As a person who has no family interested in anything remotely outdoorsy who could teach them anything, how the fuck do you get into the hobby?I don't know shit about fishing. I don't know shit about hunting. I want to get into camping but also don't want to do something fucking retarded because I have zero clue what I'm doing.Should I start just by reading? Any books for retards on the subject?Or should I just say fuck it and go /out/ and learn through trial and error?
rei loves people like youbring a full wallet and some bags (they don't have those)buy a tent, buy a bag, buy some shoes, hound the employees with questions, find a developed campground the kind that has showers and nice elevated sites with grills, bring some hot dogs and hamburgers, and go for a walk (the kind of campground attached to a state park or similar so you can hike nearby)
>>2868626>Or should I just say fuck it and go /out/ and learn through trial and error?This, at least for camping. Start off car camping so that if you realise you forgot something important then you can bail.

>>2868634This, start off safe and small. Baby steps, Anon.Make sure you know the laws in your country so you don't get in trouble right off the bat.
>>2868626you cant really fuck up camping that bad unless you get lost but just get a satellite phone for if you do.Camping is literally just>hike somewhere>sleeping bag and tent>make fire >cook some food>fuck aroundyou cant really fuck it up that bad? fishing and hunting you can learn about later but getting out there especially coming into summer is ez
