Religious Utah MORMON father charged with TORTURE and child abuse for taking his little kids on a way-too-hard hike:

https://archive.is/lPaqu

the trail in question where he was found with his 8 year old daughter, and 2 and 4 year old son:
https://www.alltrails.com/trail/us/utah/broads-fork-trail

It's 2000 ft of elevation gain over 2.2~ mi each way so pretty steep.

Initially, some news reports hailed the rescue and the father’s efforts to keep the children alive in unforgiving conditions. There was even a GoFundMe fund-raiser, where Mr. Smith was said to have suffered frostbite in trying to keep the children safe, The Salt Lake Tribune reported.

Two of the children were in critical condition after they were found, the sheriff’s office said after the rescue, and one was in stable condition. Mr. Smith was in fair condition, the statement said.

District Attorney Sim Gill of Salt Lake City said during a news conference that the children were told to “march on” despite being afraid and that the path Mr. Smith took, known as the Broad Fork Trail, was “not an easy hike that you would take a child upon.”
Mr. Gill also said that the children discussed climbing over “rocks that were slipping” and having to hold onto vegetation as they were trying to hike.

I want to become more outdoorsy, but I have little to no knowledge of how. I wanna start fishing, camping and hiking, but I have no clue how to start. I don't trust myself to even start a bonfire. But at the same time, I don't have any friends or family that are into this stuff. Any tips?

>I wanna start fishing
Go to walmart, get the cheapest rod/reel combo (really doesn't fucking matter what you get). Get a float, a 3/0 or 4/0 hook, some nightcrawlers and a couple of mepps spinners. Go to any body of water and fish. Trial and error. Feel a nibble and pull to set the hook. Do that for a few hours and youll catch something.
>camping
Wait for spring/early summer. You'll be miserable this time of year. Buy a tent, sleeping mat and sleeping bag. If you're cheep you can get all that for under $100. None of it will be nice, but you'll be camping. See if you enjoy it. See what you like and don't like. It'll inform you of where you actually want to spend your money. Find a camp site near you, they're everywhere and usually very cheep.
>hiking

>I don't trust myself to even start a bonfire
Don't start a bonfire then. If you want a little fire while camping buy a portable fire bit (you can get them for $40), some wood and a some firelighters. You don't have to be bear grylls on your first trip. Start comfortable and cheap, build up from there.
>>
>>2845786
You can start just by spending a couple nights outside in your own back yard, trying out some gear, learning how it works, becoming comfortable with using it. As well as figuring out which items you'll need to take with you while you're still right at home and can go grab them.

Once you've done that you can look up some parks near you that have sites for tent camping and drive out there for an overnight. Check the weather beforehand to see if it will be cold or rainy, you can still camp in those conditions if you know what you're doing but I wouldn't recommend it for someone who is just starting out.

Also before you go for an outing you should make sure someone knows where youre going and how long you plan on staying there. You probably won't end up in a situation where someone needs to send a search party, but it's good practice to do that just incase, especially if you're going to be camping alone.

Camping alone also isn't really recommended for someone just starting out but if you really can't find someone to go with you, you should do just fine if you're playing it safe and only going to established car campgrounds in parks.

Leather petch

Obviously idk about the specific measurements for a spear (much less polearms) but what i do know is that for personal use (outside of formations) the total length must be at least close to the height of your doorframe (210cm) but i'm going for the shortest end which is 180cm. The shaft would be 150cm long and the spearhead 30cm, again CMIIW because i'm using the same ratio for straight swords.

The blacksmith recommended me using sleipner steel or D2 for the spearhead, sleipner costs around 191 usd and D2 149 usd, for the shaft he hasn't given me any specifics yet.

For the design, i'm currently going rather simple as starters but suggestions are welcome.

Any advice?

This more or less. This bushcrafting shit is idealistic and utopian, and if tried it would be immediately crushed by a more efficient productive system. You can't even make capitalism work with a population that spread out. It would be less productive than even feudalism, probably.
