What are the key features to look for in mobile device apps for hiking/camping? Questions asking for mobile/computer programs to do software recommendations & such are off-topic, as per the current policy. Perhaps someone can raise this on Meta Great Outdoors if you/they feel this should be on topic. |

Which knot for climbing: figure eight, yosemite bowline, bowline on a bight? Yeah, +1. Figure eights, especially doubles, are easy to untie and very easy to check. Just look for an 8! |

What to bring into a tree stand? It's all good, I recently took a hunter safety course, and so we specifically talked about tree stands and guns, etc... so just wanted to make sure. Perhaps edit your post to ask more along the lines of what you should have in your tree stand with you, not necessarily what you would bring up in your pack? Cheers and happy hunting! :) |

What are some good ways to waterproof a geocache / letterbox? oh, like that. I was thinking more of a gallon/two gallon jug that apple cider or bottled water comes in at the store... +1 to you, I like that idea. |
