Hi /out/!

So lately I've joined an outdoorsy club at my university and I've fallen head over heels in love with it. Hiking trails, making bonfires, chopping wood, staring up at space in the wee hours...love every part of it.

I really want to get more into this and start doing more, but I've really struggled on finding a good resource that can give me the basics (i.e. what should I be carrying, what's a great budget knife, good beginner stuff to build with wood) Even the /out/ sticky is pretty bad, whatwith most of the relevant links being either 404s or generally unhelpful.

So is there a good guide online for this kind of thing?
