Rime posted:The series really lead me to question whether modern agricultural diets have had long enough to alter humans such that switching back to hunter-gatherer mode is simply no longer possible for our metabolisms, at least in the relative my short timespans portrayed in series's such as Alone. I don't think we're altered yet, but holy poo poo are we taught to be soft from the beginning.

Not bushcraft, but close to prepping: I wrote an html file which uses Openlayers together with about 20 GB (growing) of tiles downloaded by a Python script for totally offline map browsing. I got NAIP and USFS of the PNW so far, basically everything reachable by two tanks of Diesel. Even with an internet connection I just use this now, because it's extremely fast and directions just annoy me anyway. Good stuff!

Yeah, there are many apps like that, but I A) don't use a smartphone, really B) plan to eventually horde at least 100GB of imagery. Caltopo is awesome! I love the new MapBuilder layer.
