Join your local extention and help remove invasive plants/ fundraise instead of posting memes about a bunch of mouthwash drinkers.

>>883135
I already do that. I want to do way more. But to do what I want requires a lot of money I don't have. And I'm not feeling optimistic about securing donations, given how anti-nature America is.

It's an aspen. You can tell that it's an aspen because of the way it is.

>>882911
Ash tree?

Just do what a normal woodsman would do; call upon the strength of your spirit animal, kill the strongest beast of the forest and take from him his eyes to replace your inferior pair.

I just wear my glasses... if I'm fishing or near water or mountaineering I tie a piece of string to each arm so if they slide down my nose they don't fall off. Ditto for my prescription sunglasses.

>>881937
Thanks, I'll try that and let you know how it goes.

>>881942
Yeah I mean I figured that's what most people did, I just feared for the extreme buyers remorse if there was somehow one type or brand that was best for such things.

holy shit

boots are boots

They are disposable consumables. Different boots made differently with different lasts will fit different people and their different feet differently.

Find one that works for you.

Don't expect anon to tell you what works for you

OP, you specifcally want these boots in 10.5 UK.

They will work for you.

>>881540

How do you know a boot works for you before you even buy it?

>>877811

Osprey's okay if you can deal with some of the idiocy that comes with some of their designs. When ever they come out with something new, they fix some complaints of their previous packs only to fuck up something else. They also don't fit me very well at all. Some people love them, most people use them because their friends say they are good, many hate them.

>>877811
They tend to over design little fiddly details but overall they're very good packs and they have one of the best warranties in the business.

I'd recommending trying one on first if you have the opportunity, though. It may be a good pack but it might not fit you personally that well.

What are some other decent brands I should be looking at?

I like the city life. I like my job, I like streets and cafes and people. I like hustle and bustle, I like reveling in the combined architectual, cultural, and industrial achievements of mankind, and of our society. I like tall buildings and ferry rides buskers, I like being able to flirt with cute boys working at the supermarket and then bump into them at the pub on the weekend.

I love /out/ too, but I go /out/ for completely different things and completely different experiences and reasons. Neither one replaces the other for me.

>>873675
Because I'm saving up money to move

>>873680
You forget to list prostitutes, drug dealers, gang bangers, burglars, democrats, car thieves, pedophiles, spree killers, BLM activists- pretty much everyone you don't want your kids to grow up around can be found nearby you.

Shemaghs are good, only issues i have are that it can be hard to find one that's big enough and that they're kinda hard to breathe through when wet.

Bait?

>Hiking not dangerous for beginners
walking out in the woods to camp for a night or two in your local state park in good weather is not remotely dangerous and doesnt require ELITE /OUT/ SKILLS
>fire cooking is not practical
Correct. There are people on this board who think they are going to collect timber, start a fire, wait for coals, hang a pot from a stick or something every time they need to cook a pot of noodles

so many bait threads, today

>>884085

I think by far the most important aspect is the location of your player's abandonment. Caribbean? Pacific? Antarctic? etc etc. Makes all the difference.

>>884087
This isn't a bait thread and it's the first time I've been to /out/.

Is this the wrong board for /out/door survival, Anon?

do not wear your boots

>>883832
>I want the additional weight and roughness
>I don't want it to hurt

I don't even.

>Insisting on wearing painful boots
Sock liners, foot powder, prophylactic moleskin, extra socks, trimmed toenails, tolerance for pain.

>>883619

Reddit. Come back when you're more seasoned.

>>883462

>>883471
