What does /out/ take with them for back support after a long day?
Looking at the Chammok. Seems lighter than camp chair.

Does it actually give good back support?
How easy is it to nap in one?

Since I was young I always wanted to go camping. I wanted to do like straight up in a forest clearing or lake shore or something of the sort, no campsite hook ups or anything of the sort. In other words I wanted back country camping.
I'm currently building an 8ft camper trailer which I plan on taking on cross country trips, hitting national parks and historical landmarks all along the way. Being that I live on the east coast I plan on doing many important US history spots, things like the Liberty Bell, White House, etc.
I've read that you can camp almost anywhere on national park or BLM land as long as you're 200+ feet away from any water source. How difficult would it be to find viable and hopefully scenic back country camping spots? Will there be separate exits on the highway for people trying to just get into the thick of the wilds of the park or will I have to find a trail or something of some sort that'll take me from the developed park area to the back country areas?
I'm definitely trying to avoid getting lost in the wilderness doing anything illegal. I appreciate all the help.

tl;dr I'm in search of backwoods camping spots that can be driven directly up to since I'll be using a 4x8 camper trailer I built.
Or, tips on how to find these as I'm travelling cross country.

Pick one. Sounds like you actually want unpowered car camping sites, not backwoods camping.

I take it the pictures like pic related I've seen of people camping with their cars in what seems to be wilderness would be something off of an offroading trail or a well angled camp site scenery picture?

Okay, so looking at these jackets and I'm curious as to why they mostly are duck down, from what I've seen only the snow mantra is actually goose down, they also seem like low fill power since they are around 650.
What's the reasoning behind this?
Secondly, if I was to buy a canada goose jacket, would I just be sweating constantly in England, since it really doesn't get that cold here?
Not going to lie, I really want the snow mantra.

I want to camp and climb in the Appalachian mountains. How hard is it to find a place where I'll be alone enough to camp, shoot, climb, make campfires, whatever.

You can only do those activities in designated areas. You'll need to google them in the area you want to go.

We need to know what state your in, unless your a visitor to the Appalachian and want to know what state is is good.
I can only say that there is a designated trail by the Delaware water gap in NJ that I've been to.

Has anyone here ever done a summer treeplanting?
I live in Ontario, and i've heard from some long time locals that its a great summer job. Lots of hard work, rough times, and crazy parties.
But i've also heard that you often get gypped when it comes to payments. They pay you per tree, but they can assign you areas like pic related or worse where it takes hours just to clear the land.
Any canadafags with experience to help me out?

We used to have a planter on here. Have a bump.

I've been trying to get some friends together to have a crack at planting in Canada for a while but have recently accepted that I'm probably gonna have to go by myself if its actually ever gonna happen.
are there a number of organisations I could go with to organise such a thing or is there one in particular that people here with experience would recommend?

I'm envious of them, but I certainly don't hate them. I admire they go out there and enjoy the world.
Why do you hate them?

Because always they come from the cities, and i hate city people. And because they are no true /out/ist they just jog.

we get bucketloads of acorns and bring them to the farm for their piggies. what the hell can i do with them myself? i've read it takes week to soak all the tannins out of them before they're edible for anything
>>
>>916659
Oh I dont eat them either. You could make a paste like flour out of them. Deer like them too along with pigs. But keep them away from cattle! No I boil or dry mine to use for the tannin itself.
>>
They have too many tannins to eat normally or kidney failure will occur. You can leech the tannins out over a few days using water with the acorn flour. Change the water often. I'm sure there are online guides about it by now.

It's a wolf hybrid. Put it down.

So it's obviously not a well established breed. It's a mutt. Not sure why you're so interested in figuring it out? Pretty cool looking dog, but unless you're trying to breed more dogs like him I'm not sure why you care.

Hey /out/, what's the best nutrition for value food that I could take outdoors?
This can include snacks from shops, meats, organic foods, bread, fruits, etc.
I'll have access to a stove, barbecue, an esky and have a decent sized storage space (say, the size of a car).

Around here, foraging and hunting has the best weight/nutrition value.

What? Really? Is this board for people who are completely off grid or something?
I assumed it was people who liked to go on camping trips and stuff, but still had some contact with society

Yeah pretty much sums it. I'm not depressed or any shit like that but after watching a movie where Olivia Wild has a quote about the meaning of life I'm feeling nostalgic and rather complacent about it.
And since I'm /in/ what's better to do other than shitpost about it with fellow sc/out/s.

Need a knife for general hiking and small brush clearing. Was thinking Gerber Strongarm right now cause it doesn't rust easy and I need it for when it snows. Any recommendations/reviews.

Also OP, that Gerber Strongarm knife looks pretty solid. I like it because it's just a simple, solid blade without bells & whistles, tacticuul add-ons, or gimmicky bullschidt. I would honestly like one myself.

Save weight by leaving you're sharpener at home!
Kill two birds with one stone by sharpening the blade while starting fires!
