>>2772017 If I understand correctly- My dad is from a small town near Nuoro and my mom Cagliari, I wasn't born there. My mom looks much more spanish/mixed whereas my dad really looks like a typical Sardinian. Most people have a hard time guessing where I'm from. You?

my mother is 100% from the spot center of Sardinia and my father is from the northern tier. I have zero southern sardinian ancestry, which is good because a lot of those could have phoenician admixture (including your mom)

I am a professional trumpet player getting ready for my first backpacking trip. I'm equipped with a plastic trumpet that I'll clip on my pack. Now I'm starting to wonder about the best way to keep my chops in shape. I plan on only playing music and etudes, maybe at the end of the day before dinner and after setting up camp. Is this sort of thing acceptable, for example within campground rules? I know how far a trumpet can carry in the wilderness (especially across bodies of water) and would not want to upset other backpackers in the area. Further, how can I best approach practicing while on the trail? What is customary and generally accepted about artificial noise on the trail? Any thoughts or advice would be greatly appreciated.

I have a good 3d printed travel organ that I plan to clip to my backpack, and I'm totally unconcerned by trail "etiquitte" as far as noise level but I'm a little concerned about finding a congregation to play for on the trail. I'm big on ultralight so I don't wanna bring my daily driver. Anyone know of perhaps a 3d printed congregation I could set up when I camp or should I just try to start with the wave and stay with it and force my fellow hikers to listen at the shelters? Hiking the AT by the way.

If you’ve ever felt the urge to strip off those pesky clothes and dive headfirst into nature, you’re in the right place. Let me tell you, there’s nothing quite like the feeling of the sun on your skin, the breeze in places where the sun usually doesn’t shine, and the sheer joy of embracing nature in your birthday suit. You might be wondering, “Why on Earth would anyone want to hike naked?” Well, let me tell you, my curious friend, once you’ve experienced the freedom and connection of hiking in the buff, you’ll never look at a pair of hiking shorts the same way again. Clothes can be so overrated, don’t you think? They’re restrictive, they get sweaty, and they never quite let you feel the true essence of the wild. Plus, think of all the laundry you won’t have to do! In this book, we’re going to embark on a journey that’s equal parts hilarious, enlightening, and downright freeing. We’ll explore the history of naked hiking (yes, people have been doing this long before it was cool), learn how to prepare for your first foray into the wild without clothes, and discover the best trails where you can let it all hang out. Along the way, I’ll share my own stories and mishaps, because let’s be real, what’s an adventure without a few laughs and a bee sting in an awkward place? Now, I know what you’re thinking: “Kristin, what about all the other hikers? Won’t they be shocked to see me in my natural state?” Fear not, intrepid hiker! This book is packed with tips on how to find nudist-friendly trails, how to handle unexpected encounters with clothed hikers, and how to hike confidently and respectfully. Spoiler alert: a friendly wave and a smile go a long way.

I swear to god there's some other worldly shit in the woods in here in the north east. i don't know what it is but occasionally there's just this feeling that something is off all my hunting buddies
agree.do you guys relate?
THERE IS SOMETHING OUT THERE

>>2768690 Growing up I spent a lot of time on a ~15 mile long forested bluff. Not really remote, but one particular patch of ground has ALWAYS been this way. Passing through that area I'm always in a hurry to move on. Stumbled across many more bones and carcasses there than usual. What ultimately did it for me was going there with my old dog who usually tore through the trees indiscriminately like a madman bothering animals and seeing him cower, whine and make it clear that he did not want to keep going. Cougars are seen on trail cams somewhat frequently around there so I've always wondered.

Wwyd if you were this guy and had a wife who refused to carry anything on your hikes?

>>2770848 Well if she's been able to get away with not carrying anything on hikes, they obviously haven't been very strenuous. Probably neither of them are ready for a 14er.
If she's going to be that dense though, I'd just warn her that the minute she starts whining and begging me for any of my supplies is the minute we turn around and go back to the parking lot. Let her find out the hard way if she's not going to listen to reason.

And yeah, if I break my ankle then I'll use the SAM splint and tape I know she's carrying to walk on out. Or her PLB if it's too serious a fracture for that.
Hasn't happened yet though.

>>2770917 >Of course, there is a line where things shift from "not burdening yourself with unnecessary gear" to being "dangerously unprepared and the sort person who gets a SAR called out because you're a retarded fuck". I'm kinda like you where I play it a bit loose, but my biggest metric for acceptable preparedness is how many people I expect to be around. Maybe its a little scummy to assume other people would render aid if I got in a tough spot, but the other side of that is the more people are on any given trail, the easier and lower risk there is of getting lost or even dangerously injured. Like this past weekend I did an impromptu trail run at a local park, carrying only my phone and keys. Meanwhile I passed a dozen boomers with full kit.

Is there a big market for rod tubes? Like a case for my rods basically. I want one that's small enough to fit into my checked baggage. I had one previously that came with the rod I bought, but I managed to snap it in half. I could also try building one with a tube from a hardware store, but if I can just buy one and they're pretty cheap I would rather do that.

Let's say I hooked a catfish in the gills and took the hook out along with chunks of the fish the hook was attached to (I'm not an expert, but pretty sure it was parts of the gill, also because it was bleeding from its gills). It's probably safe to say that fish would die if I released it back in the water, right? I figured better safe than sorry and ikijime'd the fish with my knife and used it for bait since that seemed more humane than letting it suffer over the course of a few days
