Did you lose a pot? I have a big pot with a wire attached that had yummy vegetarian chili in it. I thought this was yours? Is it? If not, do you know whose it is?

Do you think I could get a ride with you down to the Primitive Gathering in October? I feel like it could be somewhat on the way. Actually I just google mapped it and you go right by here. You'd be passing through whether I hopped in or not. Is there space? Let me know. Thanks

A lot of hard core no necked nugs gave Dakota grief for this one because it wasn't "survival", but it is a great way to share skills. Dakota has a sever form of dyslexia, he can't read, coupled with tourrette's syndrom. We have had to find creative…
It does. Remember that the tannic acid actually curdles the protiens i the skin, including internally. This creates the astringency, and also produces a biological "band aid" of a layer of your own tanned hide. I used tannic acid wash from Oak galls…
Wet wood ash, used as a paste and rinsed qickly to avoid chemical burns (prolonged direct contact over a minute) is a great way to remove pitch and other hard to get off yer skin adherents.
