It's so cool! “I really love to sleep outside WITHOUT a tent or tarp! Never in my entire life did I have so much fun!!! Try it sometime. Just make sure the bugs a minimal however!” 2:08:10 PM 9/09/03 “Two words......spiders....snakes....” 2:12:53 PM 9/09/03 “Dang. How about that India & Isreal thing.” 2:15:22 PM 9/09/03 “divinity is a Jim Stafford fan I bet...” 2:16:46 PM 9/09/03 “I don't like Spiders and snakes, but that's not what it takes to love me...” 2:17:39 PM 9/09/03 Artex likes it! “"How many of you have ever slept out in the open, no tent, no tarp, no nothing? I've done it a few times, it's quite refreshing. Bugs have to be minimal though." Artex 02:02:24 PM 09/09/03” 2:21:17 PM 9/09/03 “"Once I was swimming 'crossed Turtle Creek, Man them snappers all around my feet, Sore was hard swimmin' 'cross that thing with both hands on my diggling!"” 2:21:53 PM 9/09/03 “Sing it Chuck!” 2:23:51 PM 9/09/03 “I use just a bivy bag when the weather is looking good. Not one of those ones that have the poles and such, but a real simple one that is basically just a water proof bag cover. The stars at night, they shine so bright..... Especially when your head is not covered by a tent.” 2:24:18 PM 9/09/03 “I've done it several times. Any Boy Scout has.” 2:24:54 PM 9/09/03 “I just use a bivy sack in winter. I've posted about it quite often.” 2:29:18 PM 9/09/03 FINALLY...A Hiking Thread From OH “It's about time, OH. I slept outside without a tarp or tent last weekend...and I was in the woods too.” 2:42:31 PM 9/09/03 “probably more times that i can count... I do it quite often” 2:50:42 PM 9/09/03 “Hp, don't forget about those crappy troops that hardly go camping in cabins. I bet you 50% of my troop has never been camping w/o a tent. Basicaly unless you are doing wilderness survival merit badge you can use a tent.....my troop suckED... Yes ED, for past tence. Thank god I am out of there. PS: my venture crew is looking twards philmont this year....!!!” 2:53:20 PM 9/09/03 “I have done it up in Canada several times when the bugs are not to bad. The last time I was up there and sleeping outdoors, I had a mouse curl up in between my neck and cheek to keep warm.” 2:55:47 PM 9/09/03 “Sweet, you going back? I just got reservations for three crews for Northen Tier.” 2:56:41 PM 9/09/03 “Hmmm. If I'm lucky, my crew will be a sister crew with Tea this summer! when are you going to be there T ?” 3:26:33 PM 9/09/03 I need a Venturer's contact in TN “Hey Humanpackmule, I was just thinking that maybe I ought to volunteer for the gals- I loved leading my son's cub den and he just made it to Star and Philmont last Summer. Love those Scouts and think it might be fun- know any one? Treebait Know anyone here?
