Are there any plants that are lawn-like, but with deeper roots? Wooly thyme is my go-to, but its root depth isn't really much different from lawn grasses. It doesn't need to be mowed, and it's more drought tolerant than grass. It's not as sturdy as grass in terms of foot traffic, but it works fine for light use.

Rectal Death Adept posted:One of the better water purifying solutions is "Polar Pure." It's just a jar of iodine crystals you mix with water but is extremely cheap per-gallon and one jar does like 2,000 liters. Backpackers usually carry it but it's going to be vastly superior to any kind of bulk tablet solution since you'd need like 30lbs of tablets to equal what one small bottle can do.

Pryor on Fire posted:jesus christ people you don't want to drink iodine, it's godawful for you. if you absolutely have to then get the strongest sugar mixer you can like kool aid because that's the only way you will be able to stomach it for more than one day Yeah. I looked at a bunch of options and ended up with an MSR Guardian because I wanted a water purifying solution for hiking anyway, and it'll do double duty in emergencies. It's pricey and bulky compared to other options, but I figure being fast, simple, effective against a broader set of contaminants than other methods, low maintenance, and able to do 10000L between filter changes are great characteristics whether I'm out in the woods or fleeing climate apocalypse. Just gotta make sure the cartridge doesn't dry completely between uses and you're golden. Natch for sprucing up an old XGK instead of getting a lighter/more convenient type of stove. I could save some ounces or not have to deal with liquid fuel, but having the option to burn gas and diesel and other random stuff seems like it could have some advantages in a few of the potential futures ahead. super nailgun has issued a correction as of 00:45 on Nov 18, 2021 |

In a pinch solar stills are really easy to make! You can use a soda bottle (top cut off), a smaller cup or bottle (top cut off) inside it, and saran wrap over it, place a small rock on the saran wrap to create a funnel and collect your nice distilled water.

Rime posted:
Wouldn't be shocked if there were pipeline breaches somewhere, but I don't think this is one for the original Trans Mountain line. The pipeline's the red line iI sketched into the picture. It's not between the two legs of the highway or even beside the highway. It's on the other side of the river past a road and some other stuff. You'd have to have lost an entire hillside on that side for it to end up in a river, and it'd be inside of a slide. You can see that side of the river in one of the videos and it' doesn't look like there's a problem over there. There are other pipes in that area, and I also have no idea where the new unoperational pipeline is in that area, but I'm pretty confident that isn't the original trans mountain pipeline sitting in the river.
