You know those threads we have every week about dropping everything and living alone in the woods? Almost in a ascetic manner without internet and no job.
Why? What causes it? To me it seems to be wanting an escape of urban life, the responsibilities and never-ending noise, the internet that has been utterly destroyed, to escape corporatism or something along those lines. To utterly reject consumerism and decadence.
Now in that sense the desire for that has been noted to have existed since roman times from what i have read. To simpler times, to rural life before urbanization. A romantization of perhaps a gilded past. Don't get me wrong, rural life is superior to urban life but it too has its disadvantages. Especially now when the majority lives in the city leaving only old people out in the countryside rather than the bustling village 100 years ago. The warmth of the village is gone in most places or dying out as is.
If you can't find contentness in the now then you won't find contentness in a log cabin in the middle of Alaska.

Any of you guys know where I can get a modern crye-style combat shirt in Erbsenmuster? Or Eichenlaubmuster.
As a lesser consolation a modern jacket or parka would also be acceptable.

This is a thread for enjoying a pipe while doing outdoor activities. If you ask why this belongs on /out/, you've never spent
an evening by the campfire with a pipe silently enjoying the nature around you, and you're missing out.

>how to get started
Purchase a corn cob pipe (or a cheap briar pipe) and a pouch of Half and Half or Captain Black tobacco from a smoke shop
or online. You will need a lighter or match, and something to tamp it with--a large nail works well if you don't have a pipe tool.
Fill the pipe with tobacco, pack it down halfway, top it off, pack it down to 3/4, top it off again, pack gently and enjoy. Smoke
slower than you think you need to, the tobacco tastes best when it is burning cool. Tamp and re-light as needed. If you still
have trouble, try different methods on YouTube until you find one that works for you.
>smoking a pipe will give you cancer
Originally the Surgeon General found that pipe and cigar smokers, following a careful study of the statistics (at a time when
most adults smoked, so they had a good sample size), had insignificant death rate increases. Nowadays, tobacco is being
legislated against while hard drugs are being legalized. Put two and two together. Tobacco is just another good thing under attack by the government.

>muh weed
Not the time or place. Start your own thread.

All tobacco users welcome.

Is it possible to hike in North Korea? It's mountain ranges are basically prime backpacking territory and peaceful solitude.

>meet a /out/doorsy girl who actually likes it, not just for social media
>knows how to hunt and fish and handle herself in the wilderness doesn't whine about the heat or the bugs and doesn't need me to babysit her
>always down to go exploring random caves and climb on random rocks and cliffs and go on spontaneous wacky adventures with me

>she's a dyke

every single time! whyyyy

Do you like to look at things when you go /out/?
Show us your optics.
>monoculars
>binoculars
>scopes
>sunglasses too, I guess
>cases/carry systems
>cleaning and maintenance
>poorfag options

I have a Vortex 8x25 mono that I like to bring, but I regret not buying the 10x25. Binos are my old Nikon Travelite III 10x25.

How does this happen?
Femanoid gets into an argument with a friend at a bar and storms out into a snowstorm with no coat or phone and dies.

How would you have survived /out/?

Hello /out/ it's me again. Maybe it is time for another abandoned mine exploration thread. I have posted these for over a decade; this will be the last one. AMA. I'll answer what I can. I hope you enjoy.

I want to have camping adventures like Rin chan, traveling with a tent and staying in camping places around southern germany and central europe as a whole, but I need to make a choice

Either I go the Rin route and buy a scooterlike motorbike or I buy an e-bike

On one hand with the motorbike I get to go farther away and faster and have more carrying capacity, but with the e-bike I have full access to europe's large bike trail network and can travel by train with it when necessary. Also, thanks to the engine, hilly terrain isn't a problem

Help me make a choice

post your climbed mountains map

here's mine
