Katadyn Pocket Water Microfilter Review
In my opinion, a water filter is one of the most important pieces of gear you can carry. Without water, your chances of surviving for any length of time are pretty minimal. Not having enough clean drinkable water prevents your body from carry out its normal functions, and can lead to death in as little as three days (possibly much sooner in harsh desert environments). Whether you’re a hiker, a prepper or just someone who enjoys wilderness activities, having a way to obtain clean drinkable water is essential to your survival. Over the years I have encountered a number of different types of water filters. Why I prefer the Katadyn Pocket Microfilter The Katadyn Pocket Microfilter is no skimpy water filter, the thing is tough and can take a beating. The manufacturer claims that it’s built for a lifetime of use, and they back up their claim with a lifetime warranty. Through countless number of excursions into the wilderness, this filter has never once failed to deliver clean drinkable water.

Custom Tree House Plans, DIY Ideas & Building Designs
No, really: would you want to design, build and live in an real fantasy tree house all year round? More and more people have decided to do just that and where treehouses were once novelty architecture for kids they are now (almost) mainstream structures, as attested to by the pictures above via Bella Seven. Many modern tree house designs and home designers and custom builders take a site-specific approach and construct their tree buildings around not only views and rooms but also have to account for access and structural support in unique and novel ways. While a lot of attention is paid to lofty plans by fashionable designers, there are many people who continue to use quite conventional home-building plans, techniques and materials to construct tree homes and cabins that look much like ordinary residences on the ground below. And moving into the future, who is to say that tree houses will not continue to be considered for ever-more-urban applications?

First, a quick summary of what you will learn in this lesson: Align the edge of the compass with the starting and finishing point. Here is our compass again: The principles are much the same as in lesson 1 but this time, you are using the map to tell you which way is correct instead of your intuition. Take a map.

When you are sure you have the compass housing right, you may take the compass away from the map. Hold the compass in your hand. It's time to walk off.

How to Disappear so that No One can find YOU!
There are many reasons you might want to disappear, some honorable some not so honorable. Maybe you have a stalker or you would like more privacy, maybe you are avoiding domestic violence or identity theft... whatever the reason is here are a few tips that will help you do just that. The very first thing you should do if you would like to make your earthly presence a little less conspicuous is to stop getting your mail at the place you live. A post office box really wont do either because you need two forms of identification linking you to the place you live. However, you can get a post office box with an old address if you have recently moved and still have a utility bill and one other item with your old address on it. Another alternative is to rent a mail box using an old address. If you have a friend that will let you use their mailbox and you don't get a lot of mail you could ask them and have your mail sent there. The second thing you need to do is to quit using your credit cards.
