Do you revisit same place or focus on specific destinations/sights? Or do you just randomly walk and see were the path takes you?

I revisit various sites once per 15-20 years. I've been to them as a kid, I've been to them during uni times and now I'm visiting them again.
Most often I just end up disgusted by their current state.

I try not to repeat, but when I can't go somewhere new I randomly return to any of my local favorites, although trying to make it a different experience.

Both

With a map, you know where the path takes you
Without a path, you'd better have a plan

I live 5 minutes from almost 10,000 acres of state park.. can hike, fish, kayak there multiple times a week and not get tired of it. Beats driving hours to go out.. You might pass a person or two, but being out 5 minutes from your house will suffice till you can invest the free time into big adventures.

I'm not like a klepto when it comes to going out, feeling like I can't visit the same place twice or i'll be bored to tears.. Just being outside will do.

I actually fish this one low-traffic technical bit of river and i've caught the same fish twice, multiple months apart.. which is awesome to see.

pics inbound.. look at the face. I call him delta P.

He actually fought really hard both times and took off happily both times, showing no signs of stress or anything. I almost ate him the first time but my creel lid closed before I could get him in there and he jumped back in the water as i was going to put him in the net again.. He gets a pass from here on out.

goddamn it first picture flipped upside down.. anyway the distinguishing spots are the two small ones behind the eye, the big P further back on the gill plate and the big dark triangle of spots all the way on the back of the gill plate.

there's this hidden rhododendron grove filled with several waterfalls filled with wild brook trout. I usually find myself revisiting in the summer time, since it's the best place I know to get away from normies.

Other seasons like fall and winter I wander out more often and look for new places. But its always nice to have a place to return to

whatever the mood calls for.
it can be exciting finding new places that haven't been disturbed, but the paradox is that sometimes i'm worried the wrong kind of person will see me going /out/ there and get curious. and by that i mean anyone but me. so i typically go over the same few areas repeatedly unless i know for sure there won't be anyone interested in checking out that dirt road they saw some dude walking down or that patch of woods he walked out of.

once in a while i get that itch that can only be scratched by going where i've never been and have no reason to be other than to see what's there. with the land owners permission, of course, should they show up before i leave. i probably have esp or something that keeps me from getting shot at.

there is an app for your phone in the US called OnX which is basically a map with boundaries and owner information. You could theoretically use it to contact people on whose land you wanna go

yeah, someone recommended that to me once, but they admitted it turned their brain to mush and reduced their pathfinding skills to pre-school levels. i suppose it wouldn't hurt to download it.

i don't intentionally trespass, but there was one time i almost walked into someone's backyard while their kids were outside. that could have been a sticky sit- um, nevermind.

Yea I don't use it for a trail map or anything.. It is interesting to look at. you can see just who the big landowners are in your area, how much they own, property boundaries, hunting regulations for public lands, etc.

I live in a pretty populated area and the biggest holdings you see are 200-400 acres, which still translates to millions.. an area where a 2 acre zoned residential lot goes for a quarter million dollars... and they own 1000 acres total in ag land.. pretty incredible.. But then you go out to the appalachian region and the paper and coal companies own 10,000 acre swaths of land.

I'm scared to go back to all the places I visited as a kid, I'm worried they'll look all small and non-magical now, surrounded by highways and cornfields and shit.

A mix of the two, honestly. There's not much more satisfying than just picking a direction or a peak in the distance and just seeing where the forest takes you.
However I also have those kind of 'sacred' spots or whatever that I always return to. Little gullies or caves or creeks, mostly places I connected with when I was innawoods as a kid or just have some sentimental value.
