Hey /out/, anon here.

Let me first off say that I'm new to /out/, but not to 4chan.
I believe this is the best board to post this. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

That being said, why is /doomsdayprepping/ the outdoor equivalent of having a Mustang in the /o/ community?

Why do the general public make fun of people for being ready, I don't get it.

The reason I don't get it, is because I am a Florida-fag myself, born and raised.

I went through the 2004 hurricane season here. It was not fun. My family and I didn't bug...

Going to have to say you're a little biased based on the fact that you're on /out/.

Most people consider preppers or even people that have BOBs to be crazy, or in the least, nuts.

>are you aware of the solar superstorm which missed earth in 2012?

No I wasn't! I am currently researching now.

When I was a kid, I watched Man vs Wild a lot. I adore his spirit on survival, and his iron balls to eat something shitty normal people walk away from. that also made me a camper now.

But enough about him. My question is, what do YOU think of him, I also didn't redpilled myself to Grylls to so, discuss on what's bad about this bogus..

On a lighter note, don't stand under a bear that's about to get tranquilized by rangers, my dad worked as one for a bit and saw a colleague get a faceful of shit. Must've been pretty hilarious desu, the guy quit a few days later.

Whats your routine when stumbling upon (and researching) an interesting place?
Here's what i do most of the times:

>Step 1: Basic Internet search
Checking whats to find about it on Google and Google Earth/Maps. The downloaded version of Google Earth offers the option to use old satellite maps wich shows some places in better conditions, or with less trees wich sometimes opens the view to parts that were hidden before. Sometimes pictures made by other explorers are aviable, giving a good look at what will await me.

1st for day-drinking busch light and shitposting in fishing threads

>woooo

>>685667
Sounds nice. Except for the Busch Light. Get on some heavy duty Natural Ice.

Bass Pro has some big "Spring Fishing" deal and I guess tomorrow if you are a rewards member, you can get the sale prices early. But there aren't any good deals on rods or reels unless it is store brand. 25% off Spider Wire, sales on some lures, and then some random rebates but I hate rebates. I'm never going to take the time to fill them out and mail them.

>Get on some heavy duty Natural Ice.

natty ice was what everyone around here drank in high school at the pasture parties.

My dad and my best friend's dad both drink busch and I always raid their beer fridges when I'm in town so I've gotten acclimated to the taste but busch light has slightly fewer calories, gotta get that summer bod for reeling in the qt's while fishing shirtless in a 40 year old, objectively ugly boat while I'm out on the lake this year.

This.

Of course it doesn't make having a gun a bad idea, as long as you're not an idiot, which 9/10 Americans are blithering fucking idiots and more likely to shoot themselves or someone they love than anyone or anything that is an actual threat.

The downsides of guns in a shtf situation are myriad - ammo being the primary one - it's heavy and should shit really hit the fan, would be difficult to acquire more. Having lots of guns and lots of ammo stockpiled only makes sense if you have a...

DEET is probably the best option, another would be wearing long sleeves and pants. I have a few long sleeve shirts that are very light. UV 30 proof and help keep unwanted bugs off of you.

What is the appeal of freeze dried foods? I mean, you have to carry extra water to rehydrate it anyway, unless you are 100% certain to find and filter water on the trail at the inconvenience of the stream possibly being far away from your camp. Why not just carry canned foods? They are much cheaper and empty cans really don't weigh that much or take up extra space if you crush them.

Dehydrated chili + water bottle = same weight of Can of chili

I also forgot to mention it fold down into a little plastic case that's like 2x the size (2x width, height and length) of a zippo lighter.

Pretty compact setup for a solo backpacker
