I haven't been on /out/ in over a year, tell me what I've missed.
Last time I was on out I painted this for you guys
>>967467
>what tent should i buy
>what backpack should i buy
>what knife should i buy
>what sleeping bag should i buy
>what stove should i buy
>what food should i bring
etc.
so, nothing.
>>967467
Only difference is that lots more people have broken their knives from being retarded. Two years ago, it was mainly just a matter of lots of people being retarded and not (yet) knowing better.
>>967467
Wut is you're favorite ferro rod? I prefer to use them instead of lighters because that way I can keep my blade sharp and make fires at the same time. Killin two birds with one stone.
>>967483
>my sides
>>967467
Nothing. Just the same threads from before.
>>967482
I'm not surprised. Look how heavily knotted that wood is. It was not a knife issue, it was a retard issue. Either way, fucker should of used a hatchet or other chopping tool.

Threads are only archived for three days because
beyond that it's the same stuff recycled over again.
>>967469
This post has made me realize that the vast majority of this board cancer.
>trail runner thread (x3)
>knife thread (x3)
>my gear thread (x3)
Very little real/usable information is passed around on this board. Why I keep coming back is a mystery to me.
>>968742
*is cancer
Jesus... I must be part of the problem.
>>967467
One of the fishing tripfags got outed as a furfaggot. But no new great meme since last year. Probably the last great meme was bodyslamming wolves.
>>968804
Details? I always hide the fishing threads so I must have missed that.
>>968742
the game commences
>>967467
Some anon came here a few months ago for advice on luring hookers into the woods with him for platonic companionship. Said serial killers were giving him a bad name.
I don't know if there is a screencap somewhere.
Looking to get into mountain climbing, I have 4 years gym experience ,but I would like to join any group willing to take me. Willing to travel just give me the heads up on were to go and were to meet.

If it wasn't for the female companion, that would be /out/ in a nutshell.
We don't have as many McCandless threads.
>>969153
That's only because none of the newfags even know who he is.
>>968998
that is a fucking terrible shop. especially since they removed the trailing line to make him le ebin hardcore freesoloer, but left his harness, all the extra dangly bits likes his pas, and, worst of all, where the rope is (was) tied into the harness. seriously, this took me less than 5 minutes to fix.
>tfw realize you spent a year inside talking about going outside
welcome back anon we missed you
>>970172
don't feel to bad anon, some people spend their entire lives talking about going to heaven
>>968947
You're missing out
>>967756
Are you retarded?
On the subject of this thread, I'm new to /out/ (migrated from /int/ where I've been for years but can no longer tolerate). I get that batoning is some kind of longstanding /out/ meme, but can someone give me the full story? How is this a better idea than a simple hatchet (which is cheap, light, and made for this specific purpose)?
What am I missing?
>>970216
I would rather boton with a Mora than carry a tacticool SOG hatchet tbqhwy
>>969143
Probably his cousins.
>>970219
I would have agreed, but I got pic related as a gift last Christmas. I was expecting the entrenching tool to be useful but the hatchet and machete to be tacticool shit. It ended up being the opposite. The hatchet and machete are among the best I've ever owned, lightweight, comfortable, compact, sturdy, hold an edge, and the saw on the machete works great. The E-tool is almost completely useless though.
>>970216
Batonning is a valid method for making kindling from SMALL logs. Greenhorns who don't know better started batonning logs that really need an axe to be split. Laughing at these people is fun. The End.
I haven't been here for quite a while either but at least now we don't have a shitload of knife threads.

>One of the fishing tripfags got outed as a furfaggot
What's wrong with that? I'm a furfag who likes to hike.
I don't hike with a tail or ears or something. I'm just a normal person outside of the internet.
>>970725
>Furry
>On 4Chan
>Normal person
Are you sure about that? Also, I want pics of you wearing hiking gear while in your fur suit for keks.
>>970725
Furries are disgusting fetishist fucks who for some reason feel the need to tell everyone about their nasty dog fucking fetish. You deserve to burn.
>>970296
>iam abuse muh knofe to makes readily available kindling outta less readily available fuel
>>968742
It's the same reason that any of us comeback to any board. You find the occasional gen in the shit pile and keep digging.
>>967473
The trees are fighting back.
>>970725
Nobody FUCKING cares
>>971606
Small kindling is easier to burn, desu.
>>970200
God loves you!
>>967467
the shitposting has increased by several orders of magnitude
every /out/ related thread gets derailed by angry fags
>>972431
>said to derail this thread
I see what you did there. Fag.
most of my beard is all uniform except the bottom which grows 4 times faster than the rest. thats the latest news.
mgtow threads and derailments are less prevalent. that's a good thing.
