Yeah but the metal parts of a lighter can get hot enough to cauterize blood vessels so you don't bleed to death.

Six of one, half dozen of the other I suppose.

Get a room, you two.

fuck it. you try to make a positive contribution and you start getting trolled.

xoxoxoBruce · 01-11-2018, 10:00 AM

If you don't know the difference between being trolled and good natured kidding, you're in for a bad time.

I didn't get that impression. More like shooting the shit between two generations of GIs.

Shhh, I'm trolling sarge

Ok, so I am now in possession of the following:
- Stove
- Fuel source for stove
- Silverware (2 sets)
- Tent
- Sleeping pad
- Pot for stove
- Hydro flask food jar
- Reusable 24-48 hour ice packs

Since I am going to be hitting all of NC's 40 national parks in the next 365 days, I will have the opportunity to do car camping and also hike in camping. I am currently experimenting with foods. I have A LOT more experimenting to do, though.

- Bear creek soups rehydrate well with boiling water. I just have to be patient. I should be able to combine them with canned meat and have a filling meal. I am thinking of getting some freeze dried meat, though, since that will be lighter.
- I still hate oatmeal

Sound like you're having fun with this.

Do you like playing with the stove? Is it working well for you?

I am having fun!

I haven't actually played with the stove just yet. I just got the fuel and the pot. I had hoped to use a pot I had, but the handle makes it tip over. I am going to try it soon, though. I have put it together, though. I think I'm a little nervous about lighting it.

I still have a list of things to get, but I am going to calm it down for now....maybe

xoxoxoBruce · 01-16-2018, 02:17 PM

No you're not, you're having fun so keep it going. Calming down is after it gets to be old hat.

Griff · 01-17-2018, 06:18 AM

Try the oatmeal!

Have you considered this?

Very versatile, high protein, lean, lightweight, and quite tasty. Pop it into a sandwich baggie for camping and it will stay good for as long as you need it to. Fair warning, though, it is quite salty - rinse in water to wash away some of the extra salt before using.
