Was he a fat acceptance guy? I thought this whole thing was him trying to lose weight. I only watched a couple minutes of his "final thoughts" video though.

>>1035198
How many days did it take him to do the 15 miles? I have no desire to watch a fatty on youtube i hate every idiot vblogger i ever watched. But if he was fat and untrained and did 15 miles with a pack in a day i would be impressed.

> trail magic
"Look at me I researched a lot of hippie blogs before doing this!"

I'm thru hiking the AT once I finish my bachelor, taking a full half year for it. I swear to god if I meet a single person talking about trail magic or wanting to give me trail names I'll start swinging.

poison ivy

>>1034387
cool wat does that look like?

>>1034385
Dogbane. You have to wait until after the first frost, which causes the poison to collect in the roots.

And this everyday in the city and when I travel to shitholes

The other one is bigger and easier to read at a glance if I'm climbing something

I also bought this because I liked it on paper and it has a very distinct Metal Gear Solid feel to it.

But it's shit irl. Not solar and no Multiband 6. 2 to 4 second error each day. Absolutely worthless.

Nowadays gshocks are a meme one use only watch, protreks seem better

Fuck off we're full.

I am already here.
Maybe if some of you unemployed hipsters got jobs, they would not have to recruit half way across the country.

California is real nice this time of year, and its only about 1,000 miles west.

>>1005297

how about you kill yourself

>>1005297

Plenty of websites that let you print off topo maps for free. I print them out and just take them in to get laminated, costs like 30 cents.

>>1005303
i thought of that but the usgs maps are like 30 inches by 20 inches? print shop will print and laminate that for you for 30 cents?

Wow that was hard, definitely worth the thread.

I am an imbecile to have asked :)

Id recommend you use the GOD DAMN CATALOG

>>1037666
>is it for girls or what?
Nah. It's great for accessing parts of the backcountry that aren't suitable for cross country skiing

>>1037666
It's great, and if you grew up cross-country skiing like me, snowshoeing is a similar activity on a fundamental level, and it gets the same parts of your brain and body going. And it's a lot cheaper in terms of equipment.

Friend of mine once said "Snowshoeing is the winter sport equivalent of the fanny pack."

In my experience, it's pretty awful. I'd take skis over snowshoes any day of the week.

Good choice for virtue signalling cucks

I have the centurio 30 and it is great.
It has withstood loads of use and you can carry a ton of shit both inside and strapped to the outside of it. If your packing very heavy loads though I would recommend something with a padded waist belt.

>>1037432
Heavy and restrict movement. Their only valid application is horseback riding, for which they were invented and intended.

What is it with /out/ being a weak bunch of pussies?

What is it with /out/ ridiculing people that don't like to needlessly inconvenience themselves?

I'll be periodically posting photos in hopes of swaying anons to join me on my quest for glory.

Have fun with the ponies and remember they have no concept of age of consent

Well, you are not going to live there forever - that's the main point.
It's easy to get depressed during winter, because of total darkness for about 4 month (I have friends living on Svalbard, so they know how it works).
Overall, I would really love to live in Antarctica for some time, because of love to photography and nature.
Hurray Southern Lights and darkest sky.

too cold. mcmurdo's interior temp is kept at 57 degrees. i applied as an emt a few years back as a goof, totally not expecting to get an offer, then felt like a bit of an ass when i had to tell them thanks but no thanks.

Insane orgies. Other than that it's kinda dull here

How do you deal with luggages on small stops? Like if you wanna stop to visit a village without leaving your stuff prey to thieves?

>>1037252
travelling in scandinavia is pretty safe. you can easily leave your stuff and go hiking for like a day

get a proper touring bike w/ panniers & top case, or be prepared for constantly wet/dirty gear.

Also, very unsafe WRT center of gravity changing handling characteristics, extra weight changing braking, strong side gusts blowing you across lane of traffic.

Owned an SV650 for 10+ years, now ride a R1200RT to tour.

Fuuuuuuuug I bet nobody else on here does that shit.

Perhaps not!

I so wanted to do this when I was younger. Alas, there aren't any practicing Falconers close by for to understudy with.

penis
never put it on penis

>>1036854
Thankfully I don't have many articles of clothing made from penis.

>>1036853
Rubber (watch straps, condoms, etc). DEET melts that stuff.

Which makes me think that DEET shouldn't be on your skin. That stuff b
b nasty
