I really like your concept of the outdoors. i used to camp and hike in my scouting days. i love the outdoors, joined a mountaineering group but somehow there seems to be something wrong with their concepts.id like to join on your trips one of these days.

[pinoyapache]

Mainstream activities like mountain climbing and backpacking rely more on gears, pictures of jumping people and packed lunch (sic). My concept of outdoor activity is more on adaptation and being in a real world. No fancy stuff just grassroots learning of survival skills.

Nocturnal Hunting is postponed to November. Reason: I am on mourning.

October 27-28: The untried traverse from Mt. Manunggal to Guadalupe will push through.
