Great question I would think through in your specific case the following steps: store it (at home or at a public boat ramp if available) transport it (if it’s not already at the launch point)—-to...
Mould does not need light to grow, and the proposed green colour will prevent you seeing mould growth, and being darker inside, will encourage mould growth. What is important for mould growth is d...
Some things I learnt from books, occasionally an instructor and from others: Pack heavy things close to your body. So do not put heavy things in the outside pocket at the back of your main backpa...
The best way is to reduce (actually to remove) any kind of attractions they like: food and water. If they cannot find anything useful, than they will stop releasing scents that attracted other ants...
There are a number of articles on the web telling you how to kill ants that invade your campsite with common household products. See, for example, Tips And Tricks To Stop Ants From Invading Your C...
As someone who thru-hiked the AT, and has had many a blister, I can safely say that you really need do nothing for them other than to remove the dead skin once the blister pops, off load any pressu...
Flares appear to weigh up to around 200g each, and to be fairly bulky. As each one can only be used once, that's a lot to carry per fire - a similar amount of liquid fuel and tinder could be expect...
You are outnumbered. You will never be able to "completely eradicate" ants. Outsmart them instead. Build a moat. A trick for keeping ants off a table is to put each table leg in a small container...
It depends on your lure/bait, if you have. Fishing is also a lot about luck. Right fish, right lure/bait, you could get one.
Besides super glue, as some do not want to go that route, here is another option. You also mentioned that you cut it off. This can actually slow the healing process as it will dry out the skin und...
I have a small can of Bar-B-Q-Black, a Rustoleum product that we have used on scratches or dings on black metal objects, such as a wood-burning stove or a iron garden bench. This particular can say...
If you have a large enough car, depending on your environment it can be a better solution - for example, in a prius if you fold down the back seats there's easily enough space to sleep with a decen...
Visit your local medical durable goods store and purchase several ABD pads, which are super absorbent and can hold a considerable amount of urine and, being cotton, are biodegradable and can be bur...

If your kayak has a skeg, make sure it is down (in the water). This will help you to steer straighter by reducing the turning effect of paddling more on one side. As mentioned, you will have to a...
You're going to be sitting in a certain amount of puddle regardless. A spray skirt/deck on a sit in kayak will reduce the effect but even that has its limits. Only wearing a full dry suit or dry t...
To adress both ways to cross waves When going offshore: just dive under the wave, when it breaks (white foam on top), if not you'll be knock out When returning on the beach: bodysurf the wave(vid...
In answer to your title question (and for the purpose of future readers): Use a spray skirt for SIT IN kayaks. Further reading: https://www.rei.com/learn/expert-advice/spray-skirt. For your purp...
You're almost certainly going at this the wrong way. For something like this you want a Garmin inReach unit--the costs are a lot lower. They only give you text messaging, no voice communications....
I also have feet which are blister sensitive, but I'm not overweight. In principle, everything that 'dampens' your steps, avoids blisters, but cost energy. So it's a tradeoff. This includes for ex...
Ok. If you aren't going to wear it dirty, then risking its waterproofing doesn't matter. Things to try: First one sounds crazy: You have a stain. Stain the rest of the poncho to match. You ...
The tandems I have seen have rudders, not skegs, because people find them hard to turn without one. Depending on the type of rudder, it can be easy to set it so it is turned when your feet are in ...
Thunderstorms due to diurnal variations from the previous day that still last as well as incoming cold fronts could be the cause. The former wouldn't be a big threat, as they would abate, the latte...
If you goal is muscle exercise, a stand up paddle board may not be the best choice. I stand up and paddle all the time in my 17 foot coleman canoe. I use the same 5 foot paddle sitting or standi...
Your explanations could be correct. But from having paddled a flat bottom inflatable kayak I noticed that the "swirl" from the paddle would go under the hull and cause a turn. The solution is oppos...
