Both are dangerous, and as James says both require drivers to be extra cautious and adjust their driving. However from my experience living in Alberta, Canada where we spend ~5 months of the year i...
The roads are not the danger, the drivers on the road are the danger! Think about your question inversely (antonym); "Which is safer, icy roads or icy roads with snow on top?" It is not the prese...
White tiger you see is not the white tiger subspecies. White tiger are albino Bengal tigers or Siberian tiger just like human have albinism in all races. So of course they are very rare in natural...
I think there are simply not that many uses for nails in emergency situations. Using nails as intended: If you want to build shelter or other wooden constructions you would need a lot of nails...
There are many different folding bikes out there, do an images search if you are not convinced yet. What you look for, besides availability and price, is size and fit, good fitting folding clasps ...
The problem is that the chemicals in the treated wood are corrosive to metal, especially when wet. Beyond, the boat, it might not be so good for your trailer either. The two most popular chemic...
Low cost, or flash. Or make your own, they are "easy" to make. When learning how to use one (there is a reason they are still sold) it doesn't have to be precise. You just need something to pract...

I found an image of the Tony Knowles Coastal Trail available at: http://www.mappery.com/maps/Tony-Knowles-Coastal-Trail-Alaska-Map.jpg It is exactly the same as the "printable map" that you linke...

From your description of the area and given that it's springtime, it seems entirely possible the geese are nesting in the brush on either side of the path. In that case I would avoid attempting to...
There are two options. First you can sharpen it with a single bevel (per side), this requires sharpening with the wide bevel flat to the stone. Alternatively you can sharpen with a small secon...

I'd like to suggest a different approach than the majority which seem to suggest that dogs shouldn't ever get to go hiking without being leashed. To me, you need two components, and you'll be suc...
Keeping your eyes on the wolf in a way that he could observe might also have been helpful. Because he was very thin (poor thing) he might also have been very weak. He might have been waiting for a ...
