Havent picked a campsite yet, seeing if anyone has recommendations? I plan on doing a bunch of hiking I can usually do 8-12 miles a day depending on elevation changes but from what I see there isnt a big trail system. Any advice is appreciated!

What's your guys's personal med kit looking like. You do have one right you never know what could go wrong. Mine consists of very basic bandages, gauze, arm and leg wraps, disinfectant and burn gel some stuff for headaches, stomach aches allergies, and a few snacks in case someone in my group has low blood sugar, and a split, two tourniquets all orange because if shit happens don't be tacticool be ready.

Whenever I go outdoors I travel with a couple buddies of mine since I'm the one who takes basic first aid classes, CPR classes and stop the bleed classes I'm basically the guy who carries all of the medical stuff. although I'm not actually that proficient I just know the basics.

What does your med kit look like? what do you carry and why. and is there anything you think I should add to mine?

I need an easy and cheap way to black out my car windows so I can sleep inside it. I'd considered getting some cheap fabric and just pinning it in the window itself, but people online say rain can wick through. I've also heard reflectix is good but we don't have it where i'm from.
Anyone got any novel ideas? Ones that don't damage the car preferably

Denali is a taller mountain than Everest and I'm tired of pretending it's not.

Yuppies were a mistake

How many famous hikes have you done, Anon?

You guys do bring medical kits when hiking right? My med kit is one of the heaviest items in my pack. I can't even imagine going out beyond 3mi risking large open wounds without a way to handle it.
