  1. A small point on using tarps with cordage. Avoid making holes or eylets on a tarp, because it weakens the material and risk ripping the tarp after some use. Instead use buttons. An ancient technique where you take a small pebble and wrap a small section of the tarp around the pebble and then you tie one end of your cord around the tarp that wraps the pebble and the other end at wherever you wish to secure it. This way you use the strength of all the little individual threads that the tarp is weaved from and reduce the weak points of the material.

  2. Try smoking heartmeat as well. Wasn't long ago since my brother in law gifted me with some smoked moose heart. Delicious! 😊
