    Hi, Looking for a winter and fire camping ploycotton or similar tarp supplier like Tatonka or DD. Looks like Tatonka don't have a UK dealer. Have used Tentipi tarps at work on expeds and they were excellent. Any ideas ? https://bushcraftuk.com/community/threads/tentipi.140326/post-1758771

    Yes any food that is 'wet' can be dehydrated. I am looking for recipes so a bit of food with spices etc and time and heat. So far, cucumbers and banana chips, both tasted amazing eating on the morning commute !
