Took a little hike up a little local top the other day with my mom's dog. Was kept company for a little while on the final leg by a Golden Eagle that circled us for a while, but I'm shit at taking pics so I didn't get even a half way decent one. Was sort of the only local top I'd never been on, so it was about time.

Been a while since we've had an EDC thread. What are some things you always carry with you? Got any new gear recently? Knife? Flashlight? Tactical spork? I've been wanting to put together a little edc first aid kit, not like my actual hiking first aid kit, just smaller things I might need on the day to day. But I havnt really settled on a pouch yet, or, if I should get a small plastic tupperware container because it's waterproof and I hear things like bandaids can get roughed up pretty easily in a pouch

IMHO Aragorn would be way better off with a crossbow than a short bow. Short selfbow is practically useless in an individual combat, and crossbow is both more accurate and more powerful for hunting but can be just as compact if well designed. Name other instances where wrong choice of /out/ equipment was promoted shamelessly in media.

>>2837876 They make sense for people running ultras and shit, but they got marketed to casual hikers that really don't benefit from them
The 2x1L smart water bottle + sawyer squeeze is peak hydration provided you can reach them without taking your pack off. If you can't, it's a shit pack and you should get one that isn't shit rather than dealing with bladders.

>>2839824 Next piece of gear you should buy is a down sleeping bag/quilt
Especially on a bike where you can't carry a 70L bubba pack, it's a gamechanger. I regret not buying one sooner

>>2840026 Peak would be accessible pockets with a larger pocket on a shoulder strap that can hold a .5L bottle. If a pack doesn’t have pockets that can be accessed from the front then I wouldn’t even consider it. It’s a total deal breaker for me.

>>2840027 I really want one, they're just fucking expensive. A quilt would be ideal for most of the camping I'm gonna do and I've seen how tiny they pack but the cheapest decent ones are pushing $400 and I need to stop pouring money into motocamping gear and put some into the bike itself for a while.

Alternative cooking methods Look folks, it's 2025, fire is out the window. Your risk of starting a forest fire is too high, and smoke gives away your position to anybody. Obviously, fire is fucking dumb. The comanche would cold camp without fire to evade the Texas Rangers. But luckily, there are some really cool alternatives to using fire for cooking. >cold soak Dehydrated refried beans and othee foods can simply be left in water >solar grill These are really fucking cool and work great for cooking>non-cook solutions Muh protein powder, fiber powder and multivitamin gauntlent Im quite fond of the cold soak, I rarely even use heat to cook at home. The solar shit is really cool.

I'm in my country's version of the National Guard. We get MREs everytime we're out on exercises, but they also get us hot meals. So I got a fuckton of spare FRHs, and just bring whatever MREs I got left, or buy some commercial meals.

>>2837544 >Your risk of starting a forest fire is too high >and smoke gives away your position to anybody. I've cooked entire family meals on open wood fires. If you know what you're doing, and have dry wood and a solid base (fire pan, flat stones, doesn't matter), there's no smoke, and no risk of the fire spreading, either.
On the other hand, if a retard like you who can't even handle fire tried to use a solar cooker, I'd suggest bringing a welding mask. You might just end up blind, otherwise.

Pic related is my local woods, it's creepy in winter but actually scarier in summer. This is the dark spot in woods where the coyotes live and hunt, so often this spot is littered with the bones of rodents and squirrels and even fox skulls and such. In winter it's still uneasy but at least there's no undergrowth so you have visibility of what's around you

So I've thought of looking over historical photos of frontier folks, like gold prospectors and such, and try to build a modern equivalent to their loadouts. How viable would something like this be for a backpack only setup?

Decided recently that I wanted to move away from a lot of the plastic-heavy items, and instead opt for a more traditional setup tho still being light. So I guess minimalism will have to do. This is the current plan:>old cotton canvas pack from the 50's >wool poncho/blanket >waxed cotton poncho/tarp >(granfors bruks large forest axe) >knife >msr alpine stowaway pot >fire starting kit >some form of water carry(1-2L titanium canteen?) >toothbrush >extra pair of wool socks >thick wool sweather Thats just the basic starting idea, I'm not entirely sure about the axe, as its obviously "heavy", but also very useful and versatile. Maybe a smaller version would be more ideal as I likely wont fell large trees. I'm also wondering if I should consider another form of ground insulation, like reindeer hide/sheepskin. Finally Im also wondering if I should consider some equipment for keeping the fire off the ground as much as possible to prevent damaging the ground and creating burn spots everywhere I go.
