As reported here. Unfortunately I can report it much better than this. My family and I were at Spring Lake on July 7th. Even though the article claims the outbreak was July 4th, and was in the water, it's not accurate. My son was in the hospital for three days extremely ill. We brought...

The Hollow (Thermoelectric) Flashlight - Google Science Fair - YouTube Get that efficiency up and this just might be a reliable low lower lamp with very little to fail. I could see making a headlamp version, too, with more surface area to harvest heat. Really nice job, kid!

After this discussion I picked up a Big Agnes Flying Diamond 6. Long story short it's a 6 person 4 season tent. We ran into some serious storms last year so it became necessary to upgrade to a tent that could handle them. My son and I did the practice run set up yesterday. Initial...

You guys might appreciate what I made for the family over the weekend. It came out really good, very rich broth, tender meat. Store bought whole rabbit. Guts were gone but organs still attached. Simmering in a red wine / beef broth. On the right is the remains boiling for stock...

I have never had a truck with a cap/shell. My family of four car camping setup the last few years has been everything under a tonneau that is flat on the bed. That has worked really well for us and forced us to make good gear decisions in terms of both how we pack and more importantly what to...

Grizzly 0° Ripstop Sleeping Bag Can't say I have used this one but reviews are good. Excellent price on a 0 degree bag. Today only by woot.com's purpose.

We're about to find out if the entry level Sea Eagle stuff is as good as they say. I just ordered three Sea Eagle 330s. One for me and one for each of my sons (10 and 13).

I like the species challenge idea but I'm going to go a little differently with it. I am going to track all of the species I catch this year. If I see an opportunity to catch something not on the list I'll try and grab it. I have a wife and kids so fishing time is hard to come by. Maybe this...

"Outdoor Base Camp, Search Forums, Advertisement, Album Pictures" Until the other day they weren't there. Can I remove them somehow? They are taking up a third of the screen that I would rather use the way it was.

One of my goals for the next couple of years is to hit the state highpoints for New England. I don't have tons of experience with mountain climbing, though, just general woodsmanship. First peak up is Mt Greylock in MA. ~3500ft, good for starters. On the AT. My first question, I...

Anyone here use one? I have a few peaks in New England I'd like to hit but don't really feel like doing it after several hours of driving. This seems like an ideal solution to getting a little rest and driving in the night before.

Hey folks. Just found this forum via a Facebook link. Long time camper/hiker here. These days the hikes tend to be dayhikes and the camping is with two kids and sometimes the wife. Glad to be part of the forum! Hopefully I can meet some folks in MA/RI and learn some new things.

Last year we ran into several instances of our food in the coolers eventually getting all wet because the containers weren't sealed well enough. Do folks have a truly water tight set of containers they prefer? Think family of four on a long weekend, two coolers, one for meat one for everything...
