    A normal overnighter will see me carrying my main pack wherever I go and camp when I'm done hunting for the day. This way I have all my gear on me at all times. If I set up a base camp I will just...

    Being warm will ensure you see the sun rise next morning. A fire may help, but to be honest, a half dozen army surplus store hexamine tabs is far, far better than any firestarter. My luck, it's...

    My 2 cents.. Firstly I believe that spending time in the hills when the weather is really shit house is invaluable. Personally I only ever did this on fly in trips that I had committed to where...

    Having kids has made me way more thoughtful. Has anyone had any experience with heating under something like a poncho with a tea light? I hear you all with a fire, but I keep thinking that if its...

    Good stuff, guys! During 40 years as a SAR practitioner, I always asked of people who had spent a night, or part of a night, out unexpectedly: "What did you wish you had with you?" The responses were...

    Something substantial to eat for breakfast. Having a meal will help with the business of getting the day back on line - and you out of wherever you are. I keep a Radix breakfast in my bag. *00...
