Does anyone actually hike with these or are they just fashion items for UL faggots and women? They look extremely tiny and impractical to me

Winter wanderings edition.

Who's had any good /out/ings so far this winter? Every aspect of your edged what kit have you worked on lately? What plans do you have for the coming spring?

I love being outdoors, love hunting camping hiking fishing, all of it. Been doing it all since a kid. But I have a huge problem with being scared of the dark. I'm alright as long as there's someone else with me, but when I'm alone out deep enough into the woods I can't help but be debilitatingly scared of the dark.

It's so bad that I have to have my hand on my gun at all times once the sun goes down, I even piss in a bottle at night so I don't have to leave the tent. It's hard to sleep because I'm hyper alert to every sound, and as you know there are a lot of them at night. So my question is, has anyone else felt with this and how did you over come it?

I think the Cracow-Częstochowa Uplands in Poland are a bit underrated outing place

this is your jesuswhole bitches. bet ylal secretly jerk off to this shit. fuck all xtians, i'd happily blow up a church if i could. not saying i will, since i'd go to jail and i highly value my life ,and kids are innocent. so i swear i'll never do it, please don't SWAT Me. but my reaction is fair c onsidering the pure filth and antisemitism this filthy religion hs brouight, its a cancer to the nations. one day the world will be cleansed from its filth when the real messiah comes, all xtian people will be eradicated unless they leave their idolatry before.

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.

From what I gather, most of these are boomer-occupied. That's fine if those are the best ones but I can't help but feeling their insight is a bit dated. I just want to know where the interesting stuff is from people that actually homestead/prep/do survivalism which is more strictly oriented toward these lifestyles
