Backpacking with Pack Goats & Dogs to a Trout Fishing Lake, Camping & Firebox Stove Cooking

Every time I've seen people out hiking with dogs, I've thought backpacking with goats would be a lot of fun. I've never been a real fan of dogs and cats, but I think goats could haul a lot of gear, provide companionship without all the silliness domestic pets offer. I get that goats kind of crap everywhere, though they can be potty trained to only pee in specific places. Their barnyard animals, but much more useful I'd argue then dogs for many uses.

Solo Camping in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula.

The UP looks like a nice place to explore, with all the sand and woods. Probably a lot like the area around Chase Lake in the Western Adirondacks or Moose River Plains, only larger and flatter.

Silvel Diesel Heater. Follow up video. THE TENT. What have I learned. Questions answered.

They seem to work pretty good until the EPA catches on and starts to ban their import. They're relatively inexpensive and maybe some point I'll have to get one, as it sure would be nice to heat my truck cap with one, you can run it all night and just warm, dry air pushed into your truck cap or tent, while the dirty diesel burning part it's outside. Does require about an 1 amp of electricity an hour (12 watts) to run though though.
