But yeah, before I had money I used to make fun of everyone who shopped at REI. My own need to justify being broke then aside, you really can do alot with nothing at all.
>You don't need a 500 dollar tent and sleeping bag>You don't need a sleeping pad >You don't need a head lamp >You don't need a super knife >You don't need a framed back pack >You don't need expensive boots And so on and so forth. It's just that those things let you go further, easier, for longer.
OP, go into your closet and grab your school back pack. Find a 2 liter soda bottle, fill er' up. Toss in some snacks, your jankiest pocket knife (I used a hefty kitchen knife for years) stuff a blanket in there, strap a pillow (if you need one) onto your pack and head out. Oh yeah, maybe put on pants. Those help. Add any amenities you may think of (Your vice of choice, breakfast, toiletries, comfort shit) that'll fit, and get a move on!
