>>2767272>>2767678>>2767679zero point to these threads if you dont post the name of the location they were taken at
Terrible composition of these photos aside, why are you posting pictures of bridges, houses, graffiti, and radio towers on /out/? boards.4chan.org/p/
>last full moon>left 11pm to go to a hot spring 2hrs away on my adv bike>arrive at 1:00, start 45 min hike lit by nothing but my headlamp and full moon>arrive at hot spring, disrobe, bathe in the moonlight (tfw no werewolf gf)>chill for an hour listening to nothing but the flowing of river and soaking in the heat after a long chilly night hike. Take a dip under the inlet waterfall of really fucking cold water, feels fucking great.>pack up to go leave, snap picture for pleasant memories>hike bike, ride back, get back at dawn>download pic relatedI need a better camera, will do again though in chances ill get lucky for that werewolf gf.

hi anons, some pics of my last hikes in the Chartreuse (France Alps)

>>2767844
>>2767847
I'm in the backcountry while most people on this board are jerking off to anime
>>2767844Beautiful anon! France really has some pretty cool out, too bad about your population density....What camera are you using? I'm assuming that it is a DSLR based on the image quality. I'm asking because I'm in the market for one too and open for suggestions.
>>2767909Thanks ! Yeah when going /out/ it's quite hard to find remote places in France due to the population density. The Chartreuse massif isn't very popular so I don't see many people while hiking. > What camera are you using? I'm assuming that it is a DSLR based on the image quality. I'm asking because I'm in the market for one too and open for suggestions.It's a Canon EOS 60D with the Canon EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6. It's pretty nice but you need some practice to get good pictures (non blurry, with a good balance of light and shadow etc.). For the best results I shoot in raw and edit light & colors.
Ok you need to spend thousands on a heavy fancy camera and lug it everywhere. You can't just take photos with a smartphone.
>>2767822Maybe take better photos and label them instead of bumping your thread with mostly uninteresting semi-urban smartphone photos of an undisclosed location somewhere on the East Coast. Here's Rainier from the PCT.>>2767825Nice photos anon.>>2767844Some phones are better than others but yeah there really is no comparison in most cases.>>2767909A quality mirrorless is competitive with DSLRs these days, easier to carry too, but still lets you use actual photography settings with access to a range of lenses. >>2767975>The more effort you put in the higher quality of result you get outYeah.
>>2767975Dude, the 60D is 13 years old and you can find it for 200$ on eBay.....I recently checked, in my home country you can find one at 120$ second hand. Phones just can't compete with a decades old DSLR camera.
>>2767997Wrong photo, that's Adams, this is Rainier.>>2767998He's just coping. Photography isn't even a hard skill to get into but most people will never try anything besides their pocket rectangle.
>>2767997>quality mirrorless is competitive with DSLRs these days, easier to carry too, but still lets you use actual photography settings with access to a range of lenses.That's fair, however 1kg plus or minus isn't really that relevant to me. The main reason why I'd like to get a DSLR is the fact that they are dirt cheap because the technology is ancient.Again all of your advice is fair, but you just can't beat the piece of an old DSLR with one of those new digitals. Plus lenses for DSLRs have a larger second hand market and their price is also cheaper.
>>2768002Yeah you are right, no argument from me. I primarily use a Fuji mirrorless because its small enough to zip into my hip pouch and I got sick of having my Nikon DSLR hanging off my neck on longer backpacks. I do miss how much cheaper Nikon F-mount lenses are though lol.
>>2767997>Maybe take better photosI wasn't that anon. Maybe you should have included a photo with your criticism >>2767798so people wouldn't confuse you with others who have shit on anons' photos without offering anything themselves. Because we've had a ton of that on this board and it deserves to be called out every time.

>>2768245
>>2768291Florensac, France
>>2767306Correct me if I'm wrong but I'm from NH and I am pretty sure mt. monadnock is one of the most climbed mountains in the world but the town it's in isn't filled in. Has nobody fucking posted from up there? I know for a fact you can get 4 bars of 5g at the summit lol.
I am a cityboy who is recently finding a love for the outdoors, feeling like this is really the truth. I just went to Mt. Tam in California. I want to go to places in the bay area that aren't very populous. Does anyone have any recommendations for places? And also starter guides that this board has made. I don't feel like lurking moar to find this out. ty
>>2768376>Has nobody fucking posted from up there?nobody with extraflags on one of the 4 boards that have flags, which is a small part of the total unfortunately>I know for a fact you can get 4 bars of 5g at the summit lol.it wouldn't do anything, to post a regional flag you have to manually set the flags to the place you are in, and then post in a flagboard (usually /int/, usually in the extraflags general)which is the reason why most of the flags aren't posted during the trip, they are posted from home AFTER the trip is done (pic related)
Was out at Turner Falls in Oklahoma over the weekend testing out my new ALICE rig. No one else was on the trails, everyone was down in the river due to the heat. Frankly I’m glad because it was mostly jeets and spics down there
From last weekI don't particularly enjoy summer hiking for it's too hot but this place is full of small river ponds to swim in and the views are gorgeous
>>2768526(This is in Portugal btw)
>>2768202it's way prettier imo, the amount of people was about the same when i went to both earlier in the season but i bet it has way less people than starved rock now
>>2768554appreciate the tip, this sandstone looks a bit different somehow, maybe I am seeing thingsanyways, I visited some that are supposed to have waterfalls - all dry like completely dry like no pool at all let alone waterfall
>>2768556matthiessen had a couple cool waterfalls and pools, the problem is that 99% of midwestern waterfalls are seasonal. pic rel is the only decent sized pool i saw at starved rock, the sandstone canyons were beautiful and lush though
>>2768561Oh I know but I'm certainly mentally setting aside the best ones for next early spring. We had a good soaking rain here in early May and I got some great waterfall photos out of it. I do love me a good sandstone canyon.
>>2768439nice choice of beer
>>2768399Wow.
nice short hike in boulder around chatauqua during a 15 hour layover, lots of plant life and beautiful weather

>>2769815>WOW look at this view!>It's so beautiful it makes me want to graffiti this rock!These "people" should be pushed off the edge of the cliff.
>>2770062I don't actually mind graffiti at all. Do I wish it were like an actual artistic theme and not just random people's names and slogans? Yes. But it's more that whenever I see a rock like this, I instantly imagine /out/ screeching about the vandalism like the e-Karens they are. Also, would you rather popular trails become permit-only if that would prevent tagging?
>>2770084>I can't believe you KARENS don't want a bunch of painted nigger scrawl shitting up the natural scenery!
>>2770199>trail full of incels>natural scenery
>>2770200>trail full of incelsYeah, that's what throwing you and all the other graffiti fags off the cliff would take care of dumbass.
>>2770201>take care off, dumbassfucking troglodyteI guess you're an american?
>>2770203Since you can't even quote properly I'm guessing you're an esl?
>>2770205>properly, I'm guessing,jesus man. work on this shit.
>>2770206>esl retard who doesn't even capitalize the beginning of a sentence attempts to critique my punctuation because he has nothing elseI accept your concession faggot
>>2770209>concession, faggotoh man...

>>2767722Is this that famous gorge in WV? Never been just an educated guessPretty views anon
>>2767735Blue ridge parkway pov? Looks familiar
>>2767798There is a file size limit you dumb piece of shit lolB8 on /pol/ go be bored some place else instead of bumping supposedly “shit” threads. Contribute or btfo
>>2770232did you climb that very steep hill on yourself? whoa
>>2770232>>2770223Sorry for these boyos im phonefagging>>2770228I wasn’t sure I haven’t seen photos of it in a while. Very comfy views nonetheless. Seems like a great spot for a 1man tent, imagine waking up to that at 6am to the wind blowing, cooming at the thought
Americans are so extremely unbelievably fucking lucky to have forests like this. You do not suffer at all.
one night backpacking :3
Went deep in the mid Sussex woods yesterday. Found an ancient coppiced birch, pretty cool.Wish I'd had a metal detector, chance of some medieval finds I reckon.
>>2770045Pretty damn good chance that was the mountain lion involved in this story:https://ktla.com/news/local-news/mountain-lion-attacks-5-year-old-boy-at-malibu-creek-state-park/I felt like a bitch for running away but now think I made the right call
>>2770220He's right you are way more likely to get engagement if you post where your photos are from, retard.>>2770232File size has nothing to do with composition, how stupid are you? Learn how to frame a photo properly and don't post photos of urban sprawl on /out/.
>>2770223Some of the hills on WV are genuinely spooky looking at 3:30pmI'm sure other places are like this too but I don't get that sense too many placesStill a beautiful looking state
>>2771787>actually caring about attention and engagement>me not including your logic for said things>still getting engagementWho’s the retard again anon?Also do you not understand how file compression works?Post some /out/ already or btfo normie
>>2767272
>>2771928>uploading and posting images on a message board>not caring if anyone actually bothers to look at thempick one dumbass, its not hard to just give a location once in a string of images and it greatly improves the quality of the thread from being just nameless strings of cellphone pictures >Composition in photography refers to the way a photographer arranges the visual elements, including the subject and objects in a photoyou are the retard buddyive posted photos ITT already, but here have the finger of fate, pretend im giving you the finger too
After being on a longer holiday earlier this year and then being knocked out for 2 months during the summer, I decided to pick up hiking here in the Alps too and not just when I'm on vacation in some other country.Last Sunday I went on my first hike, 4h 4m of walking time, nearly 7h of duration incl. stops. It ended up being way longer than I had expected. lolThe description of the hiking trail kinda fooled me.
>>2771974This was some really bitchass part where if I didn't have any trekking poles, I would have had to climb up on all fours.
>>2771975Smol lake I went by.This was my first hike this long and I think I'm going to stick to ones that take 2.5-3.5h from now on.The decent was also quite much with over 800m.I hope the weather is nice on Fri/Sat because I got plans for several more hikes and want to do once a week.
>>2767739Tagging makes me sick. Fuck all of you, especially>jaxson
>>2770084>permit onlyIncredibly based institutional racism. I approve.
Cool mountain through a tree window today.
Nice spot I've camped last weekend at.
>>2772209Were there a lot of insects at night from the water?
>>2772213Had to squish about 10 mosquitos in the evening, but other than that - it was pretty good. Way calmer that during spring/middle of the summer. Only woodpeckers got bit annoying after 2 days of nonstop banging on the trees.
Mt. Washington and Belknap Butte as seen from one of the 212 hwy view spots. Really cool drive heading from East to West during the sunrise through the massive lava fields and rock. Stopped by Lava Lake and trotted around which made me want to go back and explore the area. Forgot an actual camera for the trip so there's only phone pics :(

Snow Lake. a classic
Americans will never know the feel of hiking through baroque landscape.
>>2772751europoos will never know the feel of hiking through a landscape not urbanized to shit
>>2772640>where is it?somehwere in Montana
I was out in Santa Fe National Forest all week.
>>2772751based parents taking their baby out hiking
Isle Royale trip was beast
>>2768439You can still be skilled in outdoors and survival skills, more or less than anyone from anywhere. I've been all over this land, lived on the road. Grand Canyon was gorgeous, Fire Canyon, the sand dunes out West, Redwood National Park, the PNW coasts and forests, just to make a few.
>>2773379Sierra Nevadas are gorgeous, as are the Rockies, and Appalachia that's where I live in the woods.
>>2768439>Does anyone have any recommendations for places?The further north you gto from the GG bridge the fewer people there are...Pt Reyes is awesome - some spots can get crowded but but still lots of places to go. Also- Bay area people are weather pussies so even the slighest inclement weather keeps most people away. Sonoma coast is over lookedMendo coast is killer...and then all the way up the Lost Coastif you are going to Siera avoid Tahoe and go north t places like golden lakes or downyville etc..
>>2772526>>2772527it was a good day
>>2773372Highest re-visitation rate of any NP. Did you take the ferry or fly in?
>>2773675lol why
>>2773946Just guessing, but probably because the only people who go, there are people who really love it and go back all the time. It’s one of the least visited parks as well.
unaka mountain road is open again
there's sorta a trail here kinda just a wilderness social trail, not sure if it actually leads anywhere, but it did seem to go on at least a little further
>>2767272Finally summited this big boy. Legs are stiff the day after but no big blisters or anything so I'm satisfied.
I wish I lived somewhere with elevation. Our woods are still pretty though.
>>2774010Build an elven garden. Qualinesti if you will.
>>2774003>no location or nameWho cares
>>2773949Took the seaplane this time, took the ferry on my first trip there 2 years ago.
>>2767739Bump.
Amazon- border between Peru and Ecuador
>>2772744Looks a lot like Colorado
>>2774134Pretty sure rainier is in wa
>>2774034I play as a druid most of the time. combat wild shape is awesome in low level campaigns. My dm is in the process of lowkey punishjng me for using it to false flag the rest of the party into looking like heroes by fighting off a "bear attack".
>>2773966what do these hairy hills count as? Uplands?
>>2774314ridge and valley crystalline appalachian mountainsthose aren’t the highest hills, but geologically they are “real” mountain ls meaning they were formed from crust folding in overlapping layers
>>2774060Didn't realize you liked me so much sempai. UwU
linville gorge
>>2774077The plane is a lot of fun and adds to the experience of traveling to a remote island lol
>>2774499>no mention of cost differential
>>2774500Seaplane from Houghton/Copper Harbor $360 roundtrip per person - 45 minQueen 4 Ferry from Copper Harbor $160 roundtrip 4.5 hoursRanger 3 from Houghton $160 roundtrip w/ $35 extra if you wish to bring a kayak/canoe - roughly 6 hour tripApparently fares can change at different times during the season so don't take these as solid numbers.
>>2774522forgot to mention the seaplane has a 45lb bag limit per passenger.
>>2774500I'm not going to IR enough for the cost differential to be worth factoring in tbqh. Happy for you if thats your deal
Spent a couple days in the WY/MT backcountry. Fishing for cutties.
Amazon river - near Iquitos, peru
Looks gay
>>2768183A bunker!
Went on a day hike at Mount Saint Helens recently. Started at Hummocks trailhead and hiked up to Johnston Ridge.
>>2777571Continued along the ridgeline and as they morning went on, the clouds started breaking up a little.
>>2777572Then I descended into the pumice plain. The falls - my destination - are in sight.
>>2777573It's amazing how desolate the valley is beneath the volcano even decades later. Old pictures from before the eruption show it covered in dense evergreen forest.
>>2777574I wonder if the falls were created after the eruption or if they've been there for longer...
>>2777576Fun hike!
Stars were pretty tonight.
>>2771974Today I did my 4th hike, was mostly just normal hiking without anything very technical.These are the Swiss Alps. Last week I went on the mountain that is in the center of this picture.
>>2778512Had a view like this for most of it.>>2777576I really love rocky landscapes. It's so alien and mesmerizing. You should go to Iceland if you like those landscapes too. You'll feel like you're on Mars or the Moon.
>>2778476Wow, that's a ton of detail captured!
