What natural (non-synthetic) fabrics are good for the winter? @Russell: You are being too heavy handed editing what you call "tone". I see you removed a significant part of the meaning from my sentence I know you asked about natural materials, but without explaining why your question is limited that seems silly. You may not like that, but I do think it is silly, and I have a right to say so and others have the right to hear my opinion that it is silly. You of course have the right to think I'm being silly, etc. I wouldn't try to sensor your opinion on that. |

How do I light a spirit (ethanol) stove when it's cold? Nice pictures. Makes me want to go there some time. It's clearly very different than New England. |

What natural (non-synthetic) fabrics are good for the winter? Some of the synthetic "furs" are pretty good at repelling snow too, and thinsulate has a number of nice properties that too. I don't see the point to limiting yourself to natural materials. |

How do I reseal a tent bottom with many pinprick holes I don't understand the question. By "pan" do you mean some sort of rubberized floor? All tents I've ever seen develop pinprick holes in the floor, and mine is no exception. But as long as there isn't surface groundwater, why does it matter? Don't put the tent in a place where surface water collects if it rains, but then again that's just common sense anyway. What exactly is the problem? |

Campsites in Virginia which allow alcohol? As someone who appreciates the outdoors for what they are, I'd rather you stay home and have your beer party your own back yard. That said, as long as you don't act like a jerk and are discrete, nobody will notice and therefore care. The problem is that most of the beer guzzling yahoos in the woods do act like jerks, so rules were made. |

What backwoods trick to get pure water produces the most safe water? It's not clear whether this question is about collecting water, or making is safe to dring once you have somehow collected it. |
