I think the Cracow-Częstochowa Uplands in Poland are a bit underrated outing place
Tak
>>2854582>highest elevantion 480mboring, no thankshow are the carpathians, have you been there?
>>2854908I go to Carpathians or Sudetes every year which is less often than to Cracow-Częstochowa Uplands cause the Uplands are just 30 minutes of driving away from me while the closest part of Carpathians is over 2 hours away. I would say that if you want a challenging hike, every part of Carpathians will be better than the Uplands but only Tatra Mountains which are the highest part of Carpathians is really challenging. In terms of views only Tatra is better than the Uplands because the Uplands have lots of cool rocks and castles. Same with rock climbing, most of Carpathians aren't very rocky and Tatra is the only part of it that rock climbers love more than the Uplands. A small con of rock climbing in Tatra is that you need a climb registration in a shelter so they know where to find you if something goes wrong. Generally speaking Tatra is by far the coolest range in Poland but also the most crowded and nearby hotels are expensive.There are also Sudetes but I don't wanna pretend to be a sudete expert cause I've never been to Śnieżnik Massif or Rudawy Janowickie which seem pretty cool but I've been to some parts of Sudetes and Table Mountains are likely the most beautiful mountains in Poland other than Tatra cause they have cooler rock formations than the Uplands.Pic is photos I made in Carpathians this year. The top one is from Gorce Mountains (you can see Tatra far away) and the bottom one is from Tatra Mountains.
>>2854924thanks. i asked because i've been thinking of doing a trip to some of the cheaper, less crowded mountain ranges in europe (comparing to the alps), and the Tatra mountains looked really good. but the other options is the pyrenees which i think are just better, and they are much closer to me and there's still so much i would like to do there that it's hard to justify crossing half of europe by planeor those uplands, i'm sure i would have a great time there but again, doesn't make sense to go having many other options closer to me
>>2854925I've heard the Pirenees are like Tatra but bigger, better and more expensive. Also, if you don't like crowds, Slovakian Tatra would be better. Unfortunately climbing the highest peaks in Slovakian Tatra either requires a guide or a rock climbing loicence, both of which cost quite a lot. Personally I'm planning to go to Austria cause it has higher mountains than Poland and (hopefully) isn't as expensive as Switzerland.
It is established that isolation while /out/ leads to particular hallucinations like hearing your own name and the best thing to do is to ignore it. Do not acknowledge. I wonder if this is related to all the native cultures that say exactly the same thing about hearing your own name. Have any of you experienced this or had hallucinations?

>>2854011Try to place the heaviest things such as water against your upper back and things like sleeping bag in the lowest portion of the bag.
Can I get some tips for my next outting? I'm fairly intermediate when it comes to bushcraft and survival, I've lived on the road and in the wilderness for five years but I'm in a period where I have a stipend and education affording me a place to live. I can a get job after this but if I do it'll be remote, down the road is where I belong as a person and it's the only place I've found with happiness and wonder still in life. This time I want to be well equipped without also being an easy target to get robbed with a bunch of expensive ultralight gear. I've got a 65 liter Martingtop, it's very nice besides feeling a little cramped, but it's also unassuming. I want to bring a tarp but I'm unsure if I should get a 10x10 or a 10x13, my goal is to have a little space around my 1 person tent or hammock that I can comfortably cook or sit out of the rain. I have a 13x13 right now that I was going to use if I get a vehicle, but it's easily too big for me to fit along with my clothing. I usually travel for years at a time out on the road, but somehow I still don't have a good idea of what I want or need when it comes to equipment and gear. I don't mind heavier loads full of extra shit if it means more comfort on the road, I walked without a break from Crescent City CA to Santa Rosa carrying a 45~ lb backpack with a broken waist strap and it really wasn't too bad. Maybe I'd rather go light weight though, and have just a light sleeping bag and a tarp and a bug net hammock. Does anyone have experience with both? My main enemies on the road so far have been bugs, rain, and humidity, so I'm mostly focused on preparing against those. Also this is a comfort thing for me, but I really hate shit being attached to the outside of my pack and prefer it all to pack in easily and be safe in the liner. Is this me being a retard, should I be maximizing the outside of my pack space as well?
>>2853344Anyone recommend a good back pack for fishing-camping combo? Don't necessarily need a pole holder just something where I can make adjustments to attach a pole to the side and room for two 6inch bait boxes. Looking for something that won't break the budget.Anyone have experience with this?

>>2842649Best I’ve seen was a guy 5hrs into the mountains wait a wheelbarrow and several 24 packs of beer. Whe had it chilling in the hut water tank, wher he was having a swim. Pretty hilarious, glad there was a stream to get water from nearby. And he shared a bunch with us, so happy days. The next people would face drank that water in oiled, yuck.

I fucking hate them to my core. They often buy up land, then totally ban access to the public, even in places where public access was previously legal, with zero explanation about why, while bragging and showing off videos of the beautiful overlooks they would love to arrest you for trespassing to get to on their website. If they DO allow access, there's never any signage, adequate parking, let alone improved trails. They truly do not give a fuck and I imagine them as hateful boomers who pat themselves on the back "oh the land is protected now!" as they ban access. It might as well be private land. It has all been logged already.
>>2854295>which lady?the lady who answered the phone at the State park. The structure is unsafe she said.
>>2854370anon the area is closed to the public, trail building isn't the issue
>>2851127
>>2854427I guess at some point they are just gonna have robot police and drones roaming around and trespassing will be truly enforced. Shame people are so unwilling to share and instead revel in "owning" land which really just means getting to bully and be violent with others who go there.
>>2853895Someone with no money or prospects for buying their own land shat you out for probably no other reason than a desire for attention or because of an accident and millions of other people in their generation did the same thing so now the rest of us have to worry about whether or not you have a house and a job and a woman to shit out your progeny or you’ll cause trouble, especially if you don’t have a place to satisfy your caveman desire to see what’s coming to eat you.
I call it the Ventilation Improved Triple Pit (VITP).Two poop pits of the same depth and width as close as possible with a third low pit that becomes a downhill trench. The third pit is for urine the principle is a downhill dug trench with gravel at the bottom and dirt on top until it reaches back to the opening of the pit which is exposed gravel. You pee on the gravel it travels downhill through the gravel and you may plant things on top of the dirt which will drink the urine.This separation of urine from poop means the poop can compost and remain as dry as possible giving it the highest volume reduction possible and lowest smell. One poop pit is used for a year and then it is allowed to rest and users switch to the other pit. For every 1/4th the pit is filled you must throw in a shovel of worm rich topsoil. The poop pit being used will each week have dry crushed leaves and wood ash of aboht the same quantity tossed in. High carbon, low moisture and the final piece of the puzzle is aeration. A pipe must be installed from the two poop pits out above the roof or sitting area, and it must have a mesh or fly stop on it. This airflow allows the highest level of composting. I advise connecting the two poop pits together via this air pipe with a three piece pipe connector and only one air pipe coming out. In your local environment you should have mint or peppermint plants. These usually contain menthol which is an insect deterrent. Do not throw directly in the pit, plant them around the toilet and crush leaves up, or create an decoction and spread around the area weekly. If this is done correctly not only will it not stink but you can realistically with a permanent group never have to get in and shovel raw shit.
>>2854248Not the same thing. The roots can grow away.
>>2854310and the biggest toilet in India is the Ganges river.
>mom found the poop pits
>>2853519I just poop in the river it makes washing my butt easy.
>>2854788No.

>>2852197I've been watching a shit ton of Homestead Rescue. Its a boomer guys version of a youtube channel. Basically its kitchen nightmares but with acreages and homesteads. There was a black family whose entire property was always wet and never drained and then the Raneys showed up and turned off the hose that was leaking for a decade. Good shit.
Anyone here with experience in the Chugach or Talkeetna? I'm steadily building experience and starting to get into very sketchy stuff. Pic related required constant switching between crampons and skis due to snow conditions. Did Bashful alone in August and that was wild. How bad of an idea is it to get on the larger glaciers alone? Very, I imagine ?
>>2854471I live right in the Chugach. With how unpredictable the weather can be up here and how isolated it is, I wouldn't recommend exploring glaciers alone. At the very least, have a GPS communicator like an inreach mini so you can ping your location to your mom or whatever if you fall down a crevasse. There's also lots of avalanches up here. Haven't had a ton of snow lately and it's been pretty dry so what snowpack there is is gonna mostly be ice or sugar snow which I'm sure you know is tricky to navigate. Bring a fren, anon. Don't be suicidal.

>>2853754unless you spook a bear majority of the time they want nothing to do with you. Bears do not actively hunt humans. It's only in cases where bears are starving or have been accustomed to humans to lose their fear of them that they would. That's why you're not supposed to feed wild animals in general.

>tfw you'll never be able to follow che's travels since the darien gap will always screw travel potential across american continentsIts not fair bros. Europeans can head all the way down through to africa with minimal effort. If the issue of cartel violence and corruption wasn't such rampant problem, traversing the americas would be one of the greatest and accessible trips in the world.
People boat their shit across the gap every day, doesn't stop people from doing the voyage. Aren't you happy there are still untraversable places in the world? Or do zoomers lay claim to every square inchI just spent a couple weeks motorbiking through central America, bike cost me $15/day; shit was great.

>>2853203This. Many have paddled it. You simply stick to the shoreline and get ashore to camp every night.>>2854572It's a very common phenomenon. If elements in history that for all I know are nothing but pure chance were just slightly different you might aswell have them root for Hitler. This can also be seen by the fact that often some groups are convinced would've been the designated enemy of some historical person when there is no indication of it being the case af allI mean who knows maybe you can print a load of tshirts with a stylized and artsy Franco / Hitler / Tito portrait and popularize it in India. "Yeah he was like the good guy you know..."
Blankets that are nice and cozy and come with a compression bag or can compress nicely? What do you guys use?
>>2854320I've recently seen used, some NOS condition, for sale. Not even expensive. I am no expert on the matter but I dont think the seller tries to deceive people. Do you have a particular need that necessitates the poncho liners to be reproduction? Or are the old ones known to be rotten out by now?I find often, with such old items, authentic repros might be impossible or prohibitively expensive in todays market, as often manufacturing of even the precursor materials has advanced and improved and as such new processes may have completely replaced older processes.Like the fill. If you look at synthetic fill technology, it is not the same as yesteryear and some of that might have trickled down even to the most basic plushy fill because of economy of scale.
>>2854326>>2854326Anyways>picrel is from one of the offers I saw. The vendor asks 35 units and claims they are like new and original. Varying mfgs. Customers who have left reviews confirmed that theirs has no trace of use.Also surplus used to be a thing because when they make changes things have to go and as a result they are cheap. Reproductions sort of defeat the point, you're starting from a position where you have to make something for the money. Not where something does not serve it's original purpose anymore and must go. So you'll pay more or get less than with surplus. At which point you might just get something that serves the need but has good quality.
>>2854326>>2854328Thank you for the tips!I'm mainly looking for repros because right now its PITA to get stuff delivered from USA in reasonable time and money.
>>2854334>from USAsellers I've looked at and mentioned are germanistaniis the woobie really as good as people claim?I mean I assume it to be a technologically inferior climashield apex sandwiched between two layers of ripstop? Only that DYI this route would be more than the original or repro.
>>2851410Northface has a blanket that comes in a compression bag, also has a hole and hoodie style pocket so you can wear it like a poncho. Lost mine but was super nice.
