Weather looks good for Saturday evening. Think I’m going to hit the camping trail, try out my new chinook Thermopalm 50 degree sleeping bag, It compresses down to something just larger than a football, and a new bivy tent I picked up not too long ago at Sportsman’s…
Boiling Water in a Plastic Bottle.
Okay, I just saw something on the Discovery show Man, Woman, Wild I thought was pretty cool… I am sure this is not good for the long term, but for a short term survival situation, pretty cool. I am a fan of Myke Hawke. I have his book “Hawke’s Green Beret Survival…
