>>472198lol reminds me of my first time doing an overnight hike on the Appalachian trail
I wore heavy cotton woodland camo pants and a matching woodland camo BDU jacket and BDU boonie. I wore a MOLLE ammo vest, and had an alice pack on.
Cut down part of a tree with a Coleman hatchet and duct taped my cold steel tanto knife to make a spear because I was afraid of black bears.
Maybe one or two hours later a youth Christian group was doing a hike and saw me. The look on their faces. They thought they were about to be murdered by John Rambo
Holy fuck I dun goofed so much on that trip, but I don't regret doing it, because I learned exactly what not to do and what not to bring backpacking. No more camo, no more milspec.
