I've been meaning to put a brake on it ever since I started with it but have never got around to it. It is dangerous when going down steep hills so I really should.
Not too bad going up hills once...
This is my cart. I have used it for thousands of km. I designed it and had it made by a local metal worker. The hip band is an old army belt with a neoprene sleeve and there is a spare wheel on the...
I've had my SPOT for a few years now and would never go into the bush without it now. I love it. It not only works as a EPIRB but it gives myself and my family peace of mind that I can get help if I...
Not really agressive, they just bite a lot and barge through tents. Unpredictable? well, only because they are so stupid, one of the least intelligent animals. Dangerous? only if you hit them in your...
Thought some of you might be interested in this idea for a backpack swag/shelter.
I am toying with the idea of buying one to see what it is like since I have a few dollars to spare. If it is...
The government here sends helicopters over the area regularly to check for illegal house/shed building.
I don't understand why they only want males. I have over 20 years of serious survival and training experience and can do anything a male can do - well almost, lol.

Too bad you're not in Australia
There are a lot of wild edibles here in Aus that taste good but most aren't worth the trouble unless you had no other food.
You have to remember that wild foods haven't had the centuries of...
They are used as street and park trees over here. I love picking bagfulls of the pods to eat.
If you are looking for something cheap but no-name you can't go past the camcorders on www.chinavasion.com I have a great one that only cost $100 and I have been using it for months. It came with...
Easy, especially as I live this every day. Plenty of native foods here and mild weather all year round. If I was over there with your winter conditions it would be a different story though.
Oh yeh, I forgot about the paralysis ticks
We have a nice selection in Aus:
Snakes
Skeeters
Scorpions
Snakes
People
Sharks
Snakes
Bees
Ants
It will not always work if you can see the sky. They won't work in parts of southern Africa for example, and sometimes you need a clear sky view and not tree cover.
Anyway... I have a SPOT...
I never realised that earthworms in USA or any other countries were so small that this one is thought of as amazing. We routinely get 12 inch earthworms around here, that is normal. In another part...
In Victoria, Australia we have to have a licence which allows a person to use two rods. No nets, bag limits on some fish and size limits on others.There are no licences required in most of the other...
In Australia we have had a ban on incandescents (except for specialised ones) for a couple of years. Flourescents may take a few more seconds to brighten but they are quite fine. There was no...
Hey, there are heaps, some that you would be familiar with like cattails, introduced weeds ... oops sorry - herbs, and morels, but mostly stuff that you don't have over there like muntries,...
Hi everyone,
I have been a bit of a lurker up until now but I suppose it is time to introduce myself.
I live in the bush in Australia and have been for many years, I just can't get the hang of...
C'mon guys, there are no good bush food books out there for areas outside the top end or desert. Most of the bush food stuff you read in books and on the web is almost useless if you live in other...
