You don't burn your shit paper?

Weather is starting to get cold and I wanted to get you guys opinion so I figured I'd get the wool general going
What's an acceptable blend in your guys experience for /out/ings? I'm looking at getting one of those L.L. Bean birdseye sweaters and it's 80 wool 20 Rayon. Will the rayon be detrimental at all? Anyone have experience?

That's not how it works. You always dress so that you're cold when you start, you'll still need protection from the elements. You can't do that with lhogden.
It's definitely not breathable compared to any sports fabric.

>It's definitely not breathable compared to any sports fabric.
Only if that sports fabric is fleece or something. Also what are you comparing wool to modern synthetics for? Nobody who's in any way serious about the outdoors wears wool except maybe some merino base layers. It's obsolete, expensive, heavy, slow drying. People who wear wool do it because they want to wear wool or at least natural fibres. Loden is an option for that. No more, no less.
>Nobody gives a damn if you like the stuff

This is a thread for enjoying a pipe while doing outdoor activities. If you ask why this belongs on /out/, you've never spent
an evening by the campfire with a pipe silently enjoying the nature around you, and you're missing out.

>how to get started
Purchase a corn cob pipe (or a cheap briar pipe) and a pouch of Half and Half or Captain Black tobacco from a smoke shop
or 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. Smoke
slower than you think you need to, the tobacco tastes best when it is burning cool. Tamp and re-light as needed. If you still
have trouble, try different methods on YouTube until you find one that works for you.
>smoking a pipe will give you cancer
Originally the Surgeon General found that pipe and cigar smokers, following a careful study of the statistics (at a time when
most adults smoked, so they had a good sample size), had insignificant death rate increases. Nowadays, tobacco is being
legislated against while hard drugs are being legalized. Put two and two together. Tobacco is just another good thing under attack by the government.

Thanks anon, I snagged 8oz plus another 8oz of Brown Flake Unscented

I'm in a psych unit but when I get out I'll be staying with grandparents in a property in the woods. It has a river, dams, losts of trees. I want to do some "prepping" and learn outdoors skills, perhaps have a bug out bag and set up some outdoors shelter and fireplace. Any cool tips or advice?

This 100%. Please don’t delve into the prepping community. It’s a cesspool of paranoid losers that can turn even a completely neuro typical person into a freak.

A solo hobby to develop for yourself is good too though. Spend lots of family time but it would be good to focus on an /out/ hobby you can do by yourself. For love of god make it something productive like hunting, fishing, or gardening and not some retarded and wasteful consooooomer “hobby” like prepping.

get a cheap 900ml pot and a brs-3000 knockoff from aliexpress or similar (or fashion yourself a diy alcohol stove). Go on walks in the woods and stop for a tea / coffee. Having 'go to place X and have a tea there' is much better as an activity than just walking there and back. Use this to map out the woods slowly. The human brain likes having a goal/reward and this is an easy one. You can get set up for like $20. I like the chinese titanium camp pots that are available now. they get very cheap on sale and are very light for carrying in a small backpack.

Consider this, the Donner party ventured into the Sierra Nevada mountains with no knowledge of the land, with not enough food to last but a month or two. Got snowbound and starved, eating the saddles from their horses and some ultimately eating their own dead. But all the while they were surrounded by Miwok Indians who were not preppers, but people who deeply understood the land and all its inhabitants in that area. They didn’t “survive” there, they simply there with the resources the land provided.
Well, in one sense they were preppers in that they did, like the squirrels and other animals they prepared for the long cold months by caching food during the warmer months. They had a good store of dried fish, acorn, pinyon nut, and other foods. Like people who rely on wood heat today, they had a store of firewood and they stayed toasty warm in their small conical houses, in many cases insulated with thick tule mats and warmed by a small fire, all the while wrapped in their thick rabbit skin blankets. Consider also the story of Ishi, the last known wild Indian who stumbled out of the woods half starved because just before winter set in, a group of white trappers came upon their hidden homes, took all their food, and even took the rabbit skin blankets!
I see prepping as knowing how to return to the old ways. Yes you should have some things stocked, but more importantly you should have the knowledge and the tools to live off the land in the area of the world you find yourself in. I myself live in the southern Sierra Nevada. I know the cycle of life that people once followed here; I know what was harvested when. and I count among my friends people whose ancestors lived here for ten thousand years before the Europeans came.

I have an m85 Alice ruck on a hdpe frame. I've got a matching hammock and woobie. Me knoif(s): a helle spider, a batoning knife, and an okc 5.5". I've also got a fiskar hatchet. I keep dryer lint and a ferro rod in an empty tobacco tin. Started keeping dry flour and yeast in bags, and a jar of honey butter, or herbs in butter. I've also got peanut butter with my own trail mix blend, and I'll bring a collapsible rod to catch fish. During antler and holiday antlerless I'll bring whatever rifle with me along with my cdib since I can use that as my hunting/fishing license on tribal land between the Cherokee, muskogee-creek, chickasaw, choctaw, and seminole. Fresh socks, skivvies, and a first aid bag with stuff my ems supply won't miss. If it's freezing I'll bring my cold weather sleeping bag. I've got a space blanket for general purpose use. Haven't tried to use it to reflect Campfire heat.

Check the tides and the supposed "best times" using the tidesforfishing site. Used mullet, blue crabs, sand fleas, mud minnows, shrimp. Nothing. Used to toss in a shrimp and get a spotted sea trout almost every time. Guess even in FL fishing is mainly seasonal

Rural, but not wilderness. I went on a search and wellness check on a couple of autistic kids, one non verbal. They decided to up and take off. Thank God it was summer. Parents lived in a trailer out in bfe and basically bordered the woods out by devil's den state park. Dogs find them, we put them in our ambulance to check their vitals. Oh my God, the first time I ever wanted to steal a couple of kids. They kept showing me the toys they brought with them, and they weren't even scared. It was like another walk down the street for them, playing with their toys. Their aunt put in the report after stopping by to visit, the kids' parents were methheads and passed out after being on a 5 day binge. The state ended up taking those kids, and I pray they got somewhere better.

I love being outdoors, love hunting camping hiking fishing, all of it. Been doing it all since a kid. But I have a huge problem with being scared of the dark. I'm alright as long as there's someone else with me, but when I'm alone out deep enough into the woods I can't help but be debilitatingly scared of the dark.

It's so bad that I have to have my hand on my gun at all times once the sun goes down, I even piss in a bottle at night so I don't have to leave the tent. It's hard to sleep because I'm hyper alert to every sound, and as you know there are a lot of them at night. So my question is, has anyone else felt with this and how did you over come it?

The purpose of this general is to encourage people to go /out/ and find cool fossils and artifacts. This thread is also a place to share our own collections and things we find when we are /out/ hunting.

Rules are as follows,
>To just post and discuss fossils and other related geological subjects.
>When you post about a fossil in your collection, please label it with what formation it is from, what it is, and where in the world it is from.
>If you don't know where it originated or the species that is ok, just label it as so
>You can post rocks and minerals as long a they are ones that you have found while /out/

1. All of Che's travels are contained south of the Darien Gap. It's got no bearing whatsoever on your ability to follow his path.
