My parents bought me an internal frame backpack years ago. I've only used it twice, as I have just been doing dayhikes and car camping for the past few years. I want to do backpacking.


Has technology changed a lot? Will an internal frame from 2002 that has been safely inside a rubbermaid box do just fine for weekend excursions?


Pic related, it's a CampTrails Wilderness internal frame backpack (off brand of Eureka).

I always liked Coronado NF, particularly the west side in and around Madera.

The hills around Bisbee had some of the best quail hunting I've ever seen as well.

How's your star gazing going?

Lately I've been trying to get a look at Saturn, but I just can't find the fucking thing. I'm able to find the constellation of scorpius, but no luck with Saturn.

it's too damn bright in Northern hemisphere right now during the summer, but at least we have NLCs!
You should be easily able to find Saturn - it's just left from Antares

>>1046349

Yeah, I can find Antares, and from there I know Saturn should be to the left of it, but no joy.

the planets occur in phases too so check your star calender for the timing and star at the spot in the calender so that you have a residual memory of it

Sup /out/

I'm heading out for a two-week camping eXperience.

I'm a relative noob to the outdoors, and this is one of the reasons i plan on going. I'll be taking a basic tent and enough water/food to survive for two weeks, but i'm sure to be bored. to that end, what kind of skills would you lads suggest i attempt to learn during my boring days?

Australian bushland much like my picture. It's a family property so I'm allowed to have fires and be environmentally unfriendly however i wont be attempting to burn the place down or deforest it. I'll be able to take basic tools and anything i might need for skill enhancement. No snow or any kind of extreme weather conditions, it'll be a little chilly but thats about it.

I will also be taking a compound bow, i don't really intend to hunt but if a stray roo wanders across my path i'll try to stick him with a few arrows.

Some ideas i had myself
>knots
>rudimentary carpentry
>latrine digging
>cloud bursting
>snake bite avoidance
>building a palisade wall around my camp site and refusing to leave the property when ordered to do so by the authorities
>i will defend my right to exist as a vagrant in my viking fortress

tl;dr what skills should i focus on learning while im innawoods? two weeks to fuck around and do whatever I want, assume no wifi.

you are going to sit in one spot for 2 weeks?
>It's a family property
backyard camping?
Why not move around and explore instead of focusing on "muh skills?"
>>
>>1046253
its a massive property at least by my standards, ill be camping about an hours walk from the homestead.

im sure ill spend a day or two walking around and exploring shit, but i'm more interested in developing some outdoor skills.

Im looking to get a enduro bike, but im not sure what to get. I think a 250 2 stroke would be right up my ally. I raced motocross before, but that was a few years ago. I'm a semi experienced rider . In those few years I haven't kept up with the motocross/enduro industry.
Id like to get a bike for regular recreational use but dont really what to choose from.
I would also appreciate if it wasn't so high end that it would break the bank.

I would highly recommend a newer 4 stoke. the tech involved with the 4 strokes has made many leaps and bounds and a new 250 4 stroke is competitive older 250 2 stroke. if you want something street legal from the factory i think the only small light endro is the honda crf250l. otherwise most on/off road bikes are older or 650ccs & up. however a honda xr650 with some mods is a fierce bike, as its basically an xr650r detuned and with a headlight and indicators. the other option depending on where you live is the wr250f i think. but those anr't sold in the us as far as i know.

>its basically an xr650r detuned and with a headlight and indicators

No, the XR650L is completely different from the XR650R. They basically no parts commonality and use completely different frames and engines.

Yes. Visit the numerous islands off of Tongyeong. The ferry runs to all the worthwhile ones. My favorite was Saryangdo, Bijindo and Someimuldo were also nice. There's a lot of mountains on the south end for good hiking. The touristy one is Mirueksan and has a cable car if you so choose. Geoje has some good spots for beach camping and hiking too.

I lived in Tongyeong for 2 years and I just got back to America last month.

There's a massive Buddhist temple area in Busan. A lot of huge statues and cool stuff. I forgot the name but if you search you'll find it. All outdoors.

Learn the language it'll help so much in so many ways. It'll help get the qts too if you so choose. I envy you because I'm already missing Korean food so much.

wow that's cool as hecc

what happens if you accidentally fall in or something (killer whales, freezig to death, face cold)? how dangerous is this? how many people did you go with? are the waters really non-turbulant when you're that north>?

Hello /out/.
Im gonna go camping for a few days. This will be the first time im gonna go camping alone and for a long period of time. Ill go to a place far away from any civilization and desu im kind of spooked. I dont go camping alot but i want to try something new and i think going camping alone for about a week will boost my thirst for nature, innawoods and such. Any tips/advice?

You should really bring a buddy. Only experienced campers should be alone. If the solitude is what you want, then you dont need to setup near each other, but having a lifeline within a few hundred yards is invaluable.

>>1043890
Camping alone only boosts my thirst for people to talk to and a fast food burger.

Due to most people on 4chan having terrible social skills, we end up having threads about this exact topic on a weekly basis here. Here are two that are still up you can check out:
>>1022038
>>1028501
There's nothing inherently more dangerous or more scary about solo camping if you have any kind of experience in the backcountry. That said, it might help people give you advice if you told us where you intend to go and your personal history in the outdoors. The kind of advice given to a former Boy Scout who knows the basics but just never went /out/ much without a group is going to be very different from the kind of advice given to someone who is totally out of shape and was raised by television and video games but now wants to do a circuit of the Tetons solo.

I'll list a few basic questions below. If you want to answer them here, it will help move this conversation forward. If not, I'd still recommend thinking about them for your own sake.

>1) If you plan to do any hiking with a backpack, then what is your level of physical fitness, particularly cardiovascular? What distance can you run at a moderate jog without stopping?

>2) Do you have any camping equipment and what do you have? In particular, think about your sleeping bag, sleeping pad, tent, rain gear, backpack and a way to keep the gear inside dry if it rains, your water treatment device or chemicals, and a stove (if you plan to cook or boil water for dehydrated meals).

>3) When/how many times have you gone camping before and how did it go? How involved were you in planning the trip?

>4) What is the general area and type of terrain where you want to go camping this time (specifics would be nice, but not required if you are afraid of people stalking you)? Have you gone there before with other people and do you have maps of the area?

>5) What do you intend to accomplish over the time frame you are thinking about? For example, fishing, distance hiking, photography, doing drugs, etc.?

Anyone been to Glacier? Planning a 5-6 day backcountry trip there in a few weeks. Want to know:
>How did you get there?
>Did you try the backcountry permit lottery? (already pretty slammed)
And other general impressions and tips.

Anon, I grew up there. Feel free to ask away.

If you can't get a permit, GNP has some great car camping. You can also look for forest service rentals up the north fork.
>>
I took the train there. Walked, hitchhiked, and took the shuttle to get around. Walkin permits were easy to get for everything except the popular overnight spots. Definitely carry bear spray.
