Its called a Mortal and pedestal.

Grist mills, etc.
I can take you to lots of low water dams that used water power for making flour, and they aren't that far away.

Native Americans use them to make flour. Not a lot of volume, but it does the job.

Actually it's a mortar and pestle, but I knew what you meant

I don't have one, but that's what have been used in the past. My auto correct on my phone was the culprit!

Can I traverse across the country visiting my previously stashed cashes, and eat with you?

we always used a coke can stove when we backpack the back country, but during those really cold times it can be hard to start/maintain. Switched over to an aluminum beer bottle stove for the thicker metal, worked well in the cold. Bean can stove is a good wood stove too. Uber-cheap to make, super effective. We use single serving service canteens for pots

Its been awhile, but there was a thing going around about polishing the bottom of a soda can with chocolate (?) and cook a hot dog on it.

I passed on a field test.

It's been around for awhile, but there is a book that was written by a lady that cooked over an open fire with paper sacks. She made an appearance on one of the late night shows. Boiled water, made soups, etc.
never forgot it.

Edit: just googled cooking in a paper bag. Lots of info out there.

He's one of my favorite YouTubers. Always laid back and gives good information without being political.

Absolutely! Bring ammo and cammo, I have friends to provide the vegtables. I guarantee our group is self sustaining.
