on the picture with me.
they will be used for:
cleaning game,
making wooden tools:(spearshaft, bowdrill, bow, arrows...)
processing food,
cutting whatever we need...

Bk2 and opinel.
Clean your fish and chop your wood.

>Bk2
Can we stop with the prybar meme already? That's a terrible knife.
If i had to pick two, i'd take the d'eskabar and rsk bushcraft - by far the most useful.
Then i'd throw in the opinel too, because it weighs next to nithing and there's no excuse not to take it.

This is much more realistic. Everything is about getting food.
If you woke up in the woods completely naked but in normal physical condition otherwise, what would be your plan of action to make sure you don't die?
>>787134
I live in England so I can just walk a few miles in any direction and come back to civilisation and I won't die of hypothermia or overheating.
Figure out where I was.
Find a high vantage point.
Walk towards civilization.
If I couldn't find any, I'd start to build a shelter, and start a fire. I started a fire once with a bow drill. It was dry as hell and ideal conditions. Honestly doubtful that I could do it again with no practice.
