    Freezer Bag Cooking - Post your recipes here to share!

    Whether it is freezer bag cooking or bivouacking or using a new mix of wet weather clothing, one thing to remember about anything you try for the first time when "roksliding" is to try it at home first. Definitely get into FDC, it is fun, saves money, and lightens your load. Pick the recipe...

    Freezer Bag Cooking - Post your recipes here to share!

    FBC is about rehydrating freeze dried or dehydrated meals in a freezer bag, not unfreezing meals. The main reason people do FBC is to save the water weight, which you don't do if you take a frozen meal with you. If you did take a frozen meal that did not require rehydrating then your best bet...

    Going floorless for the first time - should I bring a bug bivy?

    If you pitch a tarp over your hammock, whatever is walking through at night will bump into the tarp first and not you.

    What do you use for backcountry communications

    I am looking into getting something for backcountry communications, emergency and non-emergency. So, I was wondering what everyone uses and what you like about it. Things like personal locator beacons, satellite phones, SPOT, that sort of thing.

    I am doing some research on modern day poncho liners, like the woobie and doobie. Does anyone in or around Annapolis or Maryland have one that I could see and take some pictures of?

    Carry wifes/kids rifle?

    If you want to avoid any possible hassle, let them carry their won rifle. You have to convince the game warden that you are not hunting if you have a rifle/bow/weapon. Your wife or kid would probably prefer to carry their own rifle to be ready for a shot. So, carry ten pounds of their gear and...

    Can’t keep gore Tex boots from leaking!

    I have used a few styles of the Ganz products and did not have any problem with my feet sweating any more than they normally do. The best thing about these socks is that you can use them like any other pair of socks. Take them off at the end of the day and wipe any sweat off of your feet while...

    Can’t keep gore Tex boots from leaking!

    The waterproof socks I was talking about are not GoreTex socks. You will run into the same issue I fear that happens with the BT booty in BT boots. I was talking about socks like Sealskinz or those from Ganz, which I have used in the field. Here are some websites to check out, and no I do not...

    Question about layering for wind

    Wind will suck your heat off of your body and out of your layering system due to convective heat loss. So, you want to put something that blocks the wind, and moisture, over your insulating layers. My preference for an outer layer is something that does not insulate but does block the wind and...

    Proof of sex attachment

    Yes. I just talked to them about it and they said to keep the carcass tag with the piece that is meat, not antlers, and that has the actual proof of sex.
