We have one of those Big buddy tent heaters so we can keep a tent that is getting pounded by snow in the 50 to 60 degree range and be very comfertable. Even with out the tent heater camping in the snow is still...

    Gasoline As An Acclerant?

    I have seen a lot of people say they mastered starting fires with gasoline. They say you have to mixed it with motor oil to get it to burn. I havent been around to see if their right, I dont care because I wont use gas to start a fire in any situation.

    Hot Hot Heat? Go Spelunking!

    You got to start caving some time, so it shouldnt be a problem if they never caved. I love ice caves during the summer. It can be over 100 outside and there will be ice inside the caves.

    Magnificent Views

    The views I love the most are when out in volcanic areas hiking to the top of volcanic craters. I love going across lava flows hiking up the side of cinder cones and such and being able to look down inside of a crater that its depth is almost the same as its height.

    Never fits in!

    Any time I buy a new tent, blow up matteress or whatever I always have a pen and paper on hand and draw out how I un folded it. That way when it is time to go back in I refold it the same way it came out. Perfect fit every time! Rockytibby had the idea right on the money.

    What would you do? Ideas - wet wood

    Yes, all gasoline is a BIG FAT NO. I wont explain because you should not be tempted to see what it can do. But it will not start a fire very well, if at all but might burn you so quik you would not realize it. I have used wd-40, it is not super bad, but not safe either. A last resort.
