I'm a yuge fan of the Pentax DSLRs. They have ridick weather sealing on their entry-level models. Nobody else gives you weather sealing at that price. I have a K-50 and it gets poured on and I know I don't have to worry about it fucking up. It has a rugged polycarbonate body (over stainless inner chassis) as well which takes hits without denting, faking, or fatiguing. Even the kit lenses are weather sealed for dirt and water. Not it can't be submerged or anything, but you can legit drop it in the dirt and then take it in the shower to clean it off.

That's quite obvious.
No tribe that lives in the world survives without meat. Just face it.

Does fishing count as hunting? tribes didn't survive on hunting to the same extent as fishing

>That's quite obvious.
For me it wasn't.
I actually believed that you can survive on berries and insects like in all the TV shows and books until I tried a fruit diet at home and almost fucking starved although I ate a decent amount of fruit.
Now I know that all this stuff is short-term survival only. I feel my muscle loss and foolishly enough, I even worked out in this malnourished state.

Good guy that did good work for the sierra club. Saved it from potentially being a shitty fear mongering environmental organization.

I personally like him because he came up with a minimalist style bench that requires one board, 6 carriage bolts, and a fist full of screws. I made 8 of them for my Eagle scout project a few years back.

that bench design isn't really that impressive, clearly he wasn't a wood worker.. dunno how you can inspire someone based off a "minimalist" bench that uses carriage bolts and a fist full of screws.

minimalist would be joinery only and I can tell you how to build a one board bench doing so. so do you aspire my set of skills? I would hope not.. you don't know me.

I always figured Aldo was more of an intellectual guy when it came to /out/ stuff. He was a forester, went to Yale and was an adviser to the UN on conservation when he died.

Does you /out/siders know of any other influential, famous folks like him? I'm admittedly short on knowledge of the outdoors myself

85l is MORE than enough for 4 season use.

How do you go about cleaning your arse after making poopoo in the woods, toilet paper or baby wipes? Also, what's the official policy of your institution on this matter? Any regulations about it? Your answer is very important because it might help settle a long going on dispute among us. Peace.

To do your stuff are you guys also emt trained?

i think every bachelor has this comfort. the economy of security comes from family folk who dont have the option of disappearing into the night with a bag of nuts and a lighter

also, you will eventually become a rat, because it is almost impossible to both be a drifter and be confidently self sufficient. either you are eating out of dumpters, limiting your movements to social areas, or are on the unbeaten path and have 0 reliable food and water sources, which will either herd you back into society, or force you...

I've found regular grooming and frequent laundering of your clothing makes things much easier all around.

Seems cool in theory but in my fantasy I'm a highly skilled guy that goes from town to town solving mysteries and saving people from greedy land developers or whatever. Reality would be a lot more dirty and depressing.

Sierra Trading Post. Their selection is inconsistent, but it's not hard to find really good stuff for ridiculously cheap there, especially with the easy to find coupon codes they always have.

Campmor is more consistent with stock and also usually have a coupon you can use.

Those are my two favorites. Backcountry (and Steep and Cheap) can also have good deals, as can REI's outlet section. And so can brick and mortar stores, if you're buying stuff out of season. Outdoor gear is actually fairly easy to find cheap because of how often manufacturers...

Your typical large sporting goods store like Sports Chalet in California or Academy in Texas. They'll be stocked to the brim with products like Coleman which are very cheap but honestly work just fine.

If you feel like splurging on high quality shit like Osprey backpacks or titanium campware, REI.
I am an REI whore and they'll do big sales every so often and the "garage sale" every few months. (look it up. You can get badass shit...

Lol that head is going to fly off. Who would make the lip that small?

Thats not a lip the lip would help and the lip is actually the circular part on the bottom, the thing you're saying is small is called the eye but yeah it's way to small it's just a disaster waiting to happen.

Whatever you do, make sure the animal suffers as much as possible. Also, don't eat it, just take trophies.

Bow hunting is a lot more of a challenge. It depends on what you want out of it. If you don't give a shit about sport or a challenge, go rifle, 100%. If you want a challenge, go bow, though maybe starting with a rifle and going hunting with an experienced hunter who has taken game and properly cared for it might be a good start.
