Another solution is to add salt and leave them to absorb as much as they can for 3-4 hours. Then, store in the fridge. Following this procedure, the shrimps become more touch, and it is difficult ...
I’ll let you do the mapping but you’ve got a couple of good options. The Arnold Arboretum is walking distance from Forest Hills Station (directions by different methods, including Forest Hills Sta...
By far the best way I've found to test your setup, is to get out there and test your setup. It should go without saying that this needs to be done in a metered manner; don't bite off more than you...
Middlesex Fells is a great location just north of the city. It's fairly T-accessible and is as close to TGO as you'll get in metro Boston. Trail Map and info

This query started with a local accident. Yeah. We get so many of these. I was moved by the James Kim story. For the want of a nail... Have a 406MHz ELT Every big player from the Royal Nav...
Going around is the best solution. You can wack your way through with a machete, but it is not easier. The vines are really long, you would need to cut a tunnel, where you cut both ends, it is a ...
The cub scouts and boy scouts are now accepting girls in their programs. As your daughter is 3 or around 4 since this was posted she would have to join cub scouting and you can be there with her as...
They are a hassle to use. On every trip I've been on, I've adjusted layers a dozen times a day. The last thing I want to do is to take apart my liner from my shell. It's much better to have se...
Some places I travel to have stray dogs in the city. Can a knife be used effectively if attacked by one or more of them? I've had creepy close encounters. Probably, but it's far from ideal. Th...
I had the same issue with Karhu touring boots, delamination of the rubber sole front in the middle of nowhere, fixed for the return trip with velcro straps. I repaired this boot with barge contact...
You haven't said what country you are talking about. Don't try this in Britain - you will end up in jail. In fact don't bring a knife to Britain. Selling, buying and carrying knives The maximum...
You don't need to be looking any further - there is no such adjustment screw. Reason being, there's nothing adjustable there. The purpose of this slider is to facilitate your ski boot moving sidewa...
Conditions that can lead to clear ice such as this are: Water with few impurities causing less scattering of light: This lake does not have any water flowing into it, therefore rain is the only s...
Assuming weather conditions were perfect, and the condition you were treating was mostly oedema, then a hot air balloon with a hyperbaric chamber may be possible. However, conditions are rarely ...
Outcome: In the end I followed the instructions and simply tapped the new pole tip on with a sharp strike of the pole onto hard flagstone pavement. With hindsight, I wonder if it would have been b...
Here are a few interesting data points from the cross-country skiing world which shows a heat gun (or boiling) and hot glue/a hot glue gun being used to replace the tip on a ski pole: https://youtu...
Given that your avalanche beacon has the potential to be your partner's lifeline (or your own), it makes sense to protect it. Rocks, branches, skis, poles, ice tools, there's a lot that could pote...
The best method in my opinion is one that must be learned, and involves moving your thumb across the blade, perpendicular to the blade not down it! It's very difficult to describe the feeling but i...
Generally I categorize sharpness into 3 levels: The tomato test - being able to slice through a tomato skin. Not use the pointy end to break the skin and then slice but directly slice the skin al...
If you're sharping the knife outdoors (where a tomato is not available), a good test is to wield it perpendicularly to a grass stalk and see if the knife cuts it off.
Cheap, disposable sponges. Unlike paper, they can be tested on while wet, which is a big advantage when sharpening with waterstones. Don't use the scrubby side (some people like using it as a debur...
Black locust is in some areas of the northeast now, but I don't know about the Adirondacks. It is listed as very durable for rot resistance, and is mentioned as being used for fence posts because ...
From what i can tell, and the little bit of research i did it appears to be a "Flat backed millipede" or part of the Polydesmida family, of which there are a huge variety and many are hard to tell ...
I doubt he only knew 4 knots. Looking at online photos, is difficult, but in this photo I think I can see a double fisherman's on the cord on the back of his harness, a figure eight on a bight o...
