>>2439292who cares how big a mountain is if it's not on NF or BLM land? without freedom a mountain is just a gay city ornament. I want complete freedom to roam and camp and fuck around. not some pozzed state park experience. Texas just doesn't have Fed land outside of national parks and the flat Sam Houston NF. compare that to Colorado or California and it's absolutely no contest.
there are a lot of coping yuppies on this board who just moved to Austin. niggas, Texas will never be a thing in the outdoors community. it's just not a real competitor. it can only dominate in the third-tier of US states, like MS, LA, IL, NE, KS, etc. Even MO and AR kick its ass without trying. SD only has a small portion of its state that could be considered /out/, and those Black Hills rain diarrhea on the entire state of Texas.
anyway, you can cope however you like because your tech job requires you to live in the hell that is the Republic of Tejas, but that's all it will be in the end. coping. you guys have gotta stop with the state chauvinism in areas where it really doesn't belong. if you want to flex on Califags in /pol/ with your laws, I don't care, but please, stop coming to /out/ and pretending your state has a big mountain dick. it does not, you're embarrassing yourself, and what you do have is flaccid.
(but please, I beg you, despite what I've said - stay there. everywhere else is full.)
