I’m glad you’ve found it helpful! Best of luck on your install.

I’ve looked and looked and it would appear I either didn’t record that part or I’ve deleted it. If it would ever stop raining perhaps I’ll redo this to include the other part(s).

It sure was!

Interesting observation. Deer do have some vocalizations they will make, including blowing air through their nostrils! As a sort of alarm signal. This is more commonly “heard” as a snort or cough/wheeze but I could see how it might be interpreted as a hiss! Bottom line is you were out getting some dirt time!!

To what point in the video are referring? Do you have a time stamp?

I definitely did not invite that tick on the mushroom hunt! I’ve since found another on me as well.

I think he was hiding from us so we just let him “bee” 🐝 - saw some bumble bees out in the same spot as well. It was quite an active couple square feet of woods!!!

Hi, thanks for the good input! Sounds like you’ve got a story behind your experience, would love to hear it some time! What I’ve landed on for this set up is a dedicated blow out kit with a TQ and an Izzy bandage and a chest seal. The TQ is on the outside, the other items are inside the main body of the blow out kit. “Regular” first aid is in a separate pouch.

Good input! Definitely don’t want to overload it, in this instance it’s just meant to be some basics that you’d want on your person if everything were to get whooshed off in the wind.

Hello! Hope all is well with you, and good luck on this journey we're all taking to learn something new and get better!

It pays well enough but I wouldn’t say no to a raise 😝😝. There is some history to the rules about weapons at my workplace due to previous incidents. Is what it is. 🤷‍♂️

Thanks! Yeah that Osprey is nice. I’ve had it for a long time, IIRC it was a free birthday gift from a place in Wichita KS called Backwoods (that has since gone out of business probably due to giving out bags like this to people every year on their b-day). I have a couple of MREs, with heaters, in a separate container (Home Depot Homer bucket) in the back of my car. I’ve also got a little twig stove and a stainless camp cup to boil water as needed. Since my walk from work to home would be only 10-12 miles (as the crow flies vs staying on roads) having lots of food and the ability to prepare it isn’t too high priority. To that end I also have, in the Homer bucket, some Cliff bars that I can just munch on as I walk as opposed to actually setting up a cook situation. Keep in mind this is strictly a “getting home from work” for ME with my relatively short walk home from there. If I had a longer drive that’d be a different situation entirely. My worst stuck away from home at work I was 4200 miles away from home but that’s another story altogether 🙃🙃

The coffee was pretty good! Coffee always seems to taste better cooked over a fire and drank (drunk?) outside. Once that little stove gets going it does a great job.

Hi Beck! I would not call this a rocket stove. Just a basic "twig burner stove" or "stick burner stove". A rocket stove is going to be a different animal. Typically j-shaped with an induction system that draws in a large amount of air, whereas these twig or stick burners.... don't ;-)

The twig stove was in Creek Stewart's December Apocabox. I don't know who the actual manufacturer of it is; but if you search for twig stoves online you'll find lots of identical looking ones with different branding so if I had to guess there is one manufacturer of all these and they will just engrave your logo on to it for you.

Thank you, and you’re welcome! The coffee turned out pretty good!
