<2022-07-29T22:48:08.000Z> anime_outdoor: This guy does a lot of cool shelter building 
<2022-07-29T22:52:43.000Z> anime_outdoor: Hiking is pretty different from Bushcraft; one is about building things, and the other is about traveling somewhere, so it really depends on what your interests and goal is 
<2022-07-29T22:53:05.000Z> anime_outdoor: It’s good to learn some basic fire starting and shelter making either way
<2022-07-30T05:37:03.000Z> SolCreed: This is more than enough to get started! I appreciate the detailed introduction
<2022-07-30T05:37:42.000Z> SolCreed: I have some videos to binge watch. Thanks a million friend

<2022-07-30T06:05:10.000Z> anime_outdoor: ^good way to start out is just using a cheap hardware store tarp, and that’s my go to way to do it 
<2022-07-30T06:12:21.000Z> anime_outdoor: Although you don’t actually have to use tarred bank line like he does, just substitute some other small diameter rope 
<2022-07-30T06:33:42.000Z> SolCreed: Good to know! I'll have to check out his other videos too.
<2022-07-30T06:52:25.000Z> SolCreed: Yeah once i take some notes and have some practice ill probably start looking for a place to go backpacking. Have a multi day adventure you know?
<2022-07-30T07:10:00.000Z> anime_outdoor: Get a Sawyer squeeze from Walmart for a water filter, don’t bother with the mini or a lifestraw.
<2022-07-30T07:11:41.000Z> anime_outdoor: Either that or the Platypus QuickDraw (a bit better than the Sawyer imo, but also $7 more and not at Walmart)
