The snowy world you grew up in no longer exists. There are those out there who made billions depriving you of snowy winters.
>>2876250The absolute weight of the bomb comment.. crazy
>>2857989I don't even think its greenhouse gases or whatever. Its simply just heat. We as human civilization create a ridiculous amount of heat. Its the simplest and most logical explanation.
>>2876270>We as human civilization create a ridiculous amount of heat. Its the simplest and most logical explanation.You are incredibly stupid if you think that is "logical." Humans produce negligible amounts of heat compared to the 1361 W / m^2 that the Earth receives from the Sun.
>>2876497Now the surface of the Earth is Roughly 1.29499406e+14 m2. Only 1/2 is pointed at the sun, so let's say on 1/4 of it gets the full 1361 watts. That's 1.7624869e+17. Humans produce very roughly 1.9e+12 watts. So 10000 times less.
>>2876500dangyouuuu!,,,Mister Sun!
Are you going? Part of a camp or not? How should somebody prepare?
Fuck no, I wouldn't be caught dead at fucking Burning Man, or Rainbow Gathering, or any of those fucking bullshit things. Find me on BLM/National Forest land with my homies. Or don't, actually.
>>2875695Yes and yes. Costs have ballooned to an impractical point, this is by design. It's trying to prevent normal people from camping. >>2875730No.
>>2875737Because you and the homies dont want to be disturbed eh You dirty dogs
>>2875737Burning man is held on the same spot of BLM land every year, they even have a permit. The rainbow gathering is generally held in some national forest
>>2875737>BLM/National Forest land with my homiesThat's basically what Burning Man or Rainbow Gathering is.

>>2875531You should organize a special needs hike. You all would have more in common than you think.
>>2875501he thinks a common phenomena is something special, and now is obsessed with itit sounds like he gets really invested in stupid random bullshit a lot
One time i thought I heard something but the i was wrong and then I lived my life like normal instead of dwelling on mishearing something like some opt in skitzo.

OP, are you the same idiot who thought an oak tree in a clearing was a clear sign of satan worship?
i get a ton of leftover water from making pasta and other cooking stuff, but that water has salt in it, starch at that or when it comes to baking there might be sugar in it. none of those are good for a garden, salt kills, starch idk and sugar attracts bugs. is there a way to purify those? it feels like a waste to toss it all away down the drain, because those are several liters that could be used.
>>2875402How long were you a lake before being incarnated as a human?
>>2875386You could build a passive condenser using the sun.A large flat black container with an angled lid that collects condensation and runs it off into a collection container.But your yield of clean water would be pretty low, not really cost effective.
>>2875386You're overthinking anon, just throw it outside and let the soil handle it. Your pinch of salt in the pasta water isn't going to do shit
What climate are you in? Salting really only is a problem in areas which don't have the rainfall to flush it. Salts are minerals anon, plants like minerals to grow. I I dilute seawater and use it as a foliar spray for trace minerals. Semi-humid subtropics here.
>>2875386>is there a way to purify those?The starch in pasta water is a Good Thing. And you don't need to put salt in your pasta water.

>>2876442>>2875476If you have a tight group it’s the way to backpack. I backpack with two girls I used to film content with. We basically assign roles: tent & habitat, water & necessities, food & emergency. Responsibilities for planning are split up, then before trip we weigh everything out and distribute. The smaller girl is only 5’1” (perfect pear body) so generally we let her carry some denser items while me (5’10) and the other (5’7” thin but firm and fit) carry longer packs with more flexibility. We once filmed content in the woods but I swear the animals heard us and gathered round to watch.
Zpacks has a lightweight 3 person which can possibly fit 4 if you really like the other person
>>2875399Walmart tents are heavy?You one of them Onions boys I keeps hearin' bouts??

when did realtree edge become streetwear ? this used to be a show of character -- that you'd wear this if you were a hunter with grit and interesting pasttime. now it's just for douchebag zoomers whose only hobby is being bad at managing their mcdonald's paychecks. how gay is that ! anyone else feel like putting their balls in these people's mouths ? read this sentence if you agree.
A lot of people will wear their hunting jacket because it’s usually the warmest article of clothing they own
Realtree is y2k grunge drip now unc. I got a realtree carhartt #workwear jacket that shits tuff
>>2874818No cap? Frfr? Ong?
>>2866235>this used to be a show of character -- that you'd wear this if you were a hunter with grit and interesting pasttimeThis was only ever the case in your imagination
>>2868184I once had a white collar suit nerd compliment me on my flecktarn jacket. Anon is correct, no one cares as long as the spaghetti stays in yr pocket.
why do people say the desert smells good when it rains?i was out in Arizona and Utah and whenever it rained it smelled like a public urinal
>>2876173Ok but what if its poop?
>>2876133>it smelled like a public urinalA lot of people lose their virginity in public urinals and the smell brings back pleasant memories from their youth.
>>2876142Very informative, I’ll remember this. Thank you for the knowledge :)
>>2876133for me its the sagebrush that smells incredible but we're in the high desert here.

>>2876039>we've never had smoke here beforeHistorical data says otherwise but I understand that zoom zooms never are able to comprehend that the world didn't pop into existence the moment they were born. Just because this is the first time you've had this particular experience doesn't mean it is novel or unprecedented. It doesn't happen at this scale every year but it does happen at this scale once in a while. This won't be the last time you smell smoke from Canadian wildfires but maybe next time you'll see people panicking like you are and understand the annoyance people have with you today acting like this is some unique situation.
>>2876445>ummmm actually, if we look at the historical data we can see that the same thing happened 100 years ago therefore it's normalThis is not normal. I've lived in Virginia for 15 years and it hasn't happened in that time and I've talked to people who have lived here a lot longer and never saw this. A fire spreading smoke this thick from 1000 miles away is not normal, at all, you fucking retard.>pointing out that something is extremely unusual means you are... le panicking!no. Wtf is wrong with you? Are you an actual ESL? You don't understand basic English.
>>2876445>>2876451I live in columbus oh and it was the worst recorded air quality to date. I was stuck outside all day for work, but it didnt bother me much other than boogers. The next day a storm blew it away.Tldr yr a fag
>>2876451>A fire spreading smoke this thick from 1000 miles away is not normalYou really are not the sharpest pencil in the shed, are you?
>>2876451I'm further east then you, in Québec. We get smoke from Manitoba, Ontario or even North Québec wildfires every few years. Smoke getting from northern Québec to Estrie is surprising, because the wind basically never blows due south. A smoke plume stretching 1000 miles is not surprising nor particularly exceptional.
Hey frens, im not much an /out/ person, but I took my daughter by the coast and we saw some people fishing into the Atlantic and she thought it looked maybe fun. I probably havent fished since I was a kid, but id like to start and show her how. I dont want to invest a whole lot, and want to avoid a spinner reel for her, cuz she wouldnt be using one when she's older.Im in new england, not far from the ocean, Walden pond, a lake, some rivers.Im coming to you guys for advice because i dont trust a google search. All advertisements. I figure some of you guys are anglers. Please, aside from a license, what do I need to get started?
>>2876276Go to the fishing thread and ask.You do want to get a spinning reel. A spincaster is not good, but a spinning reel is. Baitcaster exist, but they are not a good option in your case.
>>2876364he has seen thoose tiktok vids of guys with small baitcasters or he just watched jaws, idk. i love my ambassadeur and penn reels for trolling and deep sea fishing, but nothing beats spinning reel for casting. its ironic since many reels like the ambassadeur where designed and marketed as long casting reels and they can do it they just suck so hard compared to doing it with a spinning reel.
Two questions. Do you have a boat? How old are we talking? It matters.The big thing people whiff on when getting kids into fishing/hunting is usually not getting them enough action and focusing on the kids instead of just bringing them along on what they were doing anyway. An 8 year old is going to have a much better time at a busy dove field or watching beagles chase rabbits than they will sitting in a cold as balls deer stand thirty feet off the ground scared shitless. Fishing isn’t any different. Focus on pan fish and keep the tempo as high as possible. If you’re allowed to set multiple lines cut one up and toss it out and if you’re lucky they’ll get a good sized catfish for a big score. I wouldn’t really try to start a kid off on something like fly fishing until they’re a teen personally. 10-12 I’d throw them in the boat with live bait and haul in some bass. If you’re far enough north maybe rent out one of those fancy ice fishing set ups or take them crabbing. Thats always a party pleaser.
Wow. Shucks guys, thank you. Gave up on this thread after that jerk.>>2876364Was to make sure, as im clueless>>2876409Sorry, im more a /ck/ and /fit/fph/ kinda guy. My dumb ass didnt even check for a fishing thread. >>2876422Shes 10. No boat, but my boss has one and likes to fish, so maybe that way. We got a few places with bass close by. Ponds, lakes, a river, the ocean... got options. I see some of the knots and removing hooks will be tricky for her. She likes sitting and chilling though, so well see.Some other stuff I was wondering, do I bring a cooler with me for the fish? Hammer to kill it? Any hammer? When bleeding out the fish, is their a good knife for it? Where do you customarily let fish bleed out onto?Ive heard decent things about some spinner bait and rubber worms, but if live, what do you recommend? I dont think she'd go for a minot. Ive had luck with clam before. Is there a type of line I should keep an eye out for? Any specifications on the rod to be aware of? My luck i get all the wrong things, you know?And thank you
>>2876457>KnotsJust learn some basic ones you don’t need to know how to tie a Bimini for bass and bluegill>Cooler?Ideally two. One for drinks and one for fish>HammerNo filet knife if anything but I just throw mine into the ice and they’re gone quick and clean.>Rubber wormsI’ve had better luck with top water rattlers but nothing is better than live minnows in my opinion.>Line?Really not super important. 12 lbs test.

>>2875904I have to drive through central Oregon this weekend. Should I just change my plans and take a longer route?
>>2875933you can visit me, but it's smokey here where i'm at.
>>2875904But it's obviously a Chinese hoax bro
>>2875904People pretending like there hasn't been massive amounts of Arson all around the country for the past few years are either shills or horribly misinformed by media and the climate change narrative.I've been monitoring the fires on this continent since the Palisades fire made it clear that there were multiple Arsonists, which were reported on radio chatter at the time spotted leaving sites in trucks with gas cans in the back.Many other fires around the country via the same chatter has been traced to arsonists even when they don't end up catching the guy.Don't get me wrong, everything is dry right now and that is obviously a huge reason why we're seeing so many fires. But don't forget that this is happening because corporations like the Wonderful Company owned by Jewish businessman Stewart Resnik have been sinking massive amounts of our water supply underground in tanks and pipes, and effectively cutting off at least 20% of most available water from the water cycle. Arson is rampant, and they want you to believe it's actually all climate change so they can continue to regulate your lives more.https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/saskatchewan/ditch-2-fire-sentencing-rescheduled-9.7192121https://www.ctvnews.ca/northern-ontario/article/quebec-man-charged-with-setting-bush-fires-in-northern-ont/https://www.kptv.com/2026/08/01/man-charged-with-15-counts-arson-after-series-fires-malheur-county/https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cx2w0k5zzryo

>offer no protection against ankle eversion or inversion roll>offer no gains in transfer of load to footbed>heavier>longer to put on take off (kek)>less comfortable>need high socks anyhowliterally why are you wearing high top or mid hiking boots?>they look good on womenyeah I will concede that point
>>2875439Could you pick a faggier looking shoe as an example?
high tops are good only if you can lace them tight, because it's much harder to roll an ankle. imporant if you are climbing on rocks, roots, or holes. decades of skateboarding taught me that though.
>>2875167
>>2875884>high tops are good only if you can lace them tight, because it's much harder to roll an ankleunfortunately we can all use scholar.google.com now and there is zero evidence high top boots laced tight or not have any impact on ankle eversion. The army has millions and millions of data points saying it’s not the case. Only bracing prevents ankle rols.
I took the sandal pill thanks to sandal anon. He made a convincing argument. I realized I only want to be wearing sandals whenever I'm not hiking, so what if I could just wear them while hiking also?
