well Will Mac is a pilot, glider off Timerwolf Mountain?

I live in a small town of about 2000 and there is a mom and pop shop for sporting goods. Or a general store. Not asking for a Canadian Tire.

With the last dev notes hinting Blackrock my mind is racing. So much opportunity for adventure/loot/moral decision making.

 Here's what I have thought of:

Prison shivs/improvised knives

Prison toilet wine/water from toilets/hidden things in tanks

library for non-gun knowledge

prison food/nutriloaf

prison cafeteria for canned food

batons/night sticks 

riot shields: awkward but a bear can not scratch or bite through Lexan

gun locker

barbed wire implements?

Moral choice: Find hungry prisoner. Let him out, feed him/her, shoot them, or let them rot?

Hand operated sewing machines, pre-electric hand crank sewing machines

prison clothing

confiscation room full of contraband

tool shop

most of the trees at Old Spence Homestead look like Maple transplants.

There is maple syrup but what about frozen maple tree sap where you can get hydration and calories.

mmmmmm....maple sugar cookies.

or use it to bait bunnies to snares?

It is a weak oxidizer per https://www.arkema.com/export/shared/.content/media/downloads/socialresponsability/safety-summuries/Hydrogen-Peroxide-Hydrogen-Peroxide-GPS-2013-07-15-V0.pdf

Oh hell, no!

peroxide is so heavy and only has one use. Does anyone have any use for it other than cleaning wounds and/or cleaning?

I have never seen sporting good shops, (focused on hunting and fishing), in my trips to Ontario and Quebec, but so many ideas for goods; bear bells, bear spray, snacks, etc

Beavers, beaver dams?

I trust people more than machines. Sorry.

Is there a mod where ALL the surprise caches are active in survival mode? 

I'm having trouble with touchpads and gun shooting. I aim with the right button but can't shoot with the left. I know it's a design flaw with touchpads but is there a work around?

Ever just walk around your house and realize that it would make a great looting location in TDL? Why not a contest where you can film your house to put it in the next region of TDL? please note, I live in a double wide in the woods but Will Mack. would love this. Just from where I am sitting, lighter, lighter fluid, scrap and cloth as far as the eye can see, snack foods, tea, soda, FOOD!, bottled water, cooking pots, ETC. 

Would this work or would it be a legal problem?

That's a great idea leading up to a Long Dark 2. You find a steamboat and go to the mainland only to find the mainland is FUBARed too. 

In the early editions of TDL there was Fluffy. Fluffy was the hydro dam wolf who once in a while spawned and had the sole purpose of jump scaring and killing Wil Mack. I'm proposing an idea for a tribute where in story mode Mack sees a wolf in a high up cave suckling pups near the dam. You can't attack her and she can't get you. You can, if you want, leave her a piece of raw meat. 

Just a fun tribute to the beginnings of the game.

I like all but the last one. As a Canadian, it wouldn't feel right to rip up a flag for something so... superficial. Just my opinion, though.

I'm an American so you can blame that. LOL. How about Roughriders jersey? They are everywhere.

trailmix, cereal, liquid caffeine LOL

Having served in a mandatory military service, I couldn't agree more. While it's not entirely game breaking since the player can choose to unload before cleaning, the concept of cleaning a loaded gun is just wrong.

My knowledge comes from being an American redneck. The Long Dark was my childhood. LOL

I'm an American who studies Canadian history, sports, ETC and I would love two things:

a 1970's era hockey jersey. Heavy, hot, durable, and tearproof. Long sleeved and a wolf will tear off your arm before tearing this.

A Terry Fox 'Marathon for Life' T-shirt. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terry_Fox Terry Fox is a badass. This is one point of Canadian History that should be memorialized.

Also manufacturing special clothing from the Canadian flags all over the map?

Cleaning a gun loaded is very dangerous and I wish there was a game mechanic that automatically unloads before cleaning.

I wish you could turn a large bunch of tinder into a firelog.

I would say no to the lighter, yes, you can a makeshift flamethrower with the spray can but that is HIGHLY UNSAFE. Also, would be a use for excess lighterfluid.

They can come in .5 L size or a 1 L size. .5 would be travel mug size.
