I’ll be spending a few weeks in/around stehekin, Washington in March. Tips, stories, advice on what to see and do would be appreciated.

Try not to become a statistic. Come prepared.
Remember, the summit experiences 40 Mph. gusts on a regular basis, and by noon tomorrow, we will experience a low of 41F.
Good luck, Anon.

>>2835418 You're retarded, he's talking about WA not Mt. Washington.
>>2834659 OP it's going to be rainy as all hell in March so if you're going to be doing any /out/ activities bring a good rain jacket and maybe even rain pants if you're going to be hiking. Preferably something silpoly or silnylon instead of goretex so it doesn't wet out on you, which inevitably will happen. Most trails are going to be either snowy or super wet. If you can I would recommend doing a long drive to Olympic National Park or somewhere on the coast as it doesn't really snow and the weather is pretty constant. If you have winter hiking gear go ahead just be careful.
Prime /out/ time in WA is from June-early September for hiking, the winter is good for snow sports desu.

Lets say you just bought a house in one of these cookie cutter suburbs that are being thrown up all over America currently. What are you doing to make the best of the land that you got, assuming you have a laid back HOA? Are you planting or building anything?

>>2833842 Most suburban backyards aren't big enough to meaningfully range an archery block, unless you want to shoot at 10 yards.
The HOA would seek legal action against you overrunning your front yard with "weeds" and no, they wouldn't know the difference.
There's no point in bat boxes if there aren't bats around in the first place.

If you want to poison your neighbors, that would be an identifiable source of change, but you're not going to do that. You're not even going to grow much of a garden. Maybe, you'll have a couple succulents. That's it.

anyone else copping the Bosideng x Acronym collection? It is supposed to be much more /out/ than Errolson's usual stuff. I know a lot of people here said Acronym was really weak and fell apart for the price but maybe this collab stuff will be better?

800fp down is good enough at least
they say they're using "goretex black label" but i'm not familiar with that goretex product and can't seem to find any info on it
no info given on shell denier or anything like that
the reversibility gimmick is sort of fun I guess but not really for me
there are no pit zips that I can see on either jacket
jacket weight isn't even listed
the price isn't totally insane comapred to arc'teryx or norrona or whatever so if you want it for fashion and you're looking for an excuse you can use that
maybe you have access to more info but I don't think there's quite enough on the page to make a judgment off of

Anyone else avoids exploring abandoned structures because it makes you sad? Human existence has always been decay, upheaval and rebirth. I'm not stupid. The house I live in will at some point be the shitty part of town, probably condemned by an uncaring developer for gay investment properties. But still, it feels way worse for industrial buildings and mines. They got us here as a society. Their coal fuelled the little power and transportation our ancestors had even 4 generations ago. All that was done with next to no safety equipment, in steep shafts and w/ no guarantee it won't collapse. Knowing that, I just feel so sad over all of those involved; the equity holders who had to risk those operational risks in a pre-diversification financial economy at a shitty 2.5 beta.

I always think of restoring stuff for tourists. I don't think mines are usable because of structural and breathing issues - but allllll over Ruralia there's logging railroads that used to exist and still could if states put in the effort to add touristic infrastructure. Autonomous electric tourist trains could run through every steep holler and enable even disabled and old people to experience what it would have been like during the logging boom era.

>the slowest hiker in the group sets the pace Should this apply 100% of the time or is there some nuance? What if the slowest hiker in the group is also super experienced, has excellent navigational abilities, is comfortable hiking in the dark, and has no problem staying overnight in a tent/hammock/bivy if needed? Would it be the end of the world if the experienced but slow hiker were in the back of the group and could go at his own comfortable pace? The way I see it, the "slowest hiker in the group sets the pace" mantra only applies to inexperienced hikers who could get in serious trouble if he/she were separated from the pack. What say you, anons?

idk if you dont wanna hike with friends or with a group just go hiking alone Imagine inventing somebody to go hiking with you and just leaving them lmao

Quoted By:
>>2828991 There is no lower limit. You can just stand still. That's what's wrong with this whole thing. You are obligated to not hold the group back. If you can't fulfill that obligation, you should excuse yourself immediately and allow the rest to continue. Or just not bring your fatass to an activity you literally cannot do.
It's like the catfishers who open the door and they're 200 pounds heavier than they claimed. They are exploiting and abusing social politeness to rape their victims. You can't say no because that would be ruuuuuude! No, bitch, you're a fat disgusting sow and I'm not into bestiality, you can't force me to fuck you with those tears.
Not even by callin' the cops and claiming you were raped will you get fucked.

Why does the Caribou Targhee National Forest never get talked about? Is it because its completely overshadowed by the Teton Mountains and Yellowstone which are about 10 minutes and 30 minutes away respectively?

>>2835330 Looks nice. It's also incredibly more affordable to do anything in Idaho desu compared to Western Wyoming (esp during tourist seasons). I was in Alpine, WY not long ago and some guy recommended I go off somewhere that I think would have ended up in CTNF. I didn't end up doing it though (was my last day, was driving back home next day).
