Homemade jerky or any dry sausage. They will all say keep refrigerated but a dry cured meat will keep. I have done this for long trip and never had an issue. I'd like to try making my own Biltong

Florist said that lots of folk use it on the inside of their ice fishing huts around here as well

I picked up a roll from the local flower shop for free. They get their bulk flowers delivered wrapped with this stuff and usually just throw out what nobody takes. I have enough to make a sleeping pad for additional warmth in the hammock.

Welcome neighbour

That is a incredibly subjective question. I would say 2 packs, plus 2 small personal packs would be plenty. I saw three guys embark on a week long trip with one giant pack. Saw a family of 4 carry enough to completely outfit a medium size cottage too.

No idea on the route, however what a fantastic idea! Incredible.

This thread is like the couch in the doctors office. :( I started solo because I had nobody who would go when I wanted to go. I solo now because I am getting too stubborn and like doing things the way I do them. And because there is nobody around to go when I want to go. It sure would be nice...

Here in Red Lake we are going through a crazy warm spell. The snowpack is disappearing and the lakes are sketchy for travel. We need a good solid freeze for another 2 weeks and some more snow or else spring will be very early. To get a warm day or two is not unusual but this has been about a...

I stopped carrying anything but the ferro rod, very confident using it and like your experience it never fails. me

One of my favs. "All you need to survive in the bush is an axe" and a guy named Angus Baptiste.

Well I wasn't expecting to spend an hour of my day doing that but boy was it worth it. Fantastic video, thanks for sharing that.

I remember seeing your paddles in Chaltrek quite a few years ago. Very nice. Welcome aboard!

so you got rid of a boat cache.

I'm not dismissing it at all but the claim of being greener than other operators is what I'm interested in. I think solar is actually cheaper than generators when you consider the cost of flying in fuel and the substantial outlay for the generator, fuel tank and flights to get those in. None...

Perhaps Schwartz can give some detail on his "green" practices. We all like the idea of a smaller footprint. Solar power is not unique nor rare in camps so you can dismiss that idea

WCPP is classed a Wilderness Park, and as such there is very restrictive motorized access year round. As many of you have experienced first hand the more portages you put between you and the motorized access points the less garbage, the less destructive impact on the land. It seems one outfitter...
