wilderness living

Anyone know when they will start popping up? Should be any day now?

That has been a question I've been asking myself a bit, and after looking on the internet about it, I've found a few answers, but they either require lots of work, a hook, or don't seem really efficient. What's been your best method?

Well there was a posting in Litha Park about a few weeks ago that there was a Cougar sighting near a neighborhood just outside the park. I was wondering if anyone had any tips or stories on how they handled wild animals while camping out in the woods. From my experience, I dealt with a few...

Would anyone be able to tell me a great way to make a fire in the woods that has as little smoke as possible? I would like to squat in the woods without people finding me..

Hey guys, The name is Michael. When I was 16 I moved out of my house, and when I turned 18 I became homeless. I started couch surfing, squatting in abandon houses, living in shit houses, living in basements, renting rooms etc. I am currently living in my best friends room with her mom while she...

To attach to another thread I made about wilderness wandering or long term living, I've thought on planting seeds-if you were staying put a bit or had land or whatever- and seeing how they'd work out. Obviously you'd need a clear area and plenty of sunlight. Anyone have suggestions for plants to...

Any of you peeps buy fishing license in whichever state you happen to be in atm? Or you just say fuck em and cast anyway. Ive been wondering. What the 5-0 would say if a homeless dude was walking around with fishing gear but no fishing permit and out of state drivers license/I.D.

I thought this was already on StP somewhere but I couldn't find it so I'm posting it here. EXTREME LIVING: Turning Caveman in America http://www.messynessychic.com/2012/04/23/turning-caveman-in-america/ By MessyNessy 23RD APR, 2012 12 Sometimes we just want to get away from it all; make...

So I just stumbled on this video, and I thought it could be useful to you guys! Check it out! My flash player is too much of a dick to let me get the audio, and the subtitles are in french, so in case the audio is also in french: All you need to do is to scratch the top of the can against...

Okay so reading Neanderthals posts and having convo with him. I'd like to hear some extensive gear lists if someone was choosing to.head in to the mountains for awhile. Let's say rockies and your starting in spring. And your either with pack animals or just in your pack. Hunting, fishing, wild...

A lot of stuff on here is for the big picture, what kinda shelters, how to eat plants and all that good shit. Well, I wanna hear about yalls small, mcgyver type things that make life on the road just a wee bit more comfortable and easy. Like painting the tips of tent stakes bright orange to...

Hey folks, Back online after many months! (my old username was cavemansailor). I just returned from my 4th trip to the Gila Wilderness this year. It turned out to be everything I hoped for and more, but I need to find some folks to go back with for the long-haul. For those not familiar with...

It is completed, or set up at least. I'll see how it holds up, it's supposed to rain the next couple of days. I've also established a fire pit for cooking and found an old dishwasher off the tracks and I hollowed it out to become a stove. It is an ideal spot in relation to water sources (ponds...

I'm having a huge issue with dear ticks this season in NY. I've been plucking these little bastards off me. Anyone know a good surefire way to keep them away? Avoiding tall brush is not an option!

I don't have much of a choice on where on to stay, except the shelter house, but for personal reasons, i rather avoid staying there. I have a tent, a few sleeping bags and some warm clothing to wear for fall. I'm thinking of tenting out in the outskirts of my hometown. I'm just worried about...

Ive been wondering if anyone knew alternatives on the west coast to buying bottled water or filling water up at fountains and what not. Maybe like wells in national forests or other sort of off road spickets and refill locations.

Not my video. I've had pretty good luck with these for cold weather camping. There's a learning curve, and a bit of prep involved so don't wait last minute to rely on this.
