A lot of the Swiss Army Knives have a can opener blade (with a screwdriver). Multipurpose, and always in my pocket.

Interesting! Thank you, sir!
Curved does help. The ones I had access to were planted way back during the Dust Bowl year, and woven together to form tall hedges, to help break up the wind and keep soil in place. They were old...
They were fun to throw at each other, when I was a kid. Less fun to get hit with one. :) Another name for it is Osage Orange, and the wood is one of the top three best woods to make a bow,...
Thank you!
Agree, the Library lot. You can fill out an itinerary on line, and the police will cruise by it and make sure your car is OK.
Looks like fun. Thank you!
Silly question, but did you weigh the consumables (water, food, fuel, etc.) as part of your total weight? That could easily come to 10 pounds or so.
Thank you, sir!
I've "bought" free books that I thought were overpriced. A risk we take. :)
OOH! I need this one! Thank you..
I've been wearing contacts for 52 years now, and have always worn them while hiking and/or camping. I've worn hard lenses, soft lenses, overnight lenses (sadly, those didn't work for me), and most...
Quite a lot of discussion on food and cooking right here on Whiteblaze. https://whiteblaze.net/forum/forumdisplay.php/32-Cooking-and-Food
Wow, nice find! Thank you for sharing.
Had the same problem. Sometimes the free period is really short. Thank, perry, it's greatly appreciated.
Thank you, sir!
You're right, the ban has been lifted. Just in time! As soon as it gets a little warmer, I'm headed out to do that section, too.
We've found this book to be helpful. ...
According to the Tennessee Eastman Hiking & Canoeing Club (maintainers for that section), the ban was lifted sometime in January. http://tehcc.org/ I couldn't find other confirmation other than...
SAK Camper. Much like my old Scout knife,
My old Sierra cup from the '70's. Back then, they were worn hanging from the belt from the curved handle. It was a badge, of sorts, for the cool hikers. I never found that comfortable, so it rode...
Only thing I know of is Greasy Creek Friendly. It's only around 20 miles north of Erwin. Not sure how they've fared lately, so you might want to check. 868-688-9948.
Also, a very pretty little Forest Service campground on the creek, just south of Damascus, at Backbone Rock. https://www.recreation.gov/camping/campgrounds/251757
I did know that. Very sad, and not fair. Should have been on a trail, gone to bed and woke up dead. But as you pointed out, life isn't.
Some of the did pretty well at "ultralight" for over 100 years ago. If you read Woodcraft and Camping by Nessmuk (George Washington Sears), the author makes the claim that his canoe, extra clothing,...
