I wish I could say I was in a little cabin in the woods. Ha! I have been busy improving on some skills though. Will be sharing some pics soon.

It's so good to get back to my favorite destination on the web. I never was big on posting, but HUGE on reading and gaining great perspective from the collected knowledge on this site.
I've seen people 'stab' a ball of pine resin with a stick and heated up over a fire, and proceeded to use as a glue stick to fix an assortment of leaks. No container used at all but definitely...
Wish I had. I was just snapping pics while hiking. Resemble anything you might know? Or are more pics in order? I'm going out tomorrow so I'll try to find another, assuming any have survived the few...
Very nice stuff, GMB.
Ok, lets see if you mushies can help identify this one. Completely forgot to get a positive ID of the stump it's growing out of, but considering where I was (East Central ...
Such a nice thing you guys are doing. I pray for your speedy recovery, Hunter63!
Welcome aboard.
I agree with you there, Rick. I was speaking more of TEOTW/govt structure loss rather than isolated disasters. If you're somehow lucky enough to find yourself alive AND can acquire unspoiled,...
In TEOTWAWKI.... IMO it would seem that a good background in bushcraft would perhaps be the most beneficial skill. And of course, bushcraft includes quite a bit. Very debatable though, considering...
Absolutely love it.
No room or opportunity to keep chickens??? Or any other animals? There is literally no land you can do this on between your home and this 'wilderness' you live next to? Maybe the landlord is an arse....
Most weekend campers are definitely more connected to nature. Why would they be going out in the first place? BUT.......
That being said, definitely doesn't mean those campers know which tree to...
Good call guys. Way more likely that it's a privet. I'm retracting my previous statement!
I could be wrong, but it looks like a relative to the holly species. Those aren't berries but 'drupes' which contain the plant's seeds.
Do not eat these. They are toxic. Here's some info:

Some good advice Hunter63. Allow me to clarify, I'm not going to be hunting these migratory birds, period. Never intended to. The requested info was all in the name of research, and could perhaps...
Broke down and bought a new S&W Extreme Ops MT. Very good quality. Came with a tonto style folding knife. On clearance, 14 bucks.

Nevermind on those yuccas. A lot aren't that great for eating, you need positive ID from someone experienced to find the edible species.
Don't do anything until you've read this:...
What part of Miss are you in? Southeast, AL here.
OK - Here's a few that are likely to be around you depending on time of year, and exactly where you are in Mississippi:
Greenbrier tubers...
Great pics, Crash!
I guess my decision would depend on what kind of kit I'm prepping. In a BOB, I would definitely have one. GHB? Wouldn't... but that's just me.
I no longer include my particular MT in my outings...
MERRY CHRISTMAS everyone!!!!
It's Christmas time, so time to get mushy I guess. I won't pretend that I know you guys, but a one-sided kinship definitely develops when reading all the info you...
I'm a little bewildered when you say you only occasionally lose animals, but you don't consider yourself to be very good at snaring? Knowing an animal's behavior, trails, food & water sources,...
John & Geri McPherson: Primitive Fire & Cordage
The cordage portion of this video is second to none. Taught me the fundamentals of identifying plants to utilize for fibers, and using the fibers to...
Picked up a 15 liter dry stuff bag, 50ft nylon chord, couple rooster tails, a pack of lead worm weight sinkers and some more waterproof matches.
No response yet? Hopefully you didn't kill his dream. Maybe I'm impatient. I'm curious about this one as well.
