Some things have sat on my shelf for a while and I'd like to think they'd rather be outside doing something adventurous! So here's part 1 of the house cleaning, I'll see if I can part with some more...
I would avoid a clip point for the work I'd expect this knife to perform. Thanks though.
EDC hybrid. Moras and SRKs abound, need something in my pocket but also on the trail
Lose my Griptillian in the bush. Don't ask, I don't know how it lifted off my belt either. Loved that knife... lightweight, axis grip, easy to take an edge... But I've been looking at the Buck Pro...
USMC M.S.S. (Modular Sleeping System)
Authentic USMC, Natick tags. Includes Goretex Bivvy, Patrol bag (green), Intermediate bag (black), and compression stuff sack. Used lightly for a few years...
Been busy. A good busy. Busy outdoors, at work, etc., and got away from armchair blogging. Just finished a 110km thru-hiking in 24 hours (2.5 days). Anyways, Los Angeles is burning... not LA...
Not at all. Forums die when content gets stale. We've saturated content without providing anything new. Thus, we get Bragg's offbeat posts, arguments (which, judging by the collection of thread...
I think the forum is not the problem but the site in total. The forum may be active but the .net foundation has not changed since I joined two years ago. Why does backpackinglight.com,...
I'm trying to get a cheap army surplus camelbak with shoulder straps and molle attachments so I don't need a daypack to huff just my bladder. There's an excellent video somewhere on their site...
I joined a few backpacking groups on Meetup.com (not an advertisement, no worries). There's an overnighter for SoCal scheduled March 21st if anyone's interested.

Found it on reddit. I immediately thought, "Sarge?!"
True. Perhaps the OP should rephrase the question such as to relate:
"Should we legalize pot [to tax and gain funds for our struggling economy as to avoid a SHTF crisis]?"
And then follow that...
Yea I don't get that total darkness stuff. Total darkness is the absence of light... meaning by "running through the forest" would mean playing a real-life game of Pinball with the trees and...
Would rather just throw some mint leaves in a glass of saltwater. Skip the whole cow part. Isn't Hindi based on the "sacred cow"? So cow urine is, like, what? Like the Hindi version of Christian...
:pirate Pirates! All of them!

Blair Holt bill is in congress and under the radar. Write your congressmen, or better yet, march on capital...
I was going to pick up a MOLLE FLC, canteen pouches, etc. for weekenders but then talked myself out of it. It's like 1300g for the empty vest and pouches; too much for my ounce-counting self. Then...
Isn't it because the iodine evaporates? So you're left with less potent antibacterial tablets.... maybe
Wow, I got a good laugh out of that whole "seeking seekers" thread. That could have been handled a little better.... hell, a lot better. Yes he seems to be a numpty, but a numpty with dreams of...
Wow, I thought it was older than that. Oh my god look at all the new emoticons!!!!:chair:
Wooo, work had me busy there, sorry I forgot about this post.
I'm in the hills of Beverly, literally. $2.5mil house. For a year, give or take. That's the life of a contract worker :). Anyway,...
I think I speak for everyone here when I say that if you try it, we'd be very interested to hear your progress and results.
Instantly reminded me of the movie Defiance. Band of brothers only three-strong go into the woods to escape the Nazis, but eventually accumulate Jewish survivors and grow into a group of something...
Saw this article. For those interested in moving (or living) off the grid, now you can afford to make your own wind farm for less than $1000.

Ok, I'm in L.A. Yah for me. No more winters. I'm stuck in suits until my car arrives (hopefully within 5 days) but when it does please contact me for a hike or two. I'm interested to see the area....
I can't say I mind spiders but I lived in an old house. When I look up near the eaves of a door I just walked under, I don't want to see a crouching big brown the size of a baby's fist in his funnel...
