    Glock e-tool

    I haven't seen this before. I like it. I'm actually considering getting one for myself now. You never know when something like this will come in handy!

    Flexible Waterproof Containers?

    I didn't even know they made something that could form to your pack; what a brilliant invention. I also didn't know you couldn't reuse certain "plastics". :(

    Tenderfoot needs good boots

    What in the world is plantar fasciitis? I'm afraid to Google it. =x Honestly, I used to get steel toes from Wal-Mart and they worked out rather nicely for hiking.

    Bikers on the Road

    In my area there are a lot of bikers that will use the road as if they are an actual car. In some cases there isn't a bike lane. What can I do, as a driver, to make sure I don't hit you? Are you watching for cars or is it our responsibility to know where you're going?

    Do you take wood with you?

    I don't take wood with me. We either purchase locally where we are going, or we find wood to use at the campsite. It seems convenient to take your own, but Mother Nature has a way of backfiring convenience.

    Cars built for camping

    I've never heard of anything like this. If I were to do a vehicle tent, I'd like to do something over the flat bed. I like the thought of the tent being on top of the truck, too, though.

    Fire Log

    I came across this picture the other day: Have you ever tried to do something like this? Does it actually work? It looks like it would be fun to try but I'm not sure how useful it is.

    How hot can I use a 20* bag?

    Experimenting is a great idea before using it out in the wild when you don't have any alternatives. I say blast it as high as you like. ;)

    Tenting vs. hammocking. Is weight really an adavantage?

    The only time I've slept in a hammock is on a warm summer's day in my Grandmother's backyard. Hammocks are not made for camping, they are made for lounging!

    Health Concerns

    How do you know if you are healthy enough to Scuba? I have a bum ticker. Before I begin looking into the adventures of Scuba Diving, I'd like to find out if I need to be cautious of my heart, lungs, and anxiety build up.

    Gift for a new horse owner

    A hat! I would get her a nice hat to help shade the sun while she is out there taking care of her new friend. If that's not enough, perhaps some boots to match.

    Camels are Cool

    Camels are neat; I'll give you that one. We recently took our son to an outdoor Easter festival. They had a camel near the petting zoo.

    Splints?

    If this were to happen to me, I imagine myself using tree limbs and duct tape. I always carry duct tape with me. Duct tape is one of the most useful inventions to date, in my opinion.

    Do You Forage To Supplement Your Food Supplies?

    I stay away from plants out in the wild. I would like to learn more about them, but I'd also much prefer to enjoy the calmness of my adventure rather than worry if what I'm about to eat is poisonous.

    Do you need a license for a jet-ski?

    I imagine each state, maybe even each county, has its own set of rules. When we were in Utah, we didn't have a license for jet skis. That doesn't mean we didn't technically need one, though. I've never looked into it.

    Boat Name

    Let's hear what you've named your vessel. If you haven't named your boat yet, you're swimming on bad luck waters. My boat will be named Das Boote.

    Barefoot Shoes?

    I understand what they were trying to go with when it comes to the design; they look very form fitting and comfortable. I'm disappointed to hear they were smelly. :( I've thought about getting a pair before.

    Too many choices

    Be wary of project bikes, make sure it runs well! I'm indecisive when it comes to bigger purchases, too. You want them to last and do their job.

    Where do you like to climb? gym or outside

    The walls at the gym are the best place for me to practice. I get nervous practicing anywhere else. Admittedly I’ve only been a few times.

    Ouch. =( You should always go on extreme sports outings with the proper gear on your person. Who cares what you look like, at least you'll be safe.
