If there's one thing I like about America, it's how much nature they have. So many National Parks, so many forests, so much wildlife. If you're American, you're definitely lucky.

What are we going to do about RV users? There is something deeply sick about these people who drive pretending they are camping in these things.

Trying to determine what kind of wood I got, is this heavily decayed hardwood or softwood?

How would you camp in the north eastern Victorian wilderness in and around Mount Buffalo?

There are the big general purpose ones, Intuit, clover etc and several agriculture specific ones, farmraise, ambrook etc. any recommendations? I need receipt scanning capability, expense totals, invoice generator, and ideally inventory count but don't really want my livestock data shared with big brother.

my back gets sweaty when i wear backpacks, any recommendations for daysacks that have some kind of ventilation to help with this when i go out for dayhikes?
ideally big enough to hold something a4 in

Below Antarctica are multiple gigantic mountain ranges. Do you think there will ever come a time when humans will finally hike them in all their glory without 1000m of ice being on top of them?

Any ABQ locals around? I'll be passing through next week and am wondering where's the best place to watch the balloons that doesn't require a ticket. I'm willing to hike but from what I can tell from pictures they stay pretty low.

Do you like via ferratas?

In Russia people build these small cabins in the woods without any permits. It's not really illegal but it's not legal also but the forest service don't really mind even though they have all rights to destroy them. It's kind of a grey area when it comes to law about them. And people use fallen trees to make logs for it( can't cut wood in Russia without permission). It's not a private property and anyone can stay in them when they want or need to spend the night of they are too tired to get home. They have wood burning stoves and can be a real life saver when it's cold, you can find some dry food and firewood inside left from the previous visitor and they expect you to do the same if possible for the next guy that comes there. Nothing fancy and not all of them are in their best shape but it's much better than a tent. Not sure about other countries but it's a big NO NO in the west. Also most of them are miles deep into the woods so the local bums can't get there easily and make a mess. Just thought I'd share it.

Some video of some Russian guy doing this .
