  3. The EMP, CME, Grid-Down, No Power SHTF Forum
    OK, first off, I've not been active on the forums in almost 10 years. Not for any other reason than I just sort of stepped away from the Internet. Turned off social media channels, stopped using Gmail... just got tired of being plugged in. So, instead I chose to go online using a more secure...
  4. Wilderness Survival, Hiking and Camping Forum
    This winter I went to ski. I rent the equipment and I climbed up to 2000 meters with the ski lift. This happened in Romania, Carpathian mountains. Until I reached the 2000 meters it took about 15 minutes because the ski lift is slow. In a zone with lots of trees while in the ski lift I saw a red...

    Anyone else in the upper-midwest looking at -40 to -60 windchills the next couple days? I kind of joke that all you need is plenty of ammo and beer. Seriously, it's gotten me to wondering about living here in MN. When the outdoors itself is deadly within a few minutes of exposure, there's...

    Two of us were looking to go camp in the Chippewa National Forest up in the Deer River area for three nights, kind of a cold-weather gear test, and a monkey wrench has been thrown into our plans. I had contacted the Deer River Ranger District a few weeks back to discuss options and find out the...

    Now that the 2 chickens are happy in their new home/my yard, and were already trained to go into their big steel cage at 8:00PM on the dot, how do I keep them warm in Ne winters? My friend moved, and brought them over with their big steel cage, about 3'x5'x6' tall and has locking wheels that...
  8. Disaster Preparedness General Discussion
    Guys and gals, springtime is almost upon us. Before we know it the weather will be warm enough to go hiking, fishing, camping... etc. Some people do that kind of stuff year round, so its no big deal to them. I am working on getting the legs active after having to stay inside from this...
  9. Urban Survival
    So the weather has not been cooperating lately. It has been -30 and with windchill -40 for the better part of two weeks. Going outside can be an option but I am avoiding the long hikes ect as small mistakes can turn you in to a meat popsicle in no time. This has got me to doing a few things...

    I have a few ideas but I figured I may as well see what you guys think. Next July my lease is up here in Winnipeg, Manitoba Canada. My brother and I (both of us has a prepper mindset) are moving out to a small village about and hour and 20 mins from the city. We have some property with a cabin...
  11. DIY - Do It Yourself
    Hey everybody, This is my first post in LONG time. unfortunately due to life, work, and many other circumstances, my free time has been OVERLY invaded for far too long. However, good news is that last fall, I was able to purchase and move to the country and am now enjoying country life once...
  12. Disaster Preparedness General Discussion
    I'm trying to prepare for what looks to be a very cold winter here in South Dakota... I have a propane tank out back - the central heat runs on a furnace but doesn't appear to be very efficient. I have space heaters but am concerned they will use too much electricity. Because I rent, getting a...

    Is it me or does it seem there is not enough emphasis on winter conditions during SHTF? or teotwawki. no grid. not reliant on guzoline machines. (:mad:max) Thoughts on? Snow removal/plowing while trying to conserve energy. like snow shovels! Security, patrolling your BOL. Guard posts...

    Has any had a problem with leaving their HTs in the car during winter (not talking about theft, more life of the device)? I guess it's a silly question since there are so many electronics in the car by default, but for some reason I'm nervous the cold will mess with the LCD screen somewhat...
  15. Farming, Gardening & Homesteading
    OK, this might be a dumb question, but someone asked me, and I didn't know the answer, so... If you live in the northern states where it gets below zero in the winter, what do you do with your chickens in the winter? Do you get them a heated henhouse, or do you butcher them before the snow...

    Spring is here! Happy, happy! So, what are you harvesting now and how are you storing it? Love to hear what everyone's busy with. :) Here on the Gulf Coast, I've dug my Louisiana multiplier onions (walking onions aren't ready yet). Hung some in an old peanut net bag and froze the rest...

  19. Ladies Section
    I'm wondering how many other Northerners we have here, who need to be able to cope with VERY VERY few light hours in the winter in combo with extreme cold temps (below freezing for months). Are there any other in this forum who are working to resolve the "what will you do without electricity...

    Hi all, Long time no see! The reason for opening this thread is mainly this: I'm not saying I believe that guy 100%, but he had a couple of hits. I'd like to be prepared just in case, you never know when something happens. So please tell me what will I need, given this situation: family...
