There is nothing wrong with someone wanting to carry a footprint, they have multiple uses not based on "fear". This "Don't carry your fears like so many do" mantra is over used, and can be a bit...

I'm Meeting some friends at Oasis who will be camping in the area and was going to hang out with them for a night, but I did plan on going out to 7 Mile Camp if they had a change in plans.

This is my neck of the woods or I should say swamp. I live in Southwest Florida. My daughter is dropping me off at Oasis Visitor Center the day before I start. I'll hike north for three days and a...

I'm going on a 3 day Big Cypress National Preserve solo trip making my way up to I-75 in first week of February. A map is about useless out there for most people, you're better off carrying a...

Old School Fire Starters are not fragile and susceptible to leaking or braking and will last a lifetime. Once proficient with it, all you do is toss it in your bag and never have to worry about it...

There is nothing malicious about wanting to know what happened prior to the two knuckleheads going off like that or using the term provoked in that manner. Inquiring minds want to know! Some people...

Do you have something of substance to contribute regarding the definition of what is Modern Society?

Some food for thought.

Since your hike will be in November, I would ditch the kilt and keep the rain pants mainly for protection from the wind when stationary at the campsite at night.

There's...

HooKooDooKu did say "In Modern Society". Pre WWII is not considered modern society.

I disagree with people having to be provoked to reach this level of violence. We live in a time of hateful...

The company was not "partially at fault" for the customer's poor decision to us a sharp object to open a box containing an item vulnerable to sharp objects. It's common sense, but there is a reason...

I doubt you would have gave the package a second thought if you didn't cut into the stuff sac. Looks like you're tying to have the company pay for your negligence. You can be the box whisperer,...

I think most people know you will die from the lack of water before you die from the lack of food. I don't think explanation was "Ignorant or for ignorant people" as you say, it was just not thought...

I would like to know the reasoning by all the conspiracy theorists doubting or finding the “lack of water and food” explanation odd. This is more plausible than any theory stated so far and can...

There is no reason for this thread to be wrapped up anytime soon. The official ME report and LE findings have yet to be released and after that I'm sure there will be a long reflection of the...

Funny, I have yet to see a negative opinion. It's all about how you view world, some people we see negativity in everything.

Maybe you're the one who needs an attitude adjustment since you were so easily "urked" and by how "superior" you felt. Seems like you're about at that point of being a "Hiker Snob" yourself.

How far apart are the AT trail markings in that section of the AT?

Thanks, I couldn't make out what he was saying, I knew the remains were found on government property.

I thought he said the remains were found 3000' feet from the AT then later he started talking about 100 yards and could't understand what he was talking about.

Press Conference Notes:
- Person discovering the remains was doing an environmental survey for the Navy.
- Remains were found 3000 feet off the trail. (Someone correct me if I'm wrong)
-...

Even the most experienced navigators can get disoriented in the woods when not paying attention, it doesn't take much. To make matters worse, some people will decided to take what they think is a...

A lot of people are forgetting that this card is not limited to protecting just hikers, it covers most outdoor activities. I think it's a good way to raise revenue.

Store your water bottle upside down at night if there is a chance of temperatures dropping down to freezing.

Besides maybe a preference in taste, I don't understand the reasoning for buying the microwaveable mac & cheese and then repacking it in a zip lock bag for a backpacking trip. I don't think it is any...
