Are you going? Part of a camp or not? How should somebody prepare?
>>2880919>>2880920>>2880921I was calling out the larper for thinking that acid would be harder to handle than shrooms, particularly somewhere like BM, when in fact the opposite is true, indicating they have little to no experience actually taking psychedelics

anyone else here who can't sleep outdoors? I've been staying in a tent on 5 different nights during hikes, and not a single one of these nights could I get any sleep.It's weird because there was a sixth night I was in a tent, way back in 2021, when I did get some sleep. not during the night, mind you, because I was new and underprepared and was shivering from cold during the whole night. but when the sun came up and the temperature increased, I was able to sleep 2 hours in the morning. and in 2022 I tried sleeping in a Haven tent (lie-flat hammock, pic related), and in this I slept great the entire night.I've tried varying the amount of air in the matress, from fully inflated to somewhat soft, but this had no effect on my sleep. would be nice to hear if anyone else have dealt with the same and found a solution.
>>2881882>that shitty newfaggot screencapyeah, you need to go back
>>2882059cope harder
Same. The reason why I don't go out much is because I never get a restful sleep out there by myself. That hammock thing also has happened to me a bunch. You're going to realize those are shitty ultralite memes for people who do not value their personal security or comfort in the night. Get a tent, get one that's big enough to give you some buffer from whatever decides to nuzzle your tent in the night. You'll thank me.When I talked to out they said you should get drunk so you would sleep. I think today I would just use a big dose of glycine. To feel reassured you need a group of two other woods buddies for your days in the bush as well
>>2882087A big tent wont provide any safety
>>2882061>>2882060lol look at this malding same fagging. why does spacing trigger you so much ? dont like spaces in your safespace ?

Can still be fun, though I'd enjoy it immensely more if people could live without having spotify play 24/7.My favorite part of taking people hiking is how they slowly begin to accept silence. First day they can't stop talking, second it'll start to become a little inconsistent with occasional breaks, and by day 3 you reach that perfect mode where you walk alongside each other in silence because everything that needs to be said has been said. Nothing is being said and yet it's the closest form of communication you can have with someone.
I live in a commie shithole and wamt to go to the few natural areas left. However, since hunting bears or lynxes is prohibited, the areas are full of them. And because or retarded laws, i cannot own any weapon capable of launching a projectile with enough force to actually penetrate a target. Are there any ways i can be surely protected from getting mauled, or any gadgets i can make to defend myself? Anybody here had a bear or other large predator encounter without ranged weapons?
In my own former commie shithole we only have brown bears. I carry a spray, but what do I do if I'm sleeping and they mistake me for a doner kebap in a tent
>>2881626Spray them when they rip a hole in your tent. You'll get sprayed as well, but it's better than being mauled to death while screaming like a faggot

How dangerous is solo backpacking? I live close to Appalachia and any time I talk to someone about going on a solo trip people talk schitzo-tier about how I'm going to die, disappear, or worse.Not even because of the nature specifically, but because of le paranormal, inbred mountain people, cannibals, accidentally stumbling upon illegal operations in the mountains (heard this one specifically a lot), etc. You get it, the list goes on.Anyways, is there any truth to the danger or is it just the average small-town tall tales and superstitions? Seems unlikely to me as I feel like if it was so dangerous you'd be seeing a lot more of it in the news.
>>2872583I did about 500 miles of the AT. The biggest issue was mice. Or being in a town after dark without a hotel room, the resident homeless people can be an issue.
>>2873491>jerk off your massas dick till massas nuttin
planning on going solo hiking in europe at the end of october for a few days. plan is to cross a 2300m peak. how dangerous is it? any tips? what's your experience solo hiking? i usually prefer the company of others but that's not possible this time. i tend to overthink a lot when i am alone, that's part of the problem. also i assume that depending on the weather i could run into serious trouble at this time of the year

Does anybody have any experience or stories to tell about winter camping
>>2880973Would you say that mid autumn camping would be better for that quote unquote cold comfy camping experience thenIt would be nice being cozy under a jacket at night by fire keeping me warm with a cold occasional breeze and maybe some food sizzling alongside a warm drinkMy original plan was maybe late December early January but if that's too cold it's too cold just let me know
>>2880973idk mine is plenty warm under the comfort rating but you probably don’t want to push too far into the extreme. season appropriate clothes help too. mine also cost under 40 euroshekels so you don’t even have to get the super expensive frauds
>>2880914This guy on youtube winter camps in siberia regularly. hes the only guy ive seen who winter camps for real. he has hundreds of vids you can peruse if bored.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XpemyxnZJr4&list=PLdhAIcANEZ4CcuzWr2YBM7o1DnK_ww1_a&index=91
>>2880914Cold and wet. Still had fun hanging under a leaky tarp drinking beers and eating canned ravioli with the boys though. We had to occasionally push the accumulating sleet off of the tarp or it would sag too much. I don't think I would do it again necessarily, but I'm glad to have done it.
>>2880914Have enough layers. Hand warmers and foot warmers help. My feet get cold in the sleeping bag so I sometimes double up socks or stuff a jacket down in the foot box.
How is your experience with night hiking, anons? There's a big forest reserve in the middle of town and I want to lose track of time and walk around in it at night. It might be the difference of only a few people I'd otherwise meet but I want the peace of knowing I'm alone. There are some coyotes apparently but no bears or montain lions probably. I bought a bear horn and a stick just to be careful. Anyway I feel like I could walk forever in this sort of environment and I'd get a lot of exercise
>>2875021>teehee I'm so zesty a real man will rape me
>>2874700Seems unwise, you'll need a flashlight so you don't walk into orb weaver webs but if it's a city park full of schizos and crackheads you don't want to be seen.
>>2880569I did nightly hikes around north bend for a couple weeks, can confirm I was shitting myself. Started bringing a gun then just stopped. Not so bad to be the first person on the trail just before dawn though.
>>2874700Anon, my friend died this way.He went off trail. No big deal, but he was exploring the high north country. He didn't have much experience at that latitude.I think he got turned around and realized his GPS had no signal out there. Again- usually no big deal. He tried to make his way back from memory.If he had just stayed put, he would have been fine. Night falls early in the high latitudes. He panicked. He had no flashlight. Even in Autumn, it got freezing out there when the sun went down, so he tried to hike out in the dark.All of these factors compounded. He lost his footing. He fell down an embankment and broke his leg. He couldn't climb out due to the injury.It took them a week to find him, and by that point he had died of exposure and dehydration.If he had brought a flashlight. If he hadn't tried hiking out at night. If he hadn't gone off the trail... all of these things run through my mind.Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
>>2874700I once stumbled upon a sleeping deer while out in the woods. It was the most terrifying experience of my life.
I wanted to start biking trails and being more active. What sort of bike should I be looking at? I live in a rural area and own a car so I won't ride in the city too much. Googling suggests gravel bikes, is that a good option? I'm pretty handy so I can do maintenance myself and even upgrade parts. Is there something that has a good frame + decent parts that I could upgrade down the line into a great bike? I'm willing to spend a bit for something good quality but I'm not looking for a $10k bike. Sorry if this isn't the right board for this question
>>2879424grannygear,,,ready togo.,,,lightswater patch kitwin.
>>2872904Fuck you and all the homosexuals promoting 11+ tooth cassettes, niggershit aids for retarded babbies who can't shift, they are wide as fuck, mess with the chain in lowest/highest gears from putting too much diagonal strain when. If someone's planning on doing hills steep at 1mph with a lot of torque you want a 2x8 or 3x7 (they_dont_make_them_anymore.jpg)Learn to shift and stop using inferior designs
>>2872420>I'm pretty handy so I can do maintenance myself and even upgrade parts.oh you will learn. specialty tools (wich you need for pretty much anything) are very expensive and "being handy" wont get you far lol. fuck gravel bikes btw they are the biggest meme of the decade. either get a roadbike, or a mountainbike..
>>2872420man get /n/ pilled and take the classic mtb meme. Cycling is totally rotten with min-maxing reddity consoomerbros, I say that as someone who is pretty picky and spends too much on bikes. There was a golden era for all-around woodsy bikes in the 80's/90's and you can read up and score some pretty good shit for way less than a mediocre-tier new thing would be so fuck it. People will always come out of the woodwork to say they're trash but that is the exact same shit as saying you can't possibly go camp with your dad's jansport frame pack from the 90's, or that they never figured out how to make good skis until (5-10 years before current year,) whatever. Same thing, maybe later you decide you prefer the new stuff and spend some money, but the old stuff is good man.
>I wanted to start biking trails Mountain bike. Dual suspension. Do not listen to the hardtail memes unless you already have no feeling in your ass.>and being more activeDon't get an e-bike. I've burned 1200+ calories in around 1.5hrs of mountain biking.>I'm not looking for a $10k bikeDon't get an e-bike. Try to spring for a carbon frame but if you can't an alloy is fine, you'll probably get more ripped anyway.
Would you still hunt or fish if animals could talk?
>>2882024Because it requires luck, skill, knowledge, and a shit ton of time and effort to get good.
>>2867888Only eggplant and onions. Those saucy little bastards are too good to give up
I have never hunted before but kind of want to, what does it take to get into it?
>>2882128A course you can do mostly on line in a day or two, a license you can buy online, maybe a tag or permit depending on game you’re after, a gun/bow, and maybe an orange vest or camo coat.
>>2867887I always assume fish can understand me so I always make sure to tell them sorry for the trouble if I'm releasing them, or thank them for their sacrifice if I'm bonking them for dinner

Any hunters have stories/sightings of chronic wasting disease? The concept of prion diseases seems like nature cheating imo
>>2881083I’m just surprised that they last as long as they do without getting caught by predators
>>2881083all the deer in colorado have CWD and all the vaxxies have prion disease aka VAIDS. they both look very sickly
I've worked as a cwd tech and in Texas at least it's all in high fence super dense poorly managed properties. I think there's something to do with elevation rises in northern states which cause the disease to spread more quickly but I have not worked as cwd tech out there. I'll let you guys know if I find out anything more.
>>2881306Fwiu, we dont have a fucking clue how they're formed or how to cure it. Its almost like a glitch in the matrix on the cellular level.
>>2881703You can see the fear in their eyes and body language when they see people. They get tense, their head moves around. This deer just did not give a fuck.
An extremely basic question, but an important one. There are many ways to go /out/ - how do YOU do it? Do you drive to your nearest state park/reserve and walk the trails with others? Do you prefer to be alone, instead venturing into your backyard or local forest to hike and or camp? Do you venture to the local park and trudge through through the bush since walking a pre-created "trail" does not count as true /out/doorsing? Sitting on 4chan and posting on /out/ does not, unfortunately, qualify with the topic of this thread. Unless of course you are doing it outside. That counts I guess.
>>2881149just look on alltrails for shit thats nearby and looks goodthen u go and park and then walkif youre extra retarded u can even use the map thats provided in the appyou have to just make yourself do something if youre being a lame ass pussy and not going outsidepick something that sucks. it doesnt matter really, only that you do in fact pick something instead of just pretend-planning
i luckily live on about 6 acres of woodlands that I share with 4 other properties that never use it so I can just walk out to my backyard and have awesome woods and further in a sizeable pond, beyond that I usually drive anywhere between 20 minutes to 3 hours for various woods, waterfalls, rivers, lakes, I used to live near more arid areas so I had a bigger variety then but now its pretty much just appalachia (used to be an oregonian)
I've got a free bus pass that lets me go anywhere in Scotland. I go wherever I feel and just wander about often for a week or more. We have right to roam and wild camping so I'll stay out as long as I feel comfy.
>>2882113Do you play bagpipes?
>>2882117No.

>>2879659Sometimes they need a little help. Foot and leg problems are often vitamin deficiency.
>>2881434About two years ago right around now I woke up and saw a momma duck and about 20 ducklings in the side yard. About 12 hours later the Mexican lady that rented next door comes knocking because “I found this duck and I know you have chickens anon.” I had zero experience with ducks and asked on here and was able to raise him up despite pretty much everything and everyone telling me he was going to die. I planned to release him into the wild but he was too acclimated to people and doesn’t know how to properly duck because he thinks he’s a chicken.Rudy is the man and he’s hilarious to watch.Here’s the picture I took of the momma and ducklings not knowing one would end up with my chickens.
>>2881444You still have them?If you do then it's good to make a small pond or even use a small pool for kids,they will love the water.
>>2881446Yep. I’ve got a “pond” for him but it’s just a buried 100 gallon stock tank. House is paid off looking for property in the country but you know… nothing’s cheap or easy.
>>2881433Do they have trees to roost in? What is your setup like?I just put my 9 week old Icelandics out in an Aspen Grove. The trees are tall and they can fly up really high, but with the trees losing their leaves I'm worried some owls might get them.
