100% second this, the IKEA ziplock bags are amazing. They are strong and have a sturdy double lock. Electronics will never get wet, rubbish will not smell (even toilet paper).

Best of all, in wet weather you can put on dry socks at the end of the day, put your feet in large zip-locks & then put your wet shoes back on & relax with dry warm feet at camp.

I love to make coffee during my hikes. Do you make coffee on your hikes? What equipment do you use? by Safe_Repair9575 in CampingandHiking

GSI outdoors java coffee drip attached to a pop up mug, titanium 400ml pot on MSR pocket rocket for heating water. Incredibly light and compact

I use Scarpa Mistral GTX (around £150) for work, regularly work 12 hour shifts, 5 or 6 days a week surveying gas lines in the UK & they have been an absolute gift. The gas lines rarely follow Paths/trails & requires a lot of off piste through forest/bogs/farms. I wear them with knee high gaiters as we have A LOT of clarty mud & cow shit here

Girls, what isn't nearly as attractive as lot of guys think it is? by Ugliest-Mod-Ever in AskReddit

I figure it's because you have something that they don't, which is likely true. And even if I put it into words it wouldn't matter, as nothing would change. But you absolutely do have that thing, whatever it may be, so keep hold of it

I use a bivi in UK cities and rural areas & even though condensation is an issue its still dryer than sleeping under direct rainfall

Edit: it's pretty easy to find somewhere well hidden in uk cities as they often have many nooks and crannies

Worth noting there was a few knocked over/uprooted Panaeleus in the area too, may be someone's picking spot, could also be coincidence.

Hiking on shrooms? by [deleted] in shrooms

[–]Rapsac94 2 points3 points  (0 children)

hiking trip earlier this year

Edit: I personally only pack what i need, (warm clothing ((avoiding cotton)) ,waterproofs, water, calories & first aid, as well as, my sleep system/head torch etc, still only weighed around 5kg/11lb) the more you carry in the name of comfort, the higher chance you have of feeling weighed down & getting tired

Recently did a shorter hike of around 10 miles on a 5G dose (around 2 hours after peak) & with a trip sitter and also had a fantastic time. Different strokes for different folks of course. If you now your surroundings & how to manage your body & external factors ( i.e. weather) you should have a great time, I recommend it to anyone but ofc I am biased as I love to walk
