  • It’s a meme but you just tickled my autism.

    It gets better with every single trip. I remember my first wilderness backpacking. Horrible. No sleep. Anxiety. Sun stroke.

    Hundreds of trips later I sleep out of my backpack than I do in my apartment in the city. Every time you go out you dial in your gear and strategy a little more.

    The thing I hate the most is not being clean which is why I don’t usually do more than 3 nights out there alone anymore. After several days of sweating I just stop having any sort of fun. And I’m a wimp for cold water and have no idea how these people are jumping into alpine lakes.

    That said, though, I like your meme because it discourages other people to try it. It’s hard enough to get permits for certain trails!

    In prince george they did this like 3 years ago. Gave a huge chunk of forest back to natives. They clearcut it that summer. You can easily see the scar on satellite view. Under capitalism, all humans will exploit nature if they have the technology to do so and race means nothing.

    As someone with a similar goal that I actually think I will achieve, that land will hopefully never leave my family and be protected forever. We already own two huge chunks of land on the eastern slopes of the rockies which used to be cleared for cattle and is currently regrowing.
