Setting up the Inner tentPlace the four corners (depending on your tent) down and spread them out so that the base part of the tent is on the ground. Peg out each corner of your tent, by pegging each opposite corner, then finishing on the other corners and if there are any central peg points as well. PolesSnap together your poles and ensure that you know which poles are for each section of your tent. Carefully run your poles through your inner tent and snap through the pole eyelet in each corner. Your tent should be taking shape now. Outer TentPull the outer tent over the inner tent and clip the outer tent to the tent poles. Then pull out the outer tent and peg out as far as possible to ensure there is distance between the inner and outer tent, to ensure that any water doesn't make your inner wet. Again start at one corner and then peg out the opposite corner then the other central points. Also there may be other guy ropes on the side of your tent that you can peg down or tie to near by trees to make you nights sleep a little more stable. Tent ZippersMake sure once you have set up your tent and place all your items inside that you zip up all entrance and exit points so that no insects get in to make for a relaxed mozzie free night.Ski edges can be sharpened (tuned) easily and cheaply using a file and a file guide, which you can purchase from most shops.
The guide makes sure the file is set to a specific angle, as you pull it along the edges of your skis a few times, until you can see that the edges have been sharpened. There's no need to overdo it, as ski edges do slowly wear down with every service. Angles vary between 1 and 3 degrees, but 1 is a good standard for recreational skiiers.
After you have sharpened your edges, you need to dull the edges at the front and back of the ski, a few inches around where the ski profile comes to its widest point. This is done by pulling a diamond stone over a few inches at the front and back once or twice. If the edges aren't 'de-tuned' at these points, your ski will want to turn all the time, instead of just when you apply pressure in a certain direction.
There are other steps you can take, such as polishing your edges, but it isn't greatly noticeable in performance for a recreational skiier.
Shops will use machines that basically do the same thing, but more precisely.
Note: If you do your edges at the wrong angle/ file away too much, you will have a problem! Use a tool for the job or:
If you are still unsure how to do the edges yourself, ask an expert at a ski shop/ ski service shop to show you how.

Can a 15 year old kid go camping by them self?
I know many sixteen year olds that are quite capable of camping by themselves. Some even more than most adults. But I would recommend against ever camping alone. There are too many things that can go wrong even for an experienced camper/woodsman. You at least need someone else to get help if something happens. I think that you should be and also must be at least eighteen to camp in a federal or state park/forest.
What do you need to go camping?
It depends on the kind of camping you want to do. If you are going camping with a lot of people in the same site you will need several small or one very large tent. You will also need a large cooler full of beer and another large cooler full of food. You are also going to need a sleeping bag and a pillow. You can get sleeping bags that fit the climate temperature for where you are camping so you are neither too hot or cold at night. You will also have to bring the appropriate clothing. Shorts are good for hiking and swimming and t-shirts are also great. If it gets cold at night in your location, you will need to bring clothes that will keep you plenty warm, such as a sweatshirt or a jacket. Try not to bring too many clothes and anything you wear you can just rinse off in a river and hang to dry. Make sure you bring a change of clothes so you aren't left naked. Bring something to do! Here are a few suggestions! 1.Fishing Pole w/ tackle box 2.Books 3.Something to play catch with 4.Playing Cards 5.Dominoes There is a few other necessities you will need to survive a trip in the woods. 1.One or two Lanterns 2.Firewood 3.Bug Spray 4.Flashlight 5.Camp stove or Grill for fire pit. (plus pots and pans!) 6. A Good Attitude! Camping can be hard! Make sure you show up at your camp spot when it's still light outside, because setting up a tent in the dark is near impossible; unless you know your tent really well.
Minimalist camping may appear repetitive considering the fact that lots of people camp to get from our intensely materialist lifestyles. Nevertheless, considering most of the hiking equipment that's marketed at people who like to camp, it is feasible to end up hauling an alternative for nearly anything in your house and to conclude by setting-up a little-fortress away from home. Whereis in hauling material and all of your duties along with you, the enjoyment? Because it is about gear, minimalist camping is much about mindset, and permitting the area to just progress to oneself will be all's aspect. Demonstrate the over- consumerist campers and packers just how camping should really be!

Why do nudist resorts and clubs have only old aging gray haired people as members?
Nudist resorts and clubs tend to have older members for a few reasons. Firstly, older individuals may have more free time and disposable income to spend on leisure activities like joining nudist clubs. Additionally, older generations may have been more exposed to nudism as a cultural phenomenon and therefore more likely to participate. Lastly, younger individuals may feel more self-conscious about their bodies and less comfortable with public nudity, leading to a higher proportion of older members in nudist communities.

The difference with a house is that you can own a house. You don't have a owner to your house, houseseasily cost 3x as much as an apartment! On the contrary, you can tear down a wall and paint everything green in your own house. Also you can always mess up your house and it be cool. But most are basic, with a handful of bedrooms and a couple bathrooms in a urban, or suburban area
The difference with an apartment is an apartment is rented/leased to those who occupy it. An apartment is managed by a landlord and a house is managed by the person to whom it belongs to maintenance is also a big difference. In an apartment, any alteration or remodeling procedure has to be performed, or at least approved by the landlord's usually the deal is, before two people get married, they live in an apartment before buying their own house. But it depends on your situation and preferences. Apartments also vary in size, and location too.
