did you know that the colorado river doesn't reach the ocean anymore, and hasn't consistently since the 60s
it all gets sucked up for irrigation and municipal water on arizona and mexico
there's just a dry delta in baja california where it once was
a similar fate has actually befallen a bunch of rivers in the southwest

/out/ings with a pipe

No.2856593 View ViewReplyLast 50OriginalReport
Last thread >>2844498

This is a thread for enjoying a pipe while doing outdoor activities. If you ask why this belongs on /out/, you've never spent
an evening by the campfire with a pipe silently enjoying the nature around you, and you're missing out.

>how to get started
Purchase a corn cob pipe (or a cheap briar pipe) and a pouch of Half and Half or Captain Black tobacco from a smoke shop
or online. You will need a lighter or match, and something to tamp it with--a large nail works well if you don't have a pipe tool.
Fill the pipe with tobacco, pack it down halfway, top it off, pack it down to 3/4, top it off again, pack gently and enjoy. Smoke
slower than you think you need to, the tobacco tastes best when it is burning cool. Tamp and re-light as needed. If you still
have trouble, try different methods on YouTube until you find one that works for you.
>smoking a pipe will give you cancer
Originally the Surgeon General found that pipe and cigar smokers, following a careful study of the statistics (at a time when
most adults smoked, so they had a good sample size), had insignificant death rate increases. Nowadays, tobacco is being
legislated against while hard drugs are being legalized. Put two and two together. Tobacco is just another good thing under attack by the government.

>muh weed
Not the time or place. Start your own thread.

All tobacco users welcome.

You are granted two wishes.

If you are a hunter or angler you now possess the power to bring back two species. Game or fish. You can only pick one category.
>you may pick two species
>one will not displace or harm an ecosystem
>it will be available to pursue by yourself and the public in its traditional range and sustain itself
>the other will be only for you in an environment which it lived
>you will have a one time pursuit of it with sufficient resources
>either species may be living or extinct

What are your choices?

What are your favorite biomes?

I'm gathering ideas for biomes and natural environments. I'd like to know if anyone knows of any natural environment or biome that they find pretty. It could be a description, a picture of nature that you like, anything helps.

Isn't Mont Blanc somewhat shitty?

>higher death rate than Denali
I'd like to climb a really big mountain but Mont Blanc is certainly not my dream, despite its beuty. Grossglockner is much less suicidal if you have some climbing experience.
