Well, needhelp, this is an interesting questionnaire. I'm not certain I understand all of the questions, since I detect a slight language barrier. However, I believe, after perusal of the entirety of your plea, that I have gleaned its' meaning.

Here are my answers.

1.) I take hundreds of items, some very small like a p-38 can opener, and some quite sizeable like a tent.

2.) In camp I cook, I eat, and I wash dishes. I also sleep there. Aside from sitting by a fire in the evenings, I don't spend that much time in camp because it is a BASECAMP from which I foray into the wilderness.

3.)More than 3

4a.)YES

4b.) camouflage is the only necessary design since I am a hunter and it is only necessary on me. The other "artefacts" in my camp can be any color but I prefer earth tones; no bright colors on anything but fishing lures.

5.) LED lights are most useful because they are more efficient than incandescent. I also carry a cell phone for emergency use.

6.) I like wood gunstocks but I'll use plastics for anything if they perform well.

7.) As previously stated, I don't use bright colors. Even a color blind animal can discern bright colors due to their inherent light reflective qualities. I prefer earth tones, i.e., those that occur in nature.

I hope this helps you.

Need help, to save us all time, just mark Dino's answers twice. Close enough for me.

I like finding artifacts with designs on them. This is one I found on a recent trip and it is a good example. It is probably Pueblo III about 800 years old.



Plain ones with no design like this example from the late Basketmaker II period are less striking but one can still see the blackening from the fire when this was used for cooking. This one is at least 15 centuries old.



Actually I like them out of stone like this Basketmaker II metate and mano.



or this stone atlatl point.



or this shell bead,



So to recap and make sure we are on the same page here, I like designs on the artifacts that we come across in the desert and I like them made of stone but shell will do it too. Colors are nice but a striking black on white is fine as well.

What is an "artifact"?

Lamebeaver, an artifact is any item made by human hands. It does not have to be hundreds or thousands of years old. In this reference, I believe it means the man made objects a camper takes with them for use at a campsite or on the trail, like your lantern.

While waiting for the survey to be done i need to interview 4 people. You just has to answer this question regarding to camp. And also if you have picture of environment where you are camping please post that too.
1)Do you have any storage problem while camping? If yes what is the problem and if no why do you not have this problem?
2)Do you go fishing or any activity which need chair?
3)Do you bring any small accessories to camping? (Example earrings, necklaces or watch)

I alway bring my Lazee Boy reclinder with me when I fish. It's so relaxing.

Never go anywhere without my set of Ginsu knives and spiral slicer either.

Don't have a storage problem.....unless I catch lots of fish.

1. Only storage problem is getting my food high enough in a tree so the bears can't get it.
2. Sometimes during hunting season there are so many hunters out, I have to bring my own rock to sit on.
3. I take my earings and nose rings off before I go camping. They interfer with slapping mosquitos.
3. My dog tells me when it is time to get up so I don't need a watch.
