Managed to get out for a few hours. Couldnt find the fish but it was a good time overall.
Can't get a fish on, I've caught one since November. Fishing with spinners in western Washington lakes. Any advice?
>>2854822What do you target with what spinner?
> be me> Practice charting time.> take a lot of time taking measurements around my basement.> Take measurements back to charting table.> Absolutely fucked. > Repeat measurements repeat charting.> Still fucked.> Drop pen in frustration > North changes.> That was several hours of my life.
>>2854433Went out and started trying to find the distance of some radio towers I can see at night. All my measurements are less than or just at 1° I might need a different compass to get fine readings.
Circumstance of a circle of a with a radius of 1 mile, then decide that number by 360. I thing I was taught it's a ruff 175 feet. If the best resolution you can get is 1 degree than that is like the minimum inaccuracy you will see when using radio towers that can be many many miles away. Your pocket compass isn't for charting it's for navigating. Given a good map that same compass can give you your location with greater accuracy.

>>2850249only 1-2 guys at a time were able to get nearby him, only 1 person right next to him at a time. some rescuers were able to partially squeeze right next to him into the crack to tie rope to his legs or later around his waist (though they report it was very difficult to do so).>About 5 hours later Spencer called me up and asked me to respond, saying that people were getting tired and they really needed small cavers. >After stabilizing myself by jamming my body into a narrower section of the crack I began speaking to John...>I went first to check, just in case the paramedic couldn’t fit. I first tried the stethoscope and was only able to get it about 3 inches up and to the right of his naval. I didn’t hear a distinct heart beat, only some ruffling, fluttering sounds that were probably a result of me shaking as I tried to steady myself in an awkward location. I then jammed my hand between the rock and pressed as far up his torso I could go to feel for breathing.https://www.brandonkowallis.com/2024/02/the-nutty-putty-cave-rescue-the-death-of-john-jones-one-rescuers-perspective/you can check his report, there are also some cool diagrams and photos

I fucking hate them to my core. They often buy up land, then totally ban access to the public, even in places where public access was previously legal, with zero explanation about why, while bragging and showing off videos of the beautiful overlooks they would love to arrest you for trespassing to get to on their website. If they DO allow access, there's never any signage, adequate parking, let alone improved trails. They truly do not give a fuck and I imagine them as hateful boomers who pat themselves on the back "oh the land is protected now!" as they ban access. It might as well be private land. It has all been logged already.
>>2854295>which lady?the lady who answered the phone at the State park. The structure is unsafe she said.
>>2854370anon the area is closed to the public, trail building isn't the issue
>>2851127
>>2854427I guess at some point they are just gonna have robot police and drones roaming around and trespassing will be truly enforced. Shame people are so unwilling to share and instead revel in "owning" land which really just means getting to bully and be violent with others who go there.
>>2853895Someone with no money or prospects for buying their own land shat you out for probably no other reason than a desire for attention or because of an accident and millions of other people in their generation did the same thing so now the rest of us have to worry about whether or not you have a house and a job and a woman to shit out your progeny or you’ll cause trouble, especially if you don’t have a place to satisfy your caveman desire to see what’s coming to eat you.
I've Never Done That Before. Also Merry christmas.
>>2854056It's the FVSTIAN SPIRITA plurb wouldn't understand.
Lol
>>2853610nope. in the grand scheme of things its easy to keep warm, its very difficult to get cool, so unless you want to die of heat stroke in your sleep, thats why the vast majority of car dwellers move north in the summer. ill take a low of 20, even 10 over a low of 75, 80, 85 every time.
>>2853583REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>2853573These are really nice on cold mornings.Put one in each jacket pocket.They last around 8 to 10 hours.
I call it the Ventilation Improved Triple Pit (VITP).Two poop pits of the same depth and width as close as possible with a third low pit that becomes a downhill trench. The third pit is for urine the principle is a downhill dug trench with gravel at the bottom and dirt on top until it reaches back to the opening of the pit which is exposed gravel. You pee on the gravel it travels downhill through the gravel and you may plant things on top of the dirt which will drink the urine.This separation of urine from poop means the poop can compost and remain as dry as possible giving it the highest volume reduction possible and lowest smell. One poop pit is used for a year and then it is allowed to rest and users switch to the other pit. For every 1/4th the pit is filled you must throw in a shovel of worm rich topsoil. The poop pit being used will each week have dry crushed leaves and wood ash of aboht the same quantity tossed in. High carbon, low moisture and the final piece of the puzzle is aeration. A pipe must be installed from the two poop pits out above the roof or sitting area, and it must have a mesh or fly stop on it. This airflow allows the highest level of composting. I advise connecting the two poop pits together via this air pipe with a three piece pipe connector and only one air pipe coming out. In your local environment you should have mint or peppermint plants. These usually contain menthol which is an insect deterrent. Do not throw directly in the pit, plant them around the toilet and crush leaves up, or create an decoction and spread around the area weekly. If this is done correctly not only will it not stink but you can realistically with a permanent group never have to get in and shovel raw shit.
>>2854248Not the same thing. The roots can grow away.
>>2854310and the biggest toilet in India is the Ganges river.
>mom found the poop pits
>>2853519I just poop in the river it makes washing my butt easy.
>>2854788No.
thoughts on /out/ Youtubers going camping and labelling themselves as "homeless nomads" for money?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=babmqkggnhg

It's time to return to mother nature! Anything artificial shouldn't be brought or crafted!
>>2854676So it's still possible.Mud can be used as mosquito repellent.Feeding yourself is obvious, unless you meant by how hard it is to scavenge for food.Also, thought on this 82 Japanese man? https://paradise.docastaway.com/old-japanese-nude-remote-island/
>>2854733*82-year-old Japanese man?
>>2854733It is an interesting story. Seems like he has mood swings caused by social isolation tho If I had to lead to live that life I would try not to isolate myself completely from nearby people so I don't become insane from loneliness Also he has the chance to live in a high trust society. You can't do that in a black or latino populated tropical area, people would murder you at some point
>>2854532You replied to a jew so he probably would be
>>2854752naw, jews know how numbers work.
Just ordered the North Face Stormbreak 2. What tent are you rocking? What do you love and hate about it? What tent do you want?
>>2854695I'm just wanting any pictures of windbreaks people made because I think they look cool.
>>2830259>earplugs: in>xanax: taken>sleeping bag: comfyNighty night
>>2854737Pic of a windbreak. Or a lean to or whatever. You're welcome.That night I came across someones wood, figured that's nice, did something against the rain on the other side. Slept in between. Had no wind related issues.More?
>>2854755But most nights if it is raining when I arrive or starts during the night or there is an issue with the wind I just do the A thing. Guess that doesn't count as a windbreak.
>>2827319MSR Hubba Hubba 2 with a a gear shed, the gear shed is great. Use that when I am not likely to be in storms or really bad weather. When there is a chance of a storm/strong wind then I use my Hilleberg Allak 2, and double pole it.

Found some white oak acorns that the fuckass squirrels didn't get to back in September. Three months later they became sprouts, and just 6 days after sprouts they shot up this big.
>>2854678Oaks have a deep tap root, the sooner you plant them the better
>>2854709Yeah I was honestly surprised, I was gonna give one of these away and I was expecting in March maybe, not a week later.
>>2854709>>2854739 (Me)I'm also concerned about the weather before planting too because my area gets blizzards anywhere from Oct to March. But, we've been having warm weather with only one snowfall so far this year.
Was he retarded? or free?
>>2854680i guess there is a certain naiveté and spirit that is very alluring to some people, it's like he has become this archetype for a certain kind of longing for the outside, but therein also lies his biggest mistake: being very naive about the whole thing. it's like his longing completely overwrote any sort of common sense, so instead of gradually working himself towards his goal, he just threw himself at it, believing he'd survive. even if he didn't have the problem with the berries, he essentially slowly starved himself and there is no way that any of what he was doing was healthy.
>>2854680this type of back-to-nature excursion is the male equivalent of an eat pray love vacation for women

>>2852197I've been watching a shit ton of Homestead Rescue. Its a boomer guys version of a youtube channel. Basically its kitchen nightmares but with acreages and homesteads. There was a black family whose entire property was always wet and never drained and then the Raneys showed up and turned off the hose that was leaking for a decade. Good shit.
How do I become one of them rangers like Aragorn?Reading The Lord of the Rings some of my favorite parts are the ones with Strider's show of skill.I love how he is completely aware of his surroundings and is able to instantly read footprints and use herbs and quickly make himself and his companions unseen and escape danger. At times he seemed more in tune with nature than even Legolas.I have seen quite a few threads on here of people being scared of the dark and I feel like if one had good old Strider's skill and knowledge he wouldn't be afraid no more.Aragorn wouldn't be startled in the middle of the forest by some bear, he would know about that mountain lion following him for the last 2 miles. He wouldn t get poisoned by some mushroom or die of hunger because he knows what is good and what is bad to eat. Strider wouldn't get lost in the forest since he has been drawing a 3d map in his head this entire time.How do I become more like Aragorn, obviously he has had 80 years of experience but what books would you recommend and things to do in the forest to become a little more like him
I want a lever bow so badly bros so so badly
>>2847899Lol'd irl, thanks.
wouldn't you just >learn how to use a bow an arrow>learn basic hunting, trapping, tracking skills>know how to build shelter basically just grow your hair out for a year and get it layered, grow some facial scruff, know how to use a bow and enough survival skills to not die and learn how to ride a horse. This is basically any outdoorsman who has done it for enough time, imagine if that luke bloke from outdoorboys was handsome and thats aragorn.short: go outside
>>2845772Regarding plant identification, there's a really nice app called Pl@ntNet which has a hude database of pictures to help you ID plants by taking pictures. It's not a surefire method but it can help narrow it down to 2 or 3 options that you will learn to ID yourself using texture, smell, observing the surroundings (not all plants thrive in the same conditions) etcThe best method to learn botany is to track the interesting plants you encounter by>taking pics (drawing them is better but not everyone can be bothered)>writing the coordinates and a description of the site where it was found (surrounding plants, soil texture, distance to closest treaded path, distance to water stream, canopy structure, seasonality...)>reading about the plant and its properties>recognizing its habitat elsewhere and looking for itI would assume half the board is familiar with picrel's channel, it's a good way to start stridermaxxing
>>2845708Keep in mind it was written by a guy who didn't know how to do any of that so its not realistic at all.
Anyone here with experience in the Chugach or Talkeetna? I'm steadily building experience and starting to get into very sketchy stuff. Pic related required constant switching between crampons and skis due to snow conditions. Did Bashful alone in August and that was wild. How bad of an idea is it to get on the larger glaciers alone? Very, I imagine ?
>>2854471I live right in the Chugach. With how unpredictable the weather can be up here and how isolated it is, I wouldn't recommend exploring glaciers alone. At the very least, have a GPS communicator like an inreach mini so you can ping your location to your mom or whatever if you fall down a crevasse. There's also lots of avalanches up here. Haven't had a ton of snow lately and it's been pretty dry so what snowpack there is is gonna mostly be ice or sugar snow which I'm sure you know is tricky to navigate. Bring a fren, anon. Don't be suicidal.
