    Tent Camp Deer Camp Food Question

    in General Chit Chat

    Posted

    A lot is going to depend upon how much you want to pack in. If you have room I'd recommend one of those mini single burner stoves that sits on top of a one pound propane tank, with a base of course. A small perculator bunch of coffee, some canned fruit salad, you can put it in Ziploc bags doubled up. Bunch of sliced ham is always good and it keeps a while. You can pick up deli meats and do the same thing with the Ziploc bags, just considering conserving packing space. Maybe even some kielbasa or bratwurst.

    Milwaukee Heated Sweat Shirts?

    Don't put between sock layers, especially if the base layer sock is thin.  It definitely is warmer that way, but I got a burned foot from that - I can take off my shoe and sock to snap a picture of it if you like, blister and all.  I was using HotHands brand, non-adhesive foot warmers.

    I would agree with that if your using the thicker non-adhesive pocket - hand warmers. But the thinner adhesive toe warmers don't get that hot.

    Kind of off topic but here's a toe-toastie trick.  1 pair for each foot, two pair of socks and good insulated boots. With 3 pair of socks my feet are to tight and thaty just doesn't work. Anyhow; with one pair take one and put it on the top of your sock near your toes, not the bottom. Take another and put it right below your ankle by the heel. Do the same on your other foot. Second pair of socks over those. Check it out it works great.

     

    Edit to add; some of the cheaper off brand warmers just plain suck.

    Would you?

    Cams are no guarantee that deer will be there when you are. On the flip side the encouragement you sometimes find on them is no guarantee they'll be there when your there either.  ^_^

    Buying property and leaving trailer there.

    in Camping and Hiking

    I have my camper on the property, been there for a while now. It's on jack stands tires off the ground all leveled. There going back on next year because I want to turn it around. No utilities, but I do have about 400 watt solar array enough for refrigeration, lights, charging power tools etc. It's not an overly expensive set-up. I mean if a tree fell on the trailer that would suck but a few grand and I'd be back up and running. My closest neighbor has a small cabin on his jazz, we each have about 50 acres, but his taxes are about 40% higher.

    You guys ever have one of those 1/2 used little bottles open up on you walking to the stand? That's bad news.

    Something about buying wizz seems wrong you know but I catch myself trying the stuff now and then if anything for a cover scent. Tried that new tinks spray jazz this year, it was quiet and seemed to last, didn't seem to make a difference though.
