Is off-grid living a wealthy person's hobby? I can't live in an off-grid cabin full time because the code doesn't allow that, and I also would need a primary residential address. The only way to make it work off-grid is if you already have a real home.
Could you survive in the Australian outback with only your knife, a cast iron frypan, a soup pot, your hard-driving 4x4, 150liters of fuel, 70 liters of water, a shovel, a winch, a bedroll, and a saw??
I am looking at a 10 day trip. Post your staples, your ideas and your critique.
I think my breakfast is solid. I call it an oat bomb. >100g rolled oats, 20g whole milk powder, 20g desiccated coconut, 20g brown sugar, 10g chia seeds That's almost 750cal for breakfast. Prepared before the trip and ready to go as individually stored 170g dry mix in a zip bag.
Lunch looks like this >2x 6inch flatbread, 100g dry aged salami, 60g hard cheddar cheese, 20g crushed pumpkin seed, 10g chia seeds That's a 1000cal lunch, 6 inch bread because it fits in the frypan better meaning I can make a quesadilla by sealing both together with cheese, or I can make two smaller wraps. The crushed pumpkin and chia seeds end up in the melted cheese. Proper dry aged salami so that it lasts the trip and the cheese should be dry aged too, 'sharp' or 'vintage', cut in half and vacuum sealed. I am going with pumpkin seeds as they beat most nuts pound for pound and crushing them doesnt turn them into a butter type thing.
Dinner; I am unsure what to do here. It wont be a heavy dinner it can be smaller than lunch. I am still pondering this one. Whatever I decide on will likely be a mix of the things I am already carrying. Possibly a mini pizza using the 6 inch flatbread.

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
My girlfriend is from Michigan and she grew up fishing. She doesn't have her gear anymore, so I wanted to buy her something for her birthday coming up. I'm a hunter and have no fucking clue what to look at for poles; is there a solid generic thing you guys can recommend for a 120 lb girl?
