>>1848632IMO ya gotta set goals, gets you moving towards something instead of just puttering along some trail looking to "connect with nature" or some vague, intangible concept you're trying to find because someone told you that's what you should do. I climb and birdwatch, so it's always pretty easy to stay entertained if I'm by myself.
>climb the rock>find 60 speciesIf I go with a group I try to get people moving and make memories, otherwise it deteriorates into sitting around doing trivial house tasks like cooking and cleaning but outside where they are harder to do, then maybe some short ass hike and back to planning dinner and cleaning up after dinner. Campfire with a group is maximum comfy time tho.
Books are good too for when it's too hot for stuff around mid-day but you find some shade near a creek.
