Another trip to the hills for a hunt this morning. Today I took my Junglas.

ESEE-4 at home this weekend

I didn't know if I would love the green coating, but I kinda love it in mine. It's functional yet fits the vibe of my ESEE 5.

Yeah i like it, mine in the photo came with orange scales but I swapped them for these plain scales. I also found the green of any model model was always the cheapest for some reason.

Day hike with a nice spot for a coffee break
Grim approved of this spot

Brought my Izula, Firebox Nano, Trangia Kettle and Swedish Fold-a-Cups for a nice hot Nescafe.

Windy conditions made it take a while before the water was boiling

Great spot to sit for a while

Eventually it was time to move on

Had some time to go out today.
played a bit with tarp configs over my hammock and made lunch.
Brought the Esee 6, Firebox Nano, cast Iron skillet, bread, choriso and gingerroot (for tea)
Grim just chilled

First boiled some water for tea

Sliced the girgerroot

Sliced the sausages while my skillet was heating up, love that little pan

Don't forget to stir things

Sliced some bread when the sausage was done

And time to eat now

tasty and fun again

Grim was under the tarp the whole time

Time for him to run now

One side really stripped the other side not so much though when playing with the angles and light the stripes magically appear. Just hard to catch it in photo.

In the 1st and the 8th photo is that a "Drip Line" hanging down from the hammock suspension line? We used them so during a rain storm, water would not run down the suspension line and into your hammock. John

That knife looks fantastic!

It is a prusic knot with a clip on the end, used originally to attach the tarp/rainfly that comes with this Hennessy hammock to the suspensioncords over the hammock.
As I prefer to use my own tarp over the factory tarp it now functions as a tiny drip line If I tie driplines myself I usually make the a bit longer so the wind won't blow the drops falling of deep inside the shelter

An older ESEE-5 and if anyone is interested the rifle was made in the early 1930's, a Model 33 Remington 22lr

Thanks mate, my wife doesn't listen when i tell her about whistles, so i like to show them off when i can. That 1913 Hudson saw action in the first world war. It has a great tone. Much to my wifes dismay my 8 year old son is taking an interest in whistles too, especially anything train related.
