my golden retriever swimming after a duck in a canal. post any breed of bird dog doing anything
My old Boykin is gone to the happy hunting grounds now. His name was Davy Crockett
>>2866998Josie. My velcro dog. Got her from my bro inlaws sister who had to give up the dog after there daughter's healt complications. She came from a family of show dogs apperantly, but she just loved the outdoors and open fields more than prancing on astro turf. Great grouse and pheasant dog. She even points out rabbits and squirrels for me. Sadly she now is retired from hunting and spends her twilight years snoozing and taking short walks.
How do you niggas keep the creepy crawlies away in the warmer months? I hate ticks and I don't want to find one on my ballsack. Do you just spray DEET on my balls and hope for the best?
>>2863817Smoke cigarettes or burn citronella Smudge with sage rosemary or anything that burns You will stink and be comfy
>>2863921Buy a $200 sunshirt.
>>2863909There's a farmer who died because he hot permethrin on his balls trying to kill crabs, and iot was the farm-grade stuff.
>>2863817>How do you niggas keep the creepy crawlies away in the warmer months?Do mountaineering and camping only in the winter.No bugs at all.
>>2863817Deet and a hammock with mosquito net.
I got a apartment at ground level with a big terrace. My household of 3 people (wife and kid) produce waste such as coffee, eggshells, tealeaves, bones and lots of peels. If i wanted to do potatoes on my terrace, how would i best mix this (aside from bones and peels) into something that gives the soil nutrition? Do i just mix the grounds and eggshells in the soil or do i burn them beforehand and then mix the ashes?t. clueless and only knows how to take care of flowers
>>2867024>>2867026thanks. i live in a big fishing town and everywhere sells nightcrawlers and meal worms and i think even red wigglers. night crawlers are expensive (12 for $3) but the meal worms way cheaper. im looking for worm casting for my garden and food for my chickens. i make lots of kitchen scraps and just throw it in the compost pile but i think this may be a better use of them.
>>2867030this is what im gonna dohttps://m.youtube.com/shorts/Qhtmyl4QizI
>>2867038Looks good, hot tip = you can line the bottom of the actual worm tray with dampened newspaper or other thin paper to stop worms/debris from falling thru to the liquid layer. The paper will still drain and decompose later. I think it's only really a concern if youre using pure cardboard bedding though since it's very loose at first.Id be careful and make sure it's at least a good bait shop cuz personally ive bought wrigglers and nightcrawlers for fishing before that were clearly labeled wrong/half dead lol. Also some worms arent great composting worms for dif reasons, ex: ive heard canadian nightcrawlers start dying off at a comparatively low temp. Not sure if meal worms are good composters, but I know Jim's (online store) has those too so definitely shop around. 1/2 lb (500 count) of red wrigglers worms at meme's or Jim's is like 40-60 USD iirc
>>2866912
>>2867111the answer has been either bury them if you dgaf or small scale composting. they probably wont break down very quickly in containers though and might just attract pests/animals tbqh
Its astonishing when you think about it. An entire continent (safe for Russia and scandinavia) has been completely stripped of its nature
>>2862711Correct, but because they don't have an /out/ culture. Bongs don't travel anywhere to go /out/, which is really weird considering their history.
>>2862702Corsicas nice, live there and can do nature every day, tho continuum is kind of a mid metric imo, afaik a simple foot path ruins it even tho it doesn’t affect or endanger flora or faunaalso it’s not rlly isolated cause dickhead tourists keep making the trails lose all sense of immersion so I mostly hike in the off season when there’s a bit of snow However some valleys are a lot more lonely than others, find the right one and u can have some great isolation and forage provided nobody makes a tourism campaign for it
>>2862711You can go innawoods in replanted forests. Some have even been replanted to have a natural variety just for recreation. There is just less wilderness by the american definition; land that retains its primeval character and is untrammeled by man.
Sverige number ett
>>2862702It is a good thing.The nature is bad for you.It wants to kill you.The humans were not made to survive in nature. They are doomed in nature even with their gear and equipment. When it breaks it is over.
Why is it so expensive? It seems overpriced for a trekking pole tent.
>>2864996I have a $800 tent.
>>2864988wtf did you mean?>>2864996i didnt need it but i paid 1300€ for a tent and it has served me quite well, my nephew and his gf has used it, a friend used it, know i will never have to buy a tent ever again. its been along for 6years now. thats 6 years of not buying a shitty 100€ tent and not getting frustrated that it breaks when i need it the most.
>>2865021you are a euro so just go in your little hut and leave us alone dude
>>2865021euros don't do any real camping
>>2864551Because of greed.
Witch is the superior sleep system
>>2864673I don't even bother, same kind of people who pack those shitty walmart chairs that always rip.
>>2864673You clearly don't go out the self inflatables are solid and the gold standard of non car campers
>>2864201Op here going out I packed the inflatable matress
>>2864625jew jew jew jew jew jew jew jew jew jew
>>2864201I tried inflatable pads. I can no longer sleep without it.but it is 500 gr more of weight or more.
Will be going to central asia next winter and wondering what the best jacket is for temps that can get down to -30C. Does anyone have an opinion or should I just fork it out for a north face jacket that looks like shit. Will be tracking animals so can't be too bright or flashy. Any recs?
>>2863591work outside in northern albertaget insulated denim bib overalls and denim work coat with a deep hooddurable, flame resistant, cheap, and they come in mostly drab coloursinsulated work coveralls are warmer, but its harder to layer down and its harder to take a shitacrylic thermal socks are better, cheaper and warmer than woolget your boots bone fucking dry every night, bone fucking drya hooded dicky will keep heat from escaping through your neck holefull grain leather gloves with cheap glove liners are the best. on really cold days i have a pair of full grain leather mitttensonce the glove insulation gets dirty and oily it stops insulating, removable liners solves this problem, you can change them or wash them, and if you need to do fine finger shit you still have a layer of insulation on your handits good to have some face tape if it gets really windy
>>2866974sorry duck fabric, not denim
see if you can find a delta OL 3.0 somewhere
>>2863591In the case you're describing a layering system makes a lot more sense. If you're going from movement to static, you'll be changing layers constantly because there isn't a solution that makes sense for both. Get a windproof shell, a down insulation jacket under that, a wool or wool blend pullover, and long underwear.The insulation layer comes off when you're moving, then if you're static for long periods you can put it back on to warm up when it gets sniffly.When you're moving around, breathability (fabrics like Gore-TEX and neoprene) is absolutely invaluable, anything thick canvas or rubber or otherwise non-breathing will make you totally miserable when you start moving.
>>2863621>The key isn’t in the coat but rather in the layering and moisture managementThe end
are their backpacks still good?
>>2866889Looks like the same globalist shite that MEC turned into. By that, I would say no.
>>2866889ya the daylite is pretty much perfect for a day hike. i pretty much always take one with me when i go hunting. plus they will repair or replace any of their gear you send into them, no questions asked. they make good stuff and you can replace it every year for a new one if you want.
I have a Farpoint 40 and and a Daylte and love them both. the Farpoint I've travelled round the world with for over a decade now
>>2866889That pic you posted is more of an urban commuter bag, in my opinion and less an /out/ bag.I have the manta 24, its a great bag. The form factor is large for a daypack but since it has an internal frame it still carries well when its not filled. My only complaint is that the lumbar belt pockets are hard to close with one hand, since the pocket material isn't rigid enough to keep the zipper in line. It also creaks a little bit but that's really not a big deal for me.
Anyone use any sling bags for day hikes? If so, what sling bags do you guys use?
>>2866908I hate them because the uneven weight distribution throws off your whole posture.
Treesizeverse. They got more options on their Etsy page than their website.
>>2866908here is mine, i bought it in panajachel guatemala for $10. its based, i might try to make one with the next deer i shoot.
>>2866915This is exactly why I hate them too.
>>2866915>>2867087Thanks, I was thinking about one but this would bother me a lot
We can’t let it die
>>2865671>>2865862could you stop the corpo knob-gobbling for 5 minutes?because that what eco doomerism is.Just think how much money and power has been moved over the past 60 years scaring retards with "da erf is gonna git mad 'atcha is you don't gif me dah monies!!11">but Bill Gates told me...yeah son, yeah.Also, you should stop anthropomorphizing "nature" in general, but particularly if you going to continue to cast this fantasy into a parasocial relationship."Nature" will never love you.
>>2865671You don't understand OP, it's China's and India's turn to pollute the world. The West got to do it for decades, it would only be FAIR if we allowed these nations to destroy the atmosphere and oceans so they can have a summer house and 3 cars like us. Anything else would be racist. If the world has to die so we aren't racist, then so be it.
>>2865672Why stop at western? Why only the US? Are you some kinda effeminate cuck?
>>2865671mother nature give a tiny fuck and survived far worse than you shaved monkeys with your puny hydrogen bombs. just one or two millenia after mankind is gone this will be a paradise planet again.
>>2867076I hope so.
> Be me.> Taking a shit in the woods on a backpacking trip> Enjoying the feeling of being completely alone deep in the wilderness> being one with nature, etc. etc.> Finish up, burying my shit, I turn around and notice a trailcam pointed at me.> These fuckers are everywhere this year.> Ruining my primitive experience.>> At the very least, maybe they could be used to secure a camp site with monitoring and alerting while you sleep?> Still, I find the prospect of being on camera at all times, including private moments deep in the wilderness very disconcerting.
>>2866037Oh so you'll steal things if theres a low chance of getting caught or prosecuted?Tell us what other stuff you want to steal.
>>2866093Bird seed
>>2866184You realise that there's a high chance of an anvil falling on your head if you help yourself to the free birdseed that's just there for the taking, don't you?
>>2861380I go looking for mushrooms on a huge section of public land every year. You would not believe how many of these fucking things, and tree stands, I find that have been lost/ abandoned. I don't have any real issue with putting this shit in the woods,but for fucks sake, don't leave it there forever.
Hunting has gotten less and less /out/ and more luxurious larping
it's simplejust remove all nearby irrigation setups from existence
>>2863837just finish the siberian river reversal project, that was originally intended for this.
>>2865133good idea
>>2863853they'll move anyway in 30 years when the new dust bowl gives them all bronchitis
>>2864039OP's pic is not the salton sea, it's the aral, you /int/let
>>2865133cucking mongolia out of their theoretical ocean access would be funny
Today is the day lads. Frost earlier this week. Temperatures rising.No I won't tell you my spot.Post your spots in this thread.
>>2863929Right is Amanita phaloides. RIP if you eaten them.
>>2863929i lold
Went fishing with friends. Lost a fish at my feet, but at least, I got these morels.
>>2866564Nice haul. I only ever see one or two at a time and leave them be
any tips or general location on where I can find some morels in southeastern wisonsin, kettle morain area.i know its all hush hush and such, any general location would be great
I've never been hunting before, and my state requires you to take a student course to get your hunting license.Anyone do one of these? What am I in for?
>>2864767'Nother Norwegian here. Got my license a few years ago. What I remember is that it was VERY focused on the whole spectrum of huntable animals. We just had the bare minimum on how guns work, but they sure thought us all about waterfowl and the four types of seal. Anyway, the exam was dead easy and I forgot all of it when I walked out of the building. Notably, it's far harder to get a hunting license in Sweden, like; you actually have to hit long-off targets instead of "trying it out with a 22." Mabye to do with EU idk.
>>2864752got my hunting lisence at 15/16 through school. that and "traffic" (was approved as the theory of all 16 year old drivers lisences here) was the only usefull classes i had back then. it wasnt just knowing what to hunt, where and when and a day at the range but some good ole /out advise from experienced boomers. you cant deny the knowledge of boomer stories.ironicly one of these teachers drowned a few years back being just as irresponsible as he warned us not to be (fishing pissed drunk)then again, his mate now has a boomer story to teach younglings.
>>2864752Depends where you live, from what I understand North American hunting classes are pretty much to weed out anyone with a mental capacity behind an 8yr, very quick and easy to do. Outside NA there's a bit more to them, I know from talking to eurofags that some are actually fairly involved, the only hunting course I've done is the R-license course in in Australia which was easy.
>>2866808I can honestly get behind them drilling the boring bits. Everyone's going to get a gun and have fun shooting it and practicing it, nobody's going to sit down and study the difference between a great snipe and a woodcock, calibre and projectile requirements, "up to hare's size, but not hare", and a whole lot of the other technical stuff you learn.I don't think we'd be better served with a longer course either. It takes time and practice to develop good shooting technique, and that would make the course prohibitively expensive and long.
>>2864752>hunting license"land of the free"
What's with stealth camping content? Every time I look for videos about places I want to try I get a bunch of recommendations for various stealth camping videos, most of which look like very obvious click-bait. Is this a real hobby or are people just grifting?
>>2865597I regularly clear my jootube history and I get that shit regardless of browser or search history. It’s being pushed by someone for some reason but that’s all beyond me.
>>2865592It's certainly real, and it is fun. There isn't much to it either, hence the click bait.Find an out of the way spot with no sight lines, pitch a camo tent and then kick back. You are stealth camping!
>>2865592Never understood the fascination with stealth camping. I've spent the last 3 years as a vagabond traveling the country. Stealth camping is easy as hell. Find a wooded patch. As long as you pack in after dark and pack out before light you have a 99.9% chance of not being fucked with. Normies hardly leave their vehicle or house when they're not at work. Even if someone does spot your campsite there's a 99% chance they'll go "oh homeless person over there with a tarp better stay away" if they do decide to walk over just say "excuse me sir, do you have a dollar?" And they'll be sure to high tail it the fuck out of there fast

>>2865592Camping is illegal in my country so the only camping is stealth camping. Most videos are clickbait though, for me stealth camping is just keeping away from paths, no fires earthy colors, setting up late and leaving early.
