Fresh bush beans, I love them boiled>>2877634Be carful with fresh woodchips, they can stunt growth for a few months after they are applied if they are not aged first in my experienceSome guy here stated that it's because they lock nitrogen from soil if they come in contact with it, idk
>>2877674>lock nitrogen from soilthat's normally not the reason. if it were it would be easy to put fertilizer down and never worry about it.it's more that the wood gets in the soil and blocks oxygen and starts fermenting

>>2877700if you dont have too many plants you can wash them with dish-soap and waterive tried neem oil this month but the thrips dont seem to care that much
>>2877720does dishsoap even works? i tried it on aphids and it did nothing, only combined with a bit of cooking oil it was killing aphids, but oil is aggressive to plant itselfmaybe i should try and use more soap
Strange how not a lot of talk about this on here.I would have expected way more pushback about this shit.https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/aug/14/bulldozers-big-bend-national-park-trumphttps://www.reddit.com/r/news/comments/1vp0p3y/devastating_bulldozers_plough_through_big_bend/
Crossbows arent archery edition.So we havent really had one of these threads in the fast handful of years. Post bow builds, your plans for hunting this upcoming season, your target species, your arrow build, etc.
>>2875341It gets addicting and you'll eventually won't want to hunt with anything else because of the challenge bow hunting gives. You do have to get closer and getting the perfect shot is much harder than with a rifle. You have to learn discipline that firearms hunting doesn't teach you, and you'll start taking your time to get that perfect shot and when you do it makes the payoff so much more fulfilling.
>>2875403That's what I'm hoping for. It's easy to take out a hog from 150 yards but getting to 30 or so with a bow will make me improve overall.
Have any of you hunted black bear?How about in a national forest?
>>2877447Yes, I haven't taken one yet, but I find most of the sign to be around places where you find forage wild blueberries, grapes, persimmons, etc. Some ridgelines have more sign and scat than anything else. just keep scouting, spot and stalk, or if you're in a place that allows bait.
>>2877695No bait, this will be late october so soft mast is probably gone by then. The area I'm going to scout are Oak/Hickory ridges that also have a pond on the ridge with a creek several hundred feet below, it's public and far away from people. Quite a hike just to get where I want to be.

This is the biggest rainbow I've ever caught. I caught it out of a beaver pond with other stocker rainbows. The fins are in such good shape that I think it's either a wild fish or stocked as a fingerling. However, my state has very limited rainbow reproduction.
>>2877725Fat fuck
>>2877668Send out a larger-sized sabiki/piscator rig with a spare rod and catch the little buggers. My favorite thing to do when I'm getting bites but can't catch them cause they're too small.Can catch all kinds of fun little fish too when you get good at it.

>>2876557CounterpointIt feels niceYou might like the way it looksYes, it's borderline LARP, but frankly, who doesn't do that? Most people out there larp as wilderness explorers in their overpriced WPB jackets even if they just walk their dog in fair weather, some people larp as old-timey hunters or farmers in their wool jackets.And yes, it DOES breathe better than most other materials. The moisture related properties of wool are not replicated by either synthetic polymers or cellulose based fibres. (I guess silk might be similar, but that's obviously not an outerwear option.) Which is btw. the reason you like wool baselayers as well. They're covered in kind of polymer, but it's ridiculously thin and water permeable, so the properties are mostly retained.
>>2876295>see people actual /out/>seethes and call them larpersTypical.

No but seriously, why cant i just buy a cabin and live there instead of a normal house?Its cheaper, more private and gives me great opportunity to do outdoor activities. Lots of cabins run on solar and have adequate plumbing, yet the cost remains low. Only thing i could think would be a challenge is winter, but even then i think a 4x4 and backup heating/electricity and lots of firewood. It would also give good homesteading opportunities.
>>2877666My thoughts exactly. The goyim deserve to live in dense compact cities. They ruin everything they touch, if these people started living in cabins (which they already are) then there would be no peace in nature (there already isnt) and you would need to retreat into caves (eventually, they too will start to "cavemaxx" and you will move to the ocean in a raft because at least in a raft people are less likely to reach you.) in this demented gay brown world, all space is owned and occupied by someone somewhere. Imagine the psychological and spiritual rape in knowing since birth and before you were born that you cant do anything or be anywhere without owing identification and money to "human" civilizationThe lion does not comply to these laws.
>>2877669
>>2877676Right?! Can’t we just talk about cabins without some desert pedo bullshit ffs?
>>2877676>lunges at the shitty baitlol, post hands brown child
Anon that was shitting in a bucket for 2 years here.Had a nice rain storm to break up the 98° weather sent directly from Satan's taint.Its not difficult.Its no more expensive than that 1 bedroom apartment youre renting.You just have to suck it up and bleed a little in the beginning.What were you doing 2 years ago?What will you be doing 2 years from now?
Where did I take this picture today, are you able to get the exact location? It shouldnt be to hard. Post orginal pictures of your recent outings that you took and if you did not go on any recent outings, think about why you keep making excuses instead of just going out even if only for a couple of hours on a small hike.When coming back to this board it feels like 80% is just larpers. There are almost no original pictures taken anymore and 50% is gear threads. lets try to change that and post real pictures that you took.
Up in the high country a little while ago. Work has been a cunt lately and its hard to get time off.>>2874745Is that the pink lakes near Underbool? My wife and I were there on our honeymoon.
>>2871068Location? CO? WY?
Had to use my shit kit for the first time today. Worked great, would've been fucked without it.
>>2877713it's not rocket science though
Anon goes hobomode in Sweden and dies in a an abandoned shack? Cops in Värnamo in the middle of Sweden found a mummified hiker in 2022 in an abandoned house. He was carrying sleeping mats and a storm kitchen and stuff. They can't figure out who he is. Anyone remember any anons saying they were going to go offgrid in Sweden?They posted pictures of his gear and stuff and it mostly looks like Swedish brands but he did have an american dollar on a chain https://www.expressen.se/kvallsposten/detaljen-som-kan-losa-mysteriet-med-mumifierade-mannen-i-varnamo/
>>2877577those are always bullshitters and teensr*dditors are stupid enough to do it, while here its just pipe dreams thrown into the voidthey should search for offgrid / camping subs that are popular with swedes, then look for anyone mentioning the area &/or equipment he hasanything personal, like craftgoods, should also be looked up, like "i made this cool keychain!!!"its weird they didn't get anything off of fingerprints, but maybe swedes don't do that stuff? fuck, for all i know, swedes don't even have fingers
>>2877569If I were ever lost, and there is indeed an afterlife, and I saw that somebody was looking for me here (because obviously I’d still be shitposting)I’d cry rain that melts holes into the streets. Thanks for posting, OP.
>>2877569I think he might have been somewhat inexperienced, looking at the fact he wore trainers. I wonder if he was a Swede, foreigners get injured or die more often than locals. Is it frequent to wear such shoes for Swedish hikers? I'm sure the pigs have considered all this and will find out who this is eventually.
>>2877569plepgoogle the guy in sweden who spent 60 days in his car all snowed in in temperatures down to -30c. its called hibernation, humans can actually do it in a way.
>>2877722We had a guy here, slipped under the ice. Way too long to escape asphyxiation and hypothermia. But when they pulled him out after hours had passed the guy recovered without brain damage even. Hypothermia must have saved his tissue from oxygen starvation.
I wanted to start biking trails and being more active. What sort of bike should I be looking at? I live in a rural area and own a car so I won't ride in the city too much. Googling suggests gravel bikes, is that a good option? I'm pretty handy so I can do maintenance myself and even upgrade parts. Is there something that has a good frame + decent parts that I could upgrade down the line into a great bike? I'm willing to spend a bit for something good quality but I'm not looking for a $10k bike. Sorry if this isn't the right board for this question
bikes are horrible for seeing nature you're just limited to roads like a cuck

Cube just released their new lineup, their Nuroad pro looks sick for the price if you are looking for a great entry level gravel bikehttps://www.lucky-bike.de/Fahrraeder/Rennrad/Gravelbikes/Cube-Nuroad-Pro-2027-M-taiga-n-blue.htmlAmerican prices may vary due to orange man, but in Europe this bike is a no brainer for forest trails unless you are willing to do actual mountain biking. Mountain bikes are slightly cheaper but less versatile than gravel bikes pound for pound.Another alternative is the Canyon Grizl 5, also German, which can fit wider tires up to 54mm and has a more comfortable carbon seat rest.https://www.canyon.com/de-de/gravel-bikes/adventure/grizl/al/grizl-5/4443.html?dwvar_4443_pv_rahmenfarbe=R124_P02
>>2877683in just a couple instances of day hiking i was able to reach into uncharted nature than i did with a bicycle in 4 years in mountainous regions it takes 1.5-2k meters of climbing to get to the good parts and you'll blow all your time and energy just barely getting there and even when you do you'll be around houses and people because that's why those roads exist anyway with your legs you can go offtrail but you wouldn't know anything about that
Just imagine - you’re walking around at night in the forest, and then suddenly you met a puma on your way - what will you do?

Alone airs tonight, lets get the seasonal thread going as they are some of my favorite comfy threads. This year its "Alone: World Championship" This season, survivalists from seven different countries are represented including the United States x3 kek, Canada, Wales, Australia, Slovenia, Portugal, and New Zealand. It is set within the Arctic Circle along the rugged Richardson Mountains in the Northwest Territories of Aklavik, about 150km from where they filmed Season 11Hopefully its more interesting as I found the last few seasons lacking
>>2877627You saw the most recent episode, right?

Last thread >>2856593This is a thread for enjoying a pipe while doing outdoor activities. If you ask why this belongs on /out/, you've never spentan evening by the campfire with a pipe silently enjoying the nature around you, and you're missing out.>how to get startedPurchase a corn cob pipe (or a cheap briar pipe) and a pouch of Half and Half or Captain Black tobacco from a smoke shopor online. You will need a lighter or match, and something to tamp it with--a large nail works well if you don't have a pipe tool.Fill the pipe with tobacco, pack it down halfway, top it off, pack it down to 3/4, top it off again, pack gently and enjoy. Smokeslower than you think you need to, the tobacco tastes best when it is burning cool. Tamp and re-light as needed. If you stillhave trouble, try different methods on YouTube until you find one that works for you.>smoking a pipe will give you cancerOriginally the Surgeon General found that pipe and cigar smokers, following a careful study of the statistics (at a time whenmost adults smoked, so they had a good sample size), had insignificant death rate increases. Nowadays, tobacco is beinglegislated against while hard drugs are being legalized. Put two and two together. Tobacco is just another good thing under attack by the government.Comment too long.

Hey all! Haven’t posted in probably almost a year. Entered the dating game again so my time/money has been focused on that bs kek.
