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.

I'm applying to conservation corps. I know the pay is going to shit but I'm retarded and I think it's cool to camp and work on trails all day.

Anyone have experiences with /out/ jobs?

> Be me.
> Taking a shit in the woods on a backpacking trip
> Enjoying the feeling of being completely alone deep in the wilderness
> being one with nature, etc. etc.
> Finish up, burying my shit, I turn around and notice a trailcam pointed at me.
> These fuckers are everywhere this year.
> Ruining my primitive experience.

> At the very least, maybe they could be used to secure a camp site with monitoring and alerting while you sleep?
> Still, I find the prospect of being on camera at all times, including private moments deep in the wilderness very disconcerting.

Post your favorite /out/ patches. Also, how do you display any patches you don't have on a pack? I tried doing a board but I think I need more patches because it feels empty.

What does your backpacking kit look like & what are your favorite pieces of gear you have that are unusual or greatly increased your quality of life on the trail? This is my basic kit alot of the gear is 10 years old or more I have recently added a camp chair & a little bidet that goes on a water bottle. My favorite piece of gear is not pictures but it is a frybake pan which is basically a lightweight dutch oven I will be using it on my trip at the end of this month to roast a chicken & make stuffing.

German anon here. Tomorrow, I will be heading to Decathlon to buy some hiking gear. I have never properly gone hiking before - at most, I have gone on 3-4 hour walks on forest trails. I will mainly be hiking in spring and autumn, and occasionally in summer, depending on the weather. Terrain wise, I will be mainly hiking in rather hilly areas with a few hundred meters of elevation, and more flat areas from time to time. I would also love to camp for a night or two while I'm at it, but if that's too much (budget wise), we can just stick with hiking gear for now.

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.
