>>2790755Ok so here's the out sticky for reference:
We encourage you to have a look around the catalog first to see what we’re all about before posting your first thread. Topics typically posted here include:
>Outdoor recreational activities (Hiking, trail running, bushwhacking, camping, spelunking, geocaching, orienteering, expeditions, urban exploration, backpacking, etc.)>Gardening, farming and related activities>Hunting and fishing, and other activities involving the stalking or taking of game (including bird-watching)>Outdoor survival, bushcraft, foraging, self-sustenance in nature, train-hopping, hoboism, etc.>Outdoor destinations and exploration (specific trails, parks, regions, etc.)>Water-related activities (boats, diving, etc.)>Outdoor philosophy (conservation, Leave No Trace, protectionism, etc.)>Outdoor building and living (cabins, huts, treehouses, etc.)>Outdoor social activities and organizations (meet-ups, Scouts, NOLS, etc.)>Gear related to any of the above topics>Outdoor destinations and exploration (specific trails, parks, regions, etc.)There have been like 2 threads about east coast hiking in the past few years here that are actually about real specific trails people are so obsessed with gatekeeping "omg overcrowding" that despite there being 100 million people within a day's drive of eastern forests/hills, there's absolutely ZERO discussion about comparing trail experiences and conditions here
like people would rather have just troll threads and gear threads than u know actual discussion cuz then the 200 people who read this board would then crowd out every trail mentioned?
