Well in my opinion, I'd say it's an American retail and outdoor recreation services corporation that sells sporting goods, camping gear, travel equipment, and clothing.

The dividend is amazing

People like to rip on them for being overpriced, but I think they are ok. They carry a bunch of good gear that you don't see at Dick's or other outdoor sports stores. They used to have an amazing return policy, but that was unfortunately ruined by a bunch of selfish pricks. Similarly, selfish people who go to physical stores to try out all the gear and then order from another online store because they might save $5. That's a good way to ensure there's no places to try out gear before using it in the future.

Also the garage sales are pretty nice at REI locations in major cities. Haven't been in a while though as I haven't really needed anything from them (might be worse since they stopped the amazing return policy).

The fuck are you asking about? What do you want to do? Hiking or are you asking bout graphic design? Talking about going 50ft from parking lot and drawing shit?

Graphic designer is a shitty job to take on the road... there i plenty of unemployed graphic designers/illustrators everywhere in the world. So you get hired almost purely on your contacts, and building up contacts every new place you go can be difficult/impossible. Unless you're a really cool outgoing partyguy who can join the incrowd of any city... i would something online if i were you, take your existing job with you

You might be better off with aquarium charcoal, that way you know it doesn't have any accelerant-type chemicals in it.

>>1095585
Oohh... I forgot they made that.

4 layers, charcoal sand charcoal sand. our thats what i read. this was in a big drum.

You'll die.

You should probably work your way up to doing this. I mean you don't even understand anything about bears yet.

>bears
Keep your food (and everything that smells, such as toothpaste) somewhere they can't get it while you sleep. Unless your bears are starved and crazy like Kamchatka bears, you'll be fine.

so this is what I took on my trip (10 days). My pack had 17 kg (37.5 lbs) with 2.5 litres of water and it was really heavy for me, because I'm pretty skinny (56 kg / 123.5 lbs)
how can I reduce weight some more?
how the hell am I supposed to go more than 20+ days when I have to carry all the food?
I'm planning on doing the grande traversata delle alpi next year - which is 2 months - and I still don't really know what I should do about the water and food. I know I can buy it along the way, but if I have to carry water and food for, lets say 3 - 4 day it's at least 6 kg / 13 lbs. My back will explode.

Drop the thermos, two of the shorts and at least one of the shirts. Swap the alcohol stove for gas or carry less fuel. Exchange the hoodie for a lightweight down or fleece. Is your sleeping bag one of those 2kg carinthia monstrosities? How much does your tent weigh?

Get a water filter and a map with marked water places. Plan your food resupplies carefully.

Gain some weight.

>>1095384
i realize i packed too much clothing
can't drop the fuel if i want to do longer hikes
my sleepingbag is 1.2 kg
tent is 1.4 kg
i am slowly gaining weight, but it takes a lot of time

how can i drop the thermos? what about the cold?
am i missing something? do all of you run around with 17+ kg packs?

Hurricane repellants?

Is this an actual happening or media's hype?
I assume strong winds can't melt concrete homes.

>>1095261
how dumb are you? be honest.
if you can't use a paper map and compass even a little bit, you should probably travel with a friend.

otherwise a used etrex or geko for $20 is a fine companion to a paper map and compass, and it can share batteries with your headtorch.

>>1095261

i'm using a garmin gpsmap 64s with openstreetmap maps.

would recommend it.

although >>1095369 is kinda right. batteries leave you. paper does not

Too many laws.

>>1095293
are you a spaniard?

>>1095355

Not him but a quick google confirms hes right

Its a good place for /out/ if you don't get caught camping somewhere you're not allowed to camp. Which is everywhere basically

Canada Goose is just like one thing of note, right? They pretty much only make winter coats. It's like asking whether MSR is better than Osprey

>>1094551
as >>1094554 has already said you're comparing wildly different products with wildly different intended uses

>herp derp how do people feel about mack trucks are they better than ferraris

>>1094554
>>1094563
Okay, faggots. How do you feel about Canada Goose products, then?
