I want to see that ammo can stove, very cool idea.

For the PDX crew:
Portland Winters are Loooooong and I can't wait for Spring/Summer so I watch this every now and then on the darker days.
Crack a cold one and enjoy if you like. I hope you can appreciate it as much as I do. I am so glad they made this video it truly helps me get through the long Winters here. I am originally from California where the Sun shines year round.

CJ, I have a request, would you be willing to give a little Orienteering Class at Nehalem? I would love to learn how to work and read my compasses.
Beer, Compasses, Cool Peeps and of course the Elijah Craig Wood Stove to keep things warm.
Truly this would be awesome for me to learn from someone who know how not to get lost. I have gotten lost bad one time and did not have a compass. Perhaps you can address finding your way with out a compass too? _________________ VW

Sure, I think I can make that happen.
Or you can take my class on this topic as well! See www.mazamas.org --> Education --> Skill Builder classes --> scroll to bottom for wilderness navigation. Taught 3x per year by moi.
