      @@offthecouch1999 I have a video [Haversack (German military bread bag)] of a bag I had & loved. Unfortunately I gave it to my girlfriend of 3 years & just recently we broke up. She absolutely loves the little bag & uses it a lot. I just got me & modified a Czech Military bread bag that I will make a short video on ASAP.

    I truly believe that in the woods is like being in someone's house. Treat it with respect! Leave no trace, pack out what ever you brought in,and exercise extreme caution and common sense when using fire! Prepare for an emergency situation such as accidents or getting stuck out over night and most important, LET SOMEONE KNOW WHERE YOU ARE GOING AND WHEN YOU WILL BE BACK AND DO NOT DEVIATE FROM THE PLAN!
    DON'T TRUST CELL PHONES! AND CARRY A COMPASS (know how to use it)

      Amen to that. I have lost a few friends to the Appalachian trail due to a lack of preparation.
      We hiked together on the whole trail before and their passing shows that even experienced people can be negligent.

    Good advice. We don't look for a garbage dump to camp, but somewhere clean and natural. Do the same for the next guy so he can enjoy it, too.

    I like to use haversack scouting, use a Finnish gas mask bag. Like to travel lite. Fix blade bushcraft knife, usually my Garberg, SAN, and silky saw, don’t take a hatchet. Wear a fold up dump pouch to use for gathering fat wood etc, monocular, GI canteen and cup, poncho, small space blanket.

    I'm really lovin processing fatwood with my dads bandsaw, got about a cheap 2qt stuffsack full of 6" x 1/2" (or close to it, I just eye'd the size) pieces with a couple pieces in each pack I have, enough to last a lifetime.
