  • Winter Camping and Backpacking Tips
    Winter Camping and Backpacking Tips Camping or backpacking in the snow appeals to anyone who enjoys the beauty and peacefulness of a pristine winter wonderland. There are no bugs or crowds, and who doesn't enjoy playing in the snow? With a little preparation, you also might be surprised at how comfortable it can be. Here's a look at how to get started. Pre-trip Planning Winter outings offer different challenges than summer camping. You must be prepared for more severe weather and shorter daylight hours by having extra gear and additional skills. Before you leave home, have a plan. Don't go alone. Share your adventure with a few friends who have expertise in different winter skills (snow shelters, route finding, snow travel, etc.). Study maps and research the area. How long will it take to get there and set up camp? If something goes wrong, what emergency services (i.e., medical, search & rescue) are closest? Talk to people who have been there and can give you pointers. Check the weather forecast. Are conditions favorable? The NOAA-NWS Web site offers detailed backcountry forecasts. Check the local road and trail conditions. Recognize and avoid avalanche areas. Check the local avalanche forecast and don't go if avalanche danger is high. Keep in mind that avalanche forecasts may be general and not accurate for specific areas. If you are on or near any slope greater than 20°, your group should have formal avalanche training. Leave a trip plan. Let others know where you'll be, when you'll be there, when you'll return, vehicle information and names and contact number for participants in your group.

    OKPIK ADVISOR PLANNING GUIDE 2019-2020 NORTHERN TIER HIGH ADVENTURE PROGRAMS BOY SCOUTS OF AMERICA “Delivering Wilderness Adventure That Lasts a Lifetime” Northern Tier High Adventure Programs PO Box 509 Ely, MN 55731 Phone: 218.365.4811 Fax 218.365.3112 E-mail: [email protected] Website: www.ntier.org Welcome! For over forty years the Okpik program of Northern Tier National High Adventure Programs has provided safe, exhilarating and challenging adventures for thousands of youth and adult participants. The name, Okpik, comes from the Inuit word for the Arctic or Snowy Owl which has been used as the symbol for the Okpik program since it began in the early 1970’s. Okpik Participants learn how to cross-country ski, snowshoe, dogsled, ice fish, build snow shelters and enjoy life in extreme weather conditions and temperatures. All groups are accompanied by a trained staff instructor, called an Interpreter, who serves as a teacher of cold weather camping skills. The Okpik program fully outfits crews with group gear and almost all necessary personal clothing (see the included gear list). The goal of the Okpik program is to instruct crews on how to see low temperatures as an opportunity, not a barrier, to turn a 3-season camper into a year-round camper. Okpik is hosted at the Charles L. Sommers base of Northern Tier, outside of Ely, Minnesota. Crews explore the Superior National Forest and the famed Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness (BWCAW), a massive wilderness area that lies directly adjacent to the base property. No city lights, no noise, simply wilderness.

  • Tourism and Forest Livelihoods: Linking Architecture with Tropical Forest Management
    TOURISM AND FOREST LIVELIHOODS: LINKING ARCHITECTURE WITH TROPICAL FOREST MANAGEMENT By JOSÉ ANTONIO SIERRA HUELSZ A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2016 © 2016 José Antonio Sierra Huelsz To Mane and Mateo, my sources of inspiration and love To my parents for their ever loving support ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I am deeply grateful to my exceptional advisor Dr. Karen A. Kainer for her generous mentoring, for being a great teacher, colleague and friend. My committee contributed substantially to the conception of this dissertation, pushing me to think in new directions. I am very thankful to Erick Keys, Francis “Jack” Putz, Patricia Negreros- Castillo and Salvador Gezan for their stimulating perspectives and feedback. In particular, I am in debt with Dr. Negreros-Castillo for inspiring me to work in Quintana Roo and facilitating my landing in the Zona Maya. I would like to thank Wendell P. Cropper for his kind support at the early stages of this journey. This dissertation was enriched by the time, knowledge, and creativity of Sebastián Palmas Pérez, Angélica Navarro Martinez, Pedro Antonio Macario Mendoza, and Mirna Valdez Hernández - all who kindly collaborated in this process. Santos Colli Balam has been an irreplaceable friend, bush colleague, and cultural ambassador. Without Angel David Cab Argüelles, Edgar Can Balam, and the ever supportive X-Pichil crew, my fieldwork plans would be just an unrealized dream. Tarín Toledo Aceves, Eddie A. Ellis and Horacio Paz Hernández kindly provided essential support for accessing funds that helped make this project possible; many thanks to you all.

    Cabinology with Dale Mulfinger Ologies Podcast June 25, 2019 Oh Hey! It’s that friend who can’t sit at a diner table without making modular sculptures with the half & half creamers, can’t not do it! Alie Ward, back with another episode of Ologies. Great news, kiddos! I got some news for you. You ready? This episode is not about ticks. Yesss! Are you stoked? Now that we have covered some basic health and safety, i.e. me just reminding you, check those crevices, kind of like a flight attendant demonstrating an inflatable vest. But now you know, let’s get this summer show on the road. There are sprinklers to run through, there’s campfire smoke to dodge, some sandal tans to get, barbeques, reunions. Before we hit the road, let’s make a pit stop at ThankYouVille, to say thanks to all the folks supporting this podcast on Patreon. I literally could not make the show without you. Thank you to all the folks wearing Ologies merch on your actual physical bodies and talking up the show to your fam while you make pies. Thank you to everyone who, for zero dollars, rate, and subscribes, and leaves the reviews for me to read, because you know I do, like a lady creep. And then I read you one aloud, such as this fresh one from CrazyDogMom1227 who compared me to a, “gently excited Richard Simmons but for science instead of high kicks.” And said that I’ll, “Teach about all sorts of things, especially things that you didn’t think you’d find interesting.

  • Introductions to Heritage Assets: Shielings
    Shielings Introductions to Heritage Assets Summary Historic England’s Introductions to Heritage Assets (IHAs) are accessible, authoritative, illustrated summaries of what we know about specific types of archaeological site, building, landscape or marine asset. Typically they deal with subjects which have previously lacked such a published summary, either because the literature is dauntingly voluminous, or alternatively where little has been written. Most often it is the latter, and many IHAs bring understanding of site or building types which are neglected or little understood. This IHA provides an introduction to shielings (huts that served as temporary, summer, accommodation for people involved in transhumance, that is the removal of stock from permanent dwellings to exploit areas of summer pasture some distance away from the main settlement). Descriptions of the asset type and its development as well as its associations and a brief chronology are included. A list of in‑depth sources on the topic is suggested for further reading. This document has been prepared by Rob Young and edited by Joe Flatman and Pete Herring. It is one of a series of 41 documents. This edition published by Historic England October 2018. All images © Historic England unless otherwise stated. Please refer to this document as: Historic England 2018 Shielings: Introductions to Heritage Assets. Swindon. Historic England. HistoricEngland.org.uk/listing/selection-criteria/scheduling-selection/ihas- archaeology/ Front cover Shielings at Shiels Brae, Bewcastle in the valley of the River White Lynne, Cumbria. Plan shows at least three phases of construction. Introduction A shieling is a hut, found singly or in small groups, usually in upland areas which today we would consider as agriculturally marginal land.

  • Bothies: What Are They?
    Bothies: What are they? And why should I care? What’s it all about? Bothies. You probably don’t give them much thought. They’re empty buildings, generally in the middle of nowhere, that walkers can use to stay in. A bothy is an open shelter free to anyone to use, whether to stop in by for a break, for shelter from the weather or to stay for the night. It’s going to be basic – very basic sometimes – maybe just with four walls and a roof, with sleeping and seating both on the concrete or wooden floor. You won’t find a warden there to keep an eye on how people behave or to check you leave it in good order. Tigh Seamus Dubh a Ghlinne, in Glen Duror It’s very easy to get the impression that bothies aren’t looked after, and are just abandoned shells that belong to everyone to do with whatever they like. “There’s no wood for the fire, but that bench isn’t important, we can burn that. If we don’t then someone else will...” So let’s get some things straight. Bothies DON’T belong to everyone.
