Could you use grounded down asphalt instead of rocks or any other alternative if you for example lacked charchoal?

>He wants to filter his water through asphalt
Disgusting, but would probably work. For large particles, mind you, not instead of sand or charcoal.
>>
>>2858486
As a replacement for charcoal, no. Look into activated charcoal as for why.

>>2858486
Friendly reminder that carrying melee weapons is retarded.
>Carry melee weapon
>Die in first fight to guy with gun
>Carry melee weapon's weight in bullets
>Have fighting chance for several fights.
Also friendly reminder most extraordinary situations are temporary and local. Even a civil war is generally temporary, and that's really about the upper edge of realistic and survivable SHTF events.

Post the webm of Russians filtering water through wet wipes.

dude its the future you can BUY water filters.

>>2858486
You're still gonna have to boil it (or some other purification method), that's just getting dirt and particulates out of the water. Same idea with using a cloth to filter water before boiling it.

>General survivalism thread i guess
There's a lot of woodcraft/bushcraft stuff online, the 10 C's of survival is a good starting point for an outdoors survival pack (each C is a category, not a single item). It depends what you want to do and how long you'll be out for the direction you'll go with what you pack, but you'll probably want to add some hygiene stuff and a mess kit. Then you'll want some first aid stuff, including common daily things you take for granted when home like pain pills or anti-diarrhea medication or chap-stick. If you're packing a firearm when you go outdoors, you'll want stuff to treat a gunshot wound (so a typical IFAK with a TQ, prepmedic on youtube has some good content for putting that sort of stuff together). And whatever tools and stuff you get, you'll have to be trained on it otherwise it could be entirely useless to you. And if you really want to be prepared, you should have either a sat-phone or some sort of satellite device to get cell service because shit happens even when you're fully prepared and trained. No reason not to use modern technology to survive.

There's woodcraft/bushcraft courses you can take, stop the bleed courses, and any other sort of training like that would help. Learn to hunt, fish, trap, raise animals, and grow food. Actually taking a course and doing a hands-on use of the information with an instructor will be more helpful than just watching a few YouTube videos. Or you could watch some videos and simply try doing it in your backyard, even if you keep having to go back in your house to get something you forgot, better to forget in your backyard than out in the wilderness where you're now risking hypothermia, dehydration, exhaustion, or death. /out/ would probably be a better board for asking this though.

Right lads, gonna post pages from a favorite book of mine. It's from the early '70s, a bit hippie-ish, but it's pretty good stuff. Even includes some recipies. If you can find a print copy, by all means do, but it's on the archive.
>>
>>2858497
It's definitely got a "back to the land communal living" vibe but not in some insane antifa way.
>>
>>2858498
A mix of survival, camping, hiking, gardening, fishing, hunting, crafts, etc. Even a few recipies on some pages.
>>
>>2858499
It's also definitely tailored to the eastern half of America. I do like the illustrations.

kind undersells just how poisonous poke weed can be if you fuck up. It's not a "oh I'm shitting by brains out" poison, it's a "oh my diaphragm is paralyzed" poison

Last page, sort of. There's a month-by-month calender at the end that talks about when to do what.

Again, I highly recommend grabbing a copy if you can find it. A bit dated in some areas, but overall good.

You know. You could have at least linked it.

No prob senpai. There's something pure and honest about these old homestead/survival books. No "I was a Green Delta Marine for 69 years and killed six million Vietcong in the Gulf War!" tryhard shit.

>Could you use grounded down asphalt instead of rocks
No, I don't think "rocks with oil and tar" really make a good substitute for "rocks."

If you can't find fucking rocks, don't worry, you won't be finding water to filter, you're dead cityfag.
