I kinda like being in this part

>>2863923
Not very experienced but :
It's very different if your gear can be dried by a few hours of sun the day after, or if you go for multiple days of continuous rain and moisture.

Have some kind of tarp to protect the tent and create some dry spot where you can stay, organize stuff, change clothes... A big leafy branch can do half of this, but big branches falling on you can be an issue in some places.
Make sure you have dry clothes to wear inside your tent.
Sometimes a simple garbage bag doubling your backpack inside (and even more cheap bags) is better than a raincover.
Suspend what you can where you can to at least drain water.
Dry your feet and try not to stay in moist shoes for days.

Don't get wet

>>2863582
CO2 poisoning isn't a thing, you actually need sufficient CO2 levels to maintain the bohr effect. Worst you'll get is a headache. For CO poisoning, don't run an exhaust into your tent.

Don't camp in a hottent. It's literally that easy

>>2864639
>>2864576
Copy that, loud and clear.
Although, what else shouldn't I do while camping?

>>2864120
Yes, why do you ask?

Oh shit.
Do you have stairs in your house?

I've heard that drowning is one of the most peaceful ways to die. My question is how the hell can anyone know that? Anyone who has drowned is... dead.

>>2861024
*painful
Not peaceful lol

>>2861024
You have the testimony from drowned people who have been resuscitated. Once you get past the parts they've experienced, it's "just" passing out from lack of oxygen and your body shutting down, bit by bit.
People describe a desperate struggle to breathe remaining air and holding their breath until they are no longer able, and then an intensely burning sensation as the lungs fill with water. After a while of that, they pass out.

>>2860749
If you're doing such deep dives, you're either very interested in what you're doing and don't mind it, or you're getting sufficiently compensated for it to not mind it.
For your regular compressed-air diver, it's no big concern, you just don't dive that deep. That's for the technical divers with their mixed gasses.

>>2860221
>I associate line signals with the old bell divers back in the day.
if it works it works.

So this is where you people went. I was sad when the /xs/ thread died shortly before my first dive.
Question, is there any chance that an average town dive club will teach you to dive without a BC? It seems a real neat skill to have, but I get the impression that most consider it "unsafe".

>>2864571
only goy fumes

>>2862711
Correct, but because they don't have an /out/ culture. Bongs don't travel anywhere to go /out/, which is really weird considering their history.

Corsicas 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 fauna

also 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

>>2862711
You 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

I've wandered the redwoods which I guess are old growth on account of many of them predate Julius Caesar. But sadly from New England everything was clear cut by about 1840. Couple small patches of old growth out in the Berkshires apparently

>>2864739
There’s a few old growth spots left on the edges of the Everglades that ive been in. It is a primeval feeling to stand next to thousand year old cypress trees. In North Carolina I think theres a 2000+ year old cypress stand too

>>2864739

I've been to some in deep northern California. It was awesome to see them in person. Pictures didn't capture the density of vegetation correctly.

yeah
lilley cornett woods in eastern ky is nice, but you gotta call them and reserve a day to hike in advance and its a guided hike
i still havent asked what happens if you have to poop I assume they make you bring a poop bag and pack it out
:( but they do have bathrooms at the visitors center for before and after the hike

>>2864739
10 minute walk and I got one right here in Sweden.

>>2863732
Wind and rain, yeah.

I like Columbia. You'll definitely want to get a hardshell coat due to the wind.

No. Please look at wiggy's website. I cannot understate this. if you're willing to compromise on size and weight, wiggys synthetic beats western mountaineering down every time. They make jackets too. Buying their antarctic bag toppled 6 years of knowledge I thought I had. Synthetic is legit the answer.

>>2863591
Duluth Trading has nice jacket and parka called Insulator. Made with a special insulation that keeps you very warm. I tried mine this winter snow shoveling and it really felt nice in the cold.

>>2863591
Get a layering system rather than one big jacket.

>thick insulation layer
>insulating vest
>thin insulating layer

>>2863835
There are plenty of outdoor jobs that do have the kind of position you're looking for. However, there are very few positions like that because there are few positions for outdoor jobs in general. A lot of times these jobs don't even get posted because the guy in charge of hiring either knows someone or knows people who know someone who can and will do the job. A lot of people think they can hack it in an /out/ job only to quit in the first year because they can't handle actually working outside. Employers know this and so they obviously favor hiring someone they personally know can handle it, or has the experience/recommendations to prove they can.
A degree in some outdoors related field (i.e. wildlife, forestry, etc.) will almost always have you do some kind of field work to get through the program. That's why a lot of the time the degree itself doesn't matter as much, just the fact that it's outdoors related is good enough(I know a ton of guys in forestry who went to school for wildlife.)
But if you don't have any way to show that you're committed to working hard, you'll have a hard time finding a job through online postings and the like unless you find a company that just really needs to hire someone asap to fill a position.

It says it is 15-25w but testing in the field says it is more like 2-5w. That is irrelevant to me because I am building a 2.0 from the ground up starting with the prop.

Let me just say again I do not need this. I carry power banks and a big blue I just think it is a very unique product and one that a non greedy person like me could improve, and for some people it will be better than a solar setup like the big blue. It's really not that serious guys but I wouldnt be surprised if someone here had one despite the sales stopping in 2023.

>>2863866
just build it already it's literally a waterproof DC motor wired to a rectifier and then a buck converter. What are you waiting for ?

>>2863866

this is more like it, i almost believe this
>I am building a 2.0 from the ground up
its impossible, dont even bother trying. this is like those old scams about a self filling water bottle. technically it works but is comically impractical


solar is better than this shit, lighter and fits nicely on the top of your pack

>>2863865

>>2863841
Why people are getting tricked with the same scam schemes over and over again? The 99,99% of cool sounding thingamajigs are actually impractical and exist only to drain money from retards.

Such a small turbine will produce minuscule and finding suitable place to use it will be tricky at best and impossible at worst. You'll be standing knee-deep in water for hours and waiting for your Ifag phone to slowly charge?

also, know that some alcohols burn invisible flame in the sun.

check flame is absolutely out and recipient cool before refillng.

check safety issues on alcohol stoves!!!

>>2860143
google for fancy feast alcohol stove or cat food can alcohol stove, it's the simplest setup you can have and is dead easy to make. I've made one, and a windscreen from two cut open soda cans + paperclips. It burns denatured rubbing/fuel alcohol which you can literally buy exactly anywhere in the world for cleaning/disinfecting purposes, and while it's not fast, it's enough. Also in case some absolute n00b is reading this: no, you do not burn whiskey/wine/vodka in these stoves (someone on /out/ argued alcohol stoves were bad because alcohol iss expensive - turns out he thought you literally burn vodka in these)

He's casting a spell

George Floyd was a man with a unique talent. He was a tour guide, but not of the usual kind. His tours were of the inside of his ass, and he had a long list of eager participants - small children. You see, George suffered from severe hemorrhoids, which caused him immense discomfort and itchiness. He needed someone to help him relieve the pain, and who better than small, curious children with their small, nimble fingers?
He would invite them into his home, promising them an adventure they wouldn't forget. Once inside, he would bend over and ask them to explore the "cave" he had discovered in his ass. Of course, it wasn't a real cave, but the inside of his rectum. The children, unaware of the truth, would eagerly climb inside, their tiny hands exploring the "stalactites" and "stalagmites" that George had pointed out. Little did they know that these were actually his enlarged hemorrhoids.
As they explored, George would stutter and shudder, his body reacting to the sensations. He couldn't help but make rhymes about his ballsack, his aids, and his tourettes. Despite the awkwardness of the situation, the children seemed to enjoy themselves, giggling and squealing as they discovered new "formations" inside George's ass.
For George, this was more than just a way to relieve his pain. It was an opportunity to bring joy to the lives of these young ones. He knew that his ass wasn't a real cave, but he was determined to make their experience unforgettable. And as for himself, he was determined to leave each tour with a less itchy asshole.
As the years went by, George's tours became more popular among the local children. They would come back time and again, eager for another adventure in his "cave." Some even brought their friends along, creating a small community of young explorers. And while some parents may have been concerned about their children's safety or sanity, George remained undeterred. He knew that he was providing a service, however unconventional it may be.

I saw a jeet playing curry music on his phone, then when I got to a scenic overlook, I heard him with ANOTHER jeet. That was really scary

No. Just get a pair of pit vipers.

I have Leupold sunglasses and I can't recommend them enough.

They look good, they're durable, they're impact rated as safety glasses, but above all they are comfortable. I can wear them 16 hours a day no problem.

>>2864537
>she only works 16 hours a day
lol i bet those glasses match your purse
>>2864519
op you want a pair of pit vipers, we all wear them 32 hours straight every day on the rig

Nice - I'm looking to get one of those soon. (But the Poverty version, they're still damn expensive.)
Left picrel in plain site of the road intending to go straight back out and got sidetracked.
Next morning found someone decided they needed it more than me.
That was 3 weeks ago - I've given up hope of seeing it again.

conversion kits seem promising. You just turn an existing bike into an ebike. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/RRN16nVmQz0

I'll be looking for the best torque for mine since I need it for climbing a road that goes up a mountain

>>2864431
the kits are the best. the are very easy to convert and you have lots of different options. i spent $1400 on a rad powerbike and there is nothing special about it. the big drawback to it is replacement parts or upgrades. most of the ebike companies use special wire connectors so you have to go back to them for replacements. a control box from rad powerbikes is $99 but you can get a generic one on Amazon for $30. its like that for everything on the bike too. the kit is best but i. would suggest to buy the battery seperate from the kit so you can get a bigger battery. i use a big battery for a electric 4 wheeler on my bike. also the front wheel kit is simpler than rear wheel. or you could do both front and back and have an awd bike

>>2864431
>best torque
every electric motor that has the wattage to push you up a hill will have enough torque. electric motors in general always have ridiculous torque
torque was made for combustion engines, they need to have enough force to spin around and do another revolution, if the wheels are bogged down enough (by gravity, air resistance or an actual bog) and cant do a revolution then the engine doesnt have enough force to do so. interestingly enough force and torque is measuring the same thing in different units. an electric motor doesnt need to rotate all the way around to put power down like an engine does, it just needs to keep getting the power from the battery and it will keep trying to spin even if itll break itself doing so

My friends and I would "liberate" shopping carts by sending them back into the woods that surrounded the grocery store. You'd run full tilt with the cart and launch it as far as you could, as deep as you could

idk why but it felt good, not rebellious or stupid or anything, genuinely freeing

I goatfished. Obviously with no hook at all, just hay attached to the fishing line.

From my early teenage years, many things with fireworks like exploding cow dungs, battles with rotten apples or melons, rafts built with phytochemical barrels.

Use to skin rabbits and hang them by the neck from rope off trees so people thought it was a bloody baby hanging over a road.

A fairly common one is poachers killing bears and leaving the corpses around. A skinned bear paw with the claws removed looks VERY similar to a skinned human hand.

Love my 7x9 wedge tent and rope bed. And my tents poles fit inside my hatchback from the back window to my windshield.

It's sad to see so many of the OG's who started this back in the 1960-1970 either retiring from the hobby or dying off and family/friends are selling there stuff. But at the same time you get fantastic deals especially the more expensive stuff like my tent. $250 with poles and stakes.

Really depends on what you want. If you just want some stuff to larp in, Townsends and Samson Historical are fine. If you want something that's actually accurate, you'll want to sew them yourself. You can buy patterns and fabric from businesses like Burnley & Trowbridge or Wm. Booth, Draper, and there's a lot of tutorials on youtube.

I had my first winter walk at woods in early medieval outfit yesterday (it was about 23°F) and I am shocked how warm wool is. I had linen layer, wool layer and thin wool cloak and it was warmer then my normal jacket

wanna try to go simple with a bedroll (GDR army tarp from waxed linen containing a russian and a german army wool blanket) For insulation and comfort, what would be a proper substitute for a foampad? fur could work but it would add lots of weight. Any ideas? I dont want to larp for specific era, moreso go with oldschool gear and no/minimal plastic

>>2864364
I couldn't stand sleeping on the ground even with a foam pad so I went with a Kephart roll from Buschraft Spain (hammock/cot/pad/bag hybrid), added a king>queen size 95% Arcturus Lake Tahoe Wool so I could taco wrap two layers of wool around me. Also added a Thornhill HEX canvas tarp and put it all up with 550 Atwood paracord.

The Kephart can be used as a pad because it can store leafs/moss etc inside of it. Duluth Pack got their own version of it but it was too expensive for me.
