Agean90 posted:I found out that Germans at bizarrely obsessed with the American West and research every little thing about it and wind up with dangerously/hilariously incorrect info. If they had a real taser with probes, and not a basic shock device, it would probably work. The more muscular the target, the more effective the lockup. I've thought about using mine to haze bears before, but the margin for error is pretty thin if you gently caress it up and I'm usually working solo. Our taser instructor at refresher training this year said he's seen video from a hazing project that used them to great effect. Apparently it's so disorienting and bizarre to them they flee once the NMI ends, instead of getting up and owning the person who tased them. The Germans are legit terrific visitors, at least in Alaska parks. Every time I see a Jack Wolfskin jacket I perk up a little bit. It's really endearing the way they say bears like beers, even though it's pronounced the same in both languages.

About six days ago a brown bear took a poo poo off the edge of a cliff on the coast of Lake Clark National Park and it almost landed on me. Welp that's my national park story of the day, please continue enjoying your public lands.

got any sevens posted:is there a thread around for hiking advice? like what to pack, how much water to bring, etc? One trick is to boil water and fill your nalgene with it, bring it into the sleeping bag with you. Adds a little active heating to the system. If you are boiling water to purify it you can do this without expending any extra fuel if you time it right. You can also try a sleeping bag liner. I don't really like them because they make me feel a little claustrophobic, but they add around 10F as a general rule.
