Before people start sourcing and pricing up emergency signalling items maybe best to be honest and ask yourself if you actually carry that first aid kit into the field when you do go out. Because if you are not carrying the FAK then I think there is even less chance you will be carrying the...

Not tried this yet but sure it will appeal to some of the garden shed brewers here.

Wage low - yes I think Its more going to appeal to someone whom wants to start/get their foot in the door of that sort of work.

Hope its ok to post here? If not Mods please delete. Opportunity for a writing position for an Outdoorsy/Prepper person with suitable experience and creative writing skills.

But as mats seems to mostly travel on the outside of a pack ( mine do at least ) I'm ok with that , even if just bungeed down. I'd be interested to know what make yours is Toddy if you have a moment of remembering.

Yes its a relatively recent design. And yes its thin. Have you used one?

My bad - one of these - Which IS good at being space saving and compact but ultimately its thin. So i wondered if there was something that took the best of both worlds ? Old school durability but maybe with a new waffle concertina type style ?

To be fair , you do have the legs for them... :)

I'm actually wondering if there is a more 'chonky' closed cell mat out there? Ive no problem with a larger thicker mat because once its down , its down for the duration and when you are up and moving its on the back of the bergen. So I'm wondering of there is anything out there that maybe a...

I do feel that there a bit of a potential Eloi and Morlocks-esque type framework regarding the university/non-university divide. I've met some bright graduates ( in my opinion ) I've met some not-so-bright graduates ( in my opinion ) I've also met some very bright people that have not been to...

This - absolute bargain. I was concerned that the paperback version was going to be lesser quality and smaller but its full A4 and FULL of colour prints. Excellent value - going to enjoy digesting it this weekend.

I think the question is more - does the method and process for qualifying for the certificate ACTUALLY provide adequate instruction and education.? There are many parallel situations from Plumbing , Aviation engineering , Tree surgery etc etc etc

I do agree with all that has been said in someways - But.. ( and I'm sure Gregg is more than qualified ( in experience ) to teach what he is doing from his resume ) ,, how close to the line the other way would one feel comfortable in accepting instruction from someone with a military background...

Nice one - Thanks Nigel.

Its around the main frontal drop down section and currently its hanging and creating an uncontrollable gape. I need to get it repaired as opposed to moderating my expectations and living with it. If I can't glue it I will resort to sewing it - not ideal but better than a kick in the mamm glands.

My Carinthia observer bivvi bag requires a repair. Its made fully of Gortex but two of the materials that I assume were glued or adhered to each other have come away from each other. Whats the best product to fix it with? As its on a curved arc of the front of the bag ( near the observer...

I have a few of the Scepter ones, they are top notch , but currently quite pricey even as surplus kit. Keep your eye out on FB marketplace or check Ebay - Some Mil surplus shops also seem to get access to them on occasion. They are very good however.

Reasonable question - and I will answer it - But I think its also important to acknowledge a timeline for myself as to when I first got introduced to tracking as that I feel is relevant - when you first are introduced to a new subject matter you tend to have your eyes widened the most I feel...
