The East Coast/West Coast debate is pure larp. If you live in any state other than Alaska you are not really /out/, you are just a recreational weekender.
>>2880418Unless you live off grid without electricity you're just a LARPer
>>2880418I am moving there soon. 10/1.
>>2880418>>2880422technically all outdoor recreation is some form of "Live Action Role Play".>inb4: Nooooo! Im a reel wild outdoor man! just like in the processed mass media I consoom!
>>2880424Semantics
Fair weather hikers who dont live there will glaze alaska because its 'TRU wilderness!!' ignoring that its a sunless purgatory half the year, is cloudy most the time there is sun, rains often, is mosquito hell in the nicest part of the year, and is pretty inaccessable even if you live there unless you have money for air travel
>>2880444Meh. It is true that there is a lot of Alaska that is inaccessible without a flight, but Alaska is a big place and there is also a lot of stuff that is reasonably accessible from a road if you aren't fat and capable of hiking (or in the winter, skiing) a number of miles.
>>2880418I have my favourite places and biomes but the wonderful thing about being outdoors is that over time, the beauty of the world opens up to you and you can touch the sublime almost anywhere.
