    @SIB Thanks for the link. Truly sad, a hermit living in peace. With bats and mice survived for 11 years disease free. Forced out because residency is illegal? Tell that to the animals that call the mountain home. Is he no different then the bats and mice he lived with?

    Waterproofing explained my friends

    If your worried about getting wet, dont travel. Carry 55 gallon trash bags with you and a tarp(s). Worry about getting dry not wet. Goretex can be expensive. Be careful what you waterproof. It will loose its ability to breath. Which can cause some bad things. (fungal infections)

    Wilderness Extended

    CAUTION: Not really effective it may work but the string will not lock keeping tension to suffocate the animal. Get some picture hanging wire. Unless you plan on using spring poles. Hopefully gravity will keep the tension. I would not recommend guitar strings.

    USGI 4-piece sleep system

    Heard many awesome things about it. Highly recommended in the survival/bushcraft community. Wizehop has the bivy cover as seen from his vids. I'm lookin to get one also. But making a bag out of 55 gallon trash bags and grass/leaves also works. I carry 5 bags with me on my hikes.
