On the same vein, Blevins gives an entertaining summary of the mountain fur trade era, from its beginings on the Lewis and Clarke return expedition, to its death with the Oregon Trail. Includes the Hugh Glass story and the many adventures of Jed Smith.

Jack London. Call of the wild and White Fang are good, his short stories are great and pretty underrated.
Ernest Hemingway had a few /out/ short stories that I enjoyed.

You can read at home, cunt.
The Mystery of Everett Ruess
Finding Everett Ruess
Can't believe that neither of these have been mentioned. The first contains the letters written by Ruess to his family back in civilization. If you haven't heard of him, he disappeared in 1934 at just 20 years old in the Escalante country of southern Utah. THis was when the land was really wild. Nobody knows what happened to him. This kid packed more life into 20 years than the rest of us on this board will put together. He was the originator of the phrase "Where I go I leave no trace."

My Side of The Mountain.
Honestly you can really read just about anything /out/. My personal favorites related have been Zen and the art of motorcycle maintenance and Walden, but last time I was backpacking for 2 weeks I brought the brothers karamazov and it was just as enjoyable.
Maybe not strictly /out/ but browse through a bit of Kipling long enough, you'll find something that tickles your fancy. Some of deeper stuff is good campfire reading.
On the other hand I sometimes go for darker fare, especially in the summer when Florida turns into white Uganda. Heart of darkness gets read through a couple times a year.
If you want to be red pilled about society but you're an unoriginal fuck like me, read Fight Club innawoods.
Seriously though, way better than the movie, his writing style as Tyler Durdens mind unfolds, the text just gets more chaotic and unpredictable as you read, pretty phenominal.

Couldn't finish it. Guy makes fun of the mediocre brainwashed lives people live in order to eat and pay for things while he lives on his buddy's land, begs for food, and does laundry at his mom's house. Not even joking.
Not technically out, but some good exploration shit in House of Leaves
>>1002539
i kinda remember there being a bunch of sex scenes

LOTR trilogy
most /out/ adventure book ever
Missing 411 if you want spooky
If anyone has the .pdf of this, please share. Great /out/ book. Read it in elementary school. Took forever to track it down. I want to read it again.
Anybody read John Muir? Does it even makes sense reading him as a eurofag who has never been to the US?
This was pretty good. Canadian long-distance paddling guy talks his two sons into trying to take a canoe trip with him from Manitoba all the way to the mouth of the Amazon. I got the feeling I wouldn't like him all that much in person, but it's still super-impressive.

I read some of his work, though I forget which. It was mostly biographical in nature and highlighted his time in the mountains as a young man. He was tending sheep I believe on the hills during summer. He talked about how he loved the sound of a babbling brook and diverted a small portion of it so it would run under his shelter so he could always hear it. Pretty boss.
River Horse by William Least Heat-Moon
Travelogue of a trip across America in a small motorboat.

REEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
LEAVE NO TRACE
I found an old book in a used bookstore about camping called Wildwood Wisdom. It was written in the 40s so most of the advice is out of date but it's a great read and the illustrations are fantastic.
Anything by Hemingway
