Yep they do like that natural stuff. A few years back, when I was hunting in Montana, down near, a boat landing, and pic nic area, there was a small hunting area, and they had cut a few small trees down, to clear an area, and I just laid down in between the trees, and watched the woods, and trails. I had about six does, and a couple of little spikes, walk right by me at about six to seven feet! :o And......the pak boots, I was wearing, I had previously tried to clean some mildew from them, and used a disinfectant, and soap, and the disinfectant stunk, and would not dissipate. I left them in the sun, and washed them again, and they still smelled like disinfectant. Didn't bother those deer in the least. Could've been they were used to chemical smells, at the boat landing.

Not at all. Even watched part of the Auburn-Alabama game on a cell phone till the batteries went dead. I just set up and built two for the prevailing winds. I also had a stand in a pine tree, 8' off the ground if the wind shifted out of the SE. I had a bear, stand on it's hind legs and sniff the bottom of my stand with my toes about 12" away from it's nose. I had the Set trigger ready to pull and pointed about 36" from it's forehead. It finally smelled people and took off running. I was glad, I'd of gone to jail or been feeding something to a gator if I'd shot it.

Spread a thickish gravel under the fire place, put a light layer of sand over it and then build the fire over it, put some good sized rocks on the opposite side from where you will sleep and you can hold heat all night. My 18' Tipi will hold heat for several days that way.

My holiday Inn holds heat too...... ;D ::)
