I'm a little bit surprised about these answers. There are devices out there doing exactly what you want. I hope it's okay to name actual product names here? Me and my wife are using something ca...
What sorts of considerations, gear, practices, should I/we/they acquire to help them get back into car camping? Others have covered the questions of comfort well, and I have nothing to add t...
For lone backcountry or wilderness where you can count on there are no others, 'usually'. Have a plan to respond to 'life altering' threat of injury or attack. Your gut will tell you a person is c...
Besides being the manliest thing you could ever wear outdoors: Durability Have you ever had a flannel shirt, or pair of pants? If you have, then odds are you still have them. They are extremely a...

Not really. The only long-distance communication method phones have is GSM/CDMA-based, and requires a tower (at which point, just call each other). Other signals they carry are usually Bluetooth a...

I wouldn't use climbing rope, anyone that's ever caught a climbing rope that's running out will tell you it's not pleasant. It burns! Very painful. A lunge line would be much better. It should eas...

Your final sentence is correct. The newspaper will wick water from internal fabric, but it will not pull water back through the Gore-Tex layer. It only allows water vapour to pass through. You act...
In cold weather, I'm the guy that always has way more layers on than everyone else. I don't let myself sweat though, I just suck at retaining body heat. Sweating is the primary reason for not over-...
