Hiking with an overweight/stubborn bf

No.2711855 View ViewReplyOriginalReport
Need advice. My boyfriend is quite overweight, he seems to be ok for the most part when we go on hikes but the downhill part always gets him. If it’s even the smallest bit rocky or the ground has a bit of mud he always slips and completely wipes out on the way down.

The past few times he wiped out completely on the way down and this happened three hikes in a row.

He thinks he is cursed but I told him it’s likely because of his weight.

The other issue is that he literally has poor vision and refuses to get glasses or even checked. He has had poor vision for several years now. I even notice it when he is driving. Im not sure if this could be part of why he slips but he claims he can see well for at least a few meters. He is also claiming his vision has improved but he hasn’t gotten it tested for a few years.

Does anyone have general advice or tips I can give him for hiking overall?

He moves very slowly too so it’s not like we’re being too fast or something.

I tried explaining to him about the 10 essentials but he doesn’t care and thinks I’m being ridiculous. He keeps saying he doesn’t care if he gets wet and we’re not that far from the car ever for it to matter (our hikes usually last a few hours in total maximum, but we have gone up steep places that would become dangerous if it started to rain). Does anyone have advice?

I also tried explaining hypothermia to him and he doesn’t care about what I have to say. Also he finds backpacks annoying and uncomfortable.

Last time we had a scare where I saw a deer running away and heard a growling bear noise right after and it was really hard to even convince him to turn back around. Idk what to do.

Pic related are the shoes he wears hiking

How to become /out/ guy?

No.2696487 View ViewReplyOriginalReport
I'm currently a neet that wants to become /out/ fag. My life has pretty much consisted of me sitting in my room watching Japanese cartoons and staying in the safe zone. I started trying new thing like going out to eat new stuff and really loved it. I live in Europe and had no idea my country has some beautiful /out/ spaces. I wanna visit them all, while I'm still funemployed I would like to see and learn something new and experience life and nature. What do you suggest, I have been thinking of visiting some cool nature park that I never knew it existed. I'm planning to go alone, I lurked for a bit here and saw a lot of camping thread. I never did it and I feel like it's not common i Eu. Keep on mind that Im really anxios about going places and stuff, how do I begin my journey?

Hobo General

This thread is for hobomaxxing

The southwest/florida season is almost over boys, do any nice odd jobs? Hope ya didn't stay too drunk!

Where are we headed next? Thinking the Lake Tahoe/Reno area until the summer comes.

Yes, you can get work without an address. Stick to landscaping and construction work. Craigslist is your friend. Sometimes warehouses work. Farm work is great whenever you find it. Yes. a true hobo works, and in fact works a lot.

Strongly considering a few seasons on a fishing boat.

Weather map shows current daily low temp conditions for the united states, as you can see we are only a couple weeks away from the majority of the U.S. being rather comfortable. I, for one, am a seasonal hobo. A nomad if you will. I prefer to travel with the seasons. Hobos that stay in one region are welcome ITT too of course. Any body that lives outdoors full time or for a long time.

which bow type is best for hunting and general shooting

iam convinced that traditional bows like long bow and horn bow (mongolian) are better than compound because they require skill and alot of training to master and can shoot heavier arrows and dont malfunction or need much care like the compound bow

How can you go on a 3 mile hike on an inhabited island where you are about 10 miles from the shore and get lost for 17 days?

how much research is required to go on a backpacking trip? Can I just pack up some clothes and a tent and fuck off to another country for a few weeks and see what I can do? Any of you done this?

I planned my first hiking trip / vacation in New Mexico recently and want more /out/ but in another country. Don't get me wrong, I still want to experience the local food and culture, I'm not trying to get stranded in the wild here, but do I need to research and prepare for lodging the entire time or should I just wing it and stealth camp and shit?
