DIY Zelph Fancee Feast. Still have enough bondo sheet to make another 3 stoves and another tomato paste can that I bought figuring I'd screw up the first one. But it's so simple, I didn't/couldn't...

Depends on what their definition of 'experienced hiker' entails. Some people have experience hiking big miles, camping, sprouting, cooking, and roughing it. Does Trambo have all the above...

And that's the wonderful difference between radiant heat and infrared heat. Infrared heats the surface of objects within a direct sight line of the source (hot coals), and depending on environmental...

As strange as it may sound, have you ever taken the pad out of the equation? I mean try hitting 20 miles in a day with your full backpack, exactly what you would be carrying, and go back to your...

Very nicely thought out. I use an almost identical picture of the vista off the parking area near trout run road on the bft, the angle and the fog are almost perfect.

One note, about 2 months...

There's a big beautiful world of charcuterie out there.

Forget mincemeat, make some pate, confit, or rillete. Not exactly suitable for a through hike, but very applicable to section hikes when...

My 2 cents: Body language can make or break those situations. If the conversation is predominantly English, in good spirits and your friend does the shifty eye scan and whispers to you, it can give...

Thanks! And just to bump thread to the top. Love to not only find out something food related (occupational interest) but also love to see historical reference to it, not just some guru touting the...

Quite right. After I got all the bases covered with budget frugal items, now I plan on spending one Benjamin ($100US) on some upgrade each time I go out (3x/yr), and usually spend a bit more. It's...

So.... what is penoile? Google isn't helpful and apparently believes me to be looking for food to cure....ahem.....a soft subject. Someone help while I clear out my search history.

Personal favorite:
Cheddar redskin mashed flavor + kielbasa diced up (~6 ounces)

Full dinner right there.

That's the post that hits the nail on the head IMO.

Having not even been packed up and had two individuals regardless of age/physical ability want to invite themselves into what I've deemed my...

This past summer I dropped near my base weight off my body weight. Started my last hike imagining 'Boy, this'll be like a dayhike.' Nope. Don't get me wrong, it was a far better experience, but...

Casio ABC watch is fun enough to make it worth it over the Ironman or gshock. Being that more than half my hiking trips have little or no cell service, my phone is only a camera except for the drive...

We got the possibility of a good frost coming up on Thursday night, so you might get to see some beginnings of shade changes. I just did the west rim trail a week ago and several soft woods were...

Yup. I capsized after an elevation drop (barely can call it a rapid), in 50* water, about the same air temp, a good 15mph breeze, and had another 5 miles to row to get back to our vehicles. That...

Only works if someone sees it and takes it seriously. Maybe a light aircraft might radio it in if you're lucky, and then your hoping that the message with coordinates gets passed along to people...

Spirit of the responses reminds me a little bit of an interesting opinion article regarding runners addiction to the lifestyle and passively flaunting it with commererative tshirts and 13.1/26.2 car...

Second'ing this post as well.
And I'll even add that I depend on the terrain and topo lines to orient myself before I ever start digging into my memory of how to begin to use the compass. That...

Mine was about $25 on some deal. I love that the first push of the button is low red, then the rest depending on what you want.

I'm still a novice, but the method that's been working for me is...

Just to update, woke up to the local news reporting that virtually all bridges across the Swatera Creek are closed this morning. Flood stage is at 7 feet, we're at 15+ now. Don't know the exact...

Kinda curious how you persuade a rattle snake to mosey off the trail?
This past week included a trip to the Black Forest Trail in PA that featured one stubborn rattle snake at a vista probably just...

Second this post.
Still quite a novice, experience limited to short planned trips, I've evolved from various types of gorp to separating the sweet and savory. Due to virtually useless hip belt...

So happy with my first pair of the model the OP described, I just got a replacement pair off the academy website for $39. NB has never struck me as quality, I've been brand faithful for about 15...

Its not just Penn State, I have a friend that was attempting to arrange a powerlifting meet as a staff member at a prominent university in NY. After getting clearances for meetings, building space,...
