A great way to extend your living space in a camp is by using a tarp and tarp poles. I usually extend using a single tarp pole and some guy lines. If I need a larger space, I will end up using two poles. This is good to setup outdoor seating areas, tables for comms, eating area, etc.
This is a question I get quite often. Depending on the price of gold, people always ask me if they should buy gold. Gold is a commodity, and it is quite interesting. It is liquid (to some degree) like cash, it holds its value, but it doesn’t earn money (like cash). It can be stored privately or stored virtually though the latter would be annoying if the SHTF.
EMP (Electromagnetic Pulse) can happen from many sources (both natural and man-made), which is a significant burst of electromagnetic radiation which can disrupt or damage electronic equipment.
What is the arctic polar vortex? It is a band of strong westerly winds that form in the stratosphere about 10 to 30 miles above the North Pole every year.

I recently ordered the Baofeng UV-17 Pro GPS without any expectations. It cost me under $50 with international shipping. It is a multi-band radio but supposed to work on 2m and 70cm (as well as 1.25m) bands. It has air band and GPS. My quick summary is that this is the best Baofeng I ever purchased.
Indoor rock climbing can be a lot of fun. You can climb boulders, top rope, and lead in indoor gyms. What are the benefits?
As a survivalist, if you don’t have endurance or the ability to run, your chances of survival are reduced significantly. Running seems to be an activity that most people avoid. As a matter of fact, less than a tenth of the global population run, and the U.S. happens to have the most runners at about 15% of which more than half are women. Some countries have less than 1% of the population that run.
9mm Luger (9x19mm Parabellum). Most times I have encountered a handgun, it is a 9mm pistol. This caliber is very popular among all the gun manufacturers. I can hear some of the gun aficionados saying that there are better calibers out there, but go to any gun range, most guns on the stations are 9mm pistols.
If possible, yes. If I am camping and procuring questionable water for drinking, the first thing I do is boil the water to a rolling boil for at least 2 minutes. Let the water cool, then begin taking a sip with a personal water filter
