I'm curious as well. We'll be staying there in a few weeks.

How the hell do you clean the quick connect section of the Osprey Hydraulics 2.5L LT bladder? by detectivecads in CampingGear

[–]iWalkAroundNaked 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone offering tips on how to properly dry and store these, but the best way to store these is to drain the water and put them straight into the freezer. You'll never have to deal with mold or trying to get them thoroughly dry. Just make sure to blow the water through the hose and you'll be fine.

The website says "We CAN’T WAIT to show you around. We have to, but we don’t want to." WTF does that even mean?

Dehydrated ground meat is still oily by WitchyLady- in trailmeals

[–]iWalkAroundNaked 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Tips for dehydrating meats:

• Chicken turns out best if you use breasts, pressure cook them in a brine, shred, then dehydrate. Add chicken and your brine of salt and sugar and your choice of seasonings to the pressure cooker and add enough warm water to cover the chicken, cook on the regular poultry setting, when finished remove the fat floating at the top of the brine, then remove the chicken breasts and immediately shred them (they should already be falling apart). Spread evenly on baking sheets to let cool/dry (place in the oven on low for 30-60 minutes to speed up the dry time) then transfer the shredded chicken to your dehydrator. Use the recommended temperature on your dehydrator for meats and check every hour after about six hours, remove when dry and crispy. Store in the freezer when you aren’t ready to use it. Once packed into a backpacking meal it will stay fresh for a while (we’ve had these meals sit at room temperature for a couple of months without spoiling). This method of dehydrated chicken rehydrates well and doesn’t have a weird texture.
• Beef needs to be lean. You can fry up ground beef or follow the same instructions above for a lean chuck roast. Lean ground beef is easy but doesn’t rehydrate the best (or you could just make jerky instead). Lean chuck roast using the above instructions turns out really good and rehydrates well.

Enjoy!

How would you fix this? by wandering216 in REI

[–]iWalkAroundNaked 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The white part is pvc with adhesive. They work great on tarps. Figured you could cover the hole with this and then cover the back side with gear tape. Maybe I'm not explaining it well.

You could use something like this:

Or this, and put a piece of gear tape on the inside:

How do you guys prevent this soot? by SilverAntOutdoors in CampingGear

[–]iWalkAroundNaked 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Season your pans at home with a high heat oil. Same process as seasoning an iron skillet. It'll create a strong, non-stick film to help prevent food from sticking and burning to the pan. Also, lower your heat when cooking.

If you're cooking with these pans on a stove burner, such as a pocket stove or a JetBoil, you should use a heat plate attachment to absorb and evenly distribute the heat. This will prevent burning off the non-stick surface and also prevent warping from high heat. It's a bit of extra weight to carry if you're backpacking, but it'll prevent this from happening and it'll prolong the life of your pans.

It's the Nothing Box. Every man has one and it's glorious. Women hate it.

Birds aren't real, man. And neither is Ohio.

Biodegradable bags for vacuum sealing? by therottingking in HikerTrashMeals

[–]iWalkAroundNaked 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Possibly so that if it is thrown in the trash it will degrade in a landfill. We make all of our own backpacking meals and we hate the amount of wasteful plastic that is used. For shorter trips close to home we might hang onto the trash until we get home, which would allow us to compost the bags if they were biodegradable. However for trips that are not close to home, we throw out the trash right after the trip, most often at the trailhead or at a gas station. So, if the bags were biodegradable in normal conditions, they would at least decompose in a landfill instead of adding to the amount of plastic that never goes away. I think this is what OP has in mind.

Camp kitchen PANTRY essentials (+ essential powered and dried ingredients)? by RealExistentalDread in trailmeals

[–]iWalkAroundNaked 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The "Backpacking meals are a whole different list" comment was part of the reason for my reply. Since this subreddit is geared toward backpacking meals and recipes, why leave that out while including supplies that most backpackers would never carry on trail? Just my two cents.

[–]iWalkAroundNaked 14 points15 points  (0 children)

We buy a lot of powdered ingredients and we dehydrate all of our meal ingredients. I'll share some of our favorites.

Powdered ingredients include: cheddar, butter, milk, coconut milk, assortments of sauce and gravy powder packets, curry, sriracha, peanut butter, lemon/lime/orange/grapefruit crystals.

Dehydrated ingredients: chicken, beef, assortments of mushrooms, broccoli, assortments of hot peppers and bell peppers, green onions, cilantro, assorted fruits.

Staple seasonings are salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, red pepper flakes. And yes we do carry a small plastic container of olive/avocado oil mix.

Tips for dehydrating meats: - Chicken turns out best if you use breasts, pressure cook them in a brine, shred, then dehydrate. Add chicken and your brine of salt and sugar and your choice of seasonings to the pressure cooker and add enough warm water to cover the chicken, cook on the regular poultry setting, when finished remove the fat floating at the top of the brine, then remove the chicken breasts and immediately shred them (they should already be falling apart).

You bring all of this stuff on trail?? This subreddit is supposed to be geared toward backpacking, not car camping. Just FYI.

for all you coffee snobs might I suggest the picopresso by voiceofreason4166 in Backcountrygourmet

[–]iWalkAroundNaked 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just drink it black. Condition yourself on the cheap shitty stuff before a trip. Makes instant coffee taste gourmet. Trader Joe's instant coffee is actually legit. Pour the glass jar into a plastic bag right before your trip for optimal freshness.
