| Tools You Should Have!! |
| 2010-02-23 12:32:00 |
Last holiday was great…both entertaining and taught me important lesson, with a hard way. When you planning an outdoor activity, you really should double check what you are carrying. You don’t want your long planned holiday come to disaster just because you missed a tiny detail like carrying a knife. A simple knife should be includes in your inventory, the difference will be great whether you brought it or not. Sog Specialty Knives is the best you can have, this is very good tool, even an amateur looks like pro…but any knives will do.
Your knife should be in a good condition. There is no reason you brought a rusty knife, now that I mention it. It can cause you disaster when you get cut with rusty knife, another disaster that you must throw away from your list. Sog Flash II is a good knife, my brother told me about this series. It has multi purpose toolkit and extra safety for it blades. It is good knife indeed, last time I checked it, and will be always a good knife. Even I can ...

Each year, a large number of families decide to vacation in the summer months. Have you and your family made the decision to plan a summer vacation this year? If you have, you are not alone. The first step in planning your summer vacation is not necessarily to choose a destination, but to choose scenery.

Information and travel brochures can easily be found or ordered online. Brochures can be ordered from most large cities and popular vacation destinations in the United States or overseas, this way you can consider more carefully.

Mountain Bromo is an active volcano and the most famous tourism spot on East Java. The name Bromo itself was came from Sansekerta or Ancient Javanese language, from one of Hindus’ Eldest God, Brahma. Bromo is 2.392 meter above sea water, and covered four areas, Probolinggo, Pasuruan, Lumajang and Malang.
Bromo has a big crater, est 800 meter of diameter (north – south) and 600 meter (east – west). The red zone is circle shape between 4 km from the crater middle point. It also has a 10 kilometer wide sand desert around the mountain.The journey starts from the west gate, Pasuruan through Tosari village to reach the main area.

This is the best way to witness the beautiful sunrise from the top of penanjakan. If your adv...

| Mountain Biking Guide |
| 2008-08-14 14:50:00 |
Mountain biking is an exciting sport that can be enjoyed by anyone who knows how to ride a bike. Compared to the average bike ride, it does present some danger. Therefore, you should master these basic skills before you hit the trails or the dirt.
You can practice these beginning skills at a local park, school, bike path, or simply around your house. If you can, try to find a location with a steep hill.
Get a feel for your pedals
Practice moving your foot away from the pedal, first while sitting on your bike with one foot on the ground. Next, move on to releasing and replacing your foot while pedaling around for a bit. Those with toe clip and clipless type foot pedals will want to spend a bit more time practicing.Sit and spin for position
Simply sit on your bike and pedal around. You should keep your arms slightly bent. You should also adjust your seat height so your leg is 70 to 90 percent extended at the bottom of every stroke on the pedal. Keep your body relaxed, as there wil...

| Halloween Party |
| 2008-08-11 13:51:00 |
Have you ever dreamed to party at the top of mountain? I think it won’t be easy for every people to partying at low temperature. One should have through a training to be qualified as a hiker. It is not an ordinary hill climbs on the weekend. Prepare a decent inventory; master the most basic survival skill and still much more to do before attempting to climb a mountain. Halloween is near; I wonder if there is a man that planning to do wear a Halloween Costume over the mountain. It would be fun to watch.
Actually hiker is always using a costume, a scarf, large jacket and trouser. Consider it as a costume. My greatest imagination is to having a costume party on thousand meters away above, that would be very original. Maybe this is just the dream, because as I mentioned above I will hardly find any party partner. So I guess let’s just put it in the case. But if it really happens, it would be a highest party on the world.
Let us back to the land. Halloween party is obviously held on v...

This took a valuable hours to search somebody, a lost people mostly don’t have much time. Today, the GPS products have made it much easier to locate the missing people.

Don’t forget to carry the GPS every time, hiking, skiing, surfing, or even driving. It will be convenience to have one in your bag....
