None of those masks actually filter anything other than maybe some bugs from your face. If they did then you would need to be replacing a surgical filter from them after 4 hours of full use or 12 hours after any partial use.

What you should really consider is how to keep yourself from getting road rage and getting into a fight at the stop lights.

You will likely be somewhere without the loluneconomic bike lanes so you will occupy a whole lane like a car does.

Many motorists don't understand why you might need that and that it is in fact 100% legal and recommended instead of going on sidewalks or veering between lanes. They will honk at you and some might swear.

Unless you bike through the industrial human-farm tier areas of China or India, then you have no reason to use such a mask for going to work or school.

If you want a mask, use a surgical mask like those you see in China/Japan or learn to wrap a cloth to cover your face.

They'll help just as much as what you posted, unless you go all out for military grade few hundred dollar gas masks that will actually get you arrested or stopped in every single relevant country.

I've lived in South Florida most of my life. The beaches are nice. There are a lot of places that make for nice vacation spots, especially on the keys. As far as living: no state income tax, lax gun control, no real labor/union protection laws. It's a mixed bag, but I'd say it's not bad overall.

a friend told me about one while we were passing by, now that i think of it it reminded me we were on a sc/out/ competition

it's on a local hill, on top of an old tower that was supposedly used for something about ski jumping, not sure

to get to it, you actually have to jump from ledge to ledge and risk serious injury, even death for fuck's sakes

i know this probably isn't the most dangerous one because there are some in really small caves for spelunkers but it's still pretty crazy, for freerunners or climbers

Most tents are window licking retard simple to put up. If you need help you can always just read the instructions that come with them. Doing it solo might take some time, put it all depends on how big of a tent you have.

It depends on the situation OP. For me, the tent should be small(even smaller than that), easily camouflaged and set up/tore down. Those are my priorities since I'm usually in wood patches near roads with my bicycle.

The lack of freestanding in here has me thinking you guys are casual faggots who never actually use your tents.

When travelling, there will be many times when the optimal place to setup your tent has too hard a surface to get a lot of stakes in. You'll wind up taking that tarptent down into a soggy ditch which will get filled with rainwater overnight, while I'll be perched on the hill wherever the fuck I choose.

Hey /out/. I just turned 18 and have been wanting to do this for awhile now.
I want to go backpacking across the country because I'm itching for adventure and want to step out of both my comfort zone and my monotonous lifestyle. Also because my mother can't support my neet ass and I don't want to get a job at this young age, becoming a wage slave.
Anyway, let's say I have a budget of around 300 dollars. Maybe more, maybe less.
What do I buy? I'm thinking I would just get milsurp shit since they're pretty sturdy, and I'm on a budget. What would you guys recommend?
>Backpack
>Jacket/parka
>Boots
>Knife
>Sleeping bag
>And other must-have supplies
I've done research, but any general tips on backpacking, hitch hiking, train-hopping, and other useful advice to help me on my journey would be appreciated.
ALSO, should I try to group up with another person? I was thinking a gril, since they have tits, thus making it easier to hitch hike. Where would I go about finding other people interested in the same idea?
thx gais.

Hiking any country is fucking dangerous. Don't matter if you stick to wilderness or urban. I'm fairly sure you're not gonna be able to string together a walk through a state/country and only pass through nice neighborhoods/well maintained woodlands, so you'll meet some pissed of animals, some pissed of gang bangers, some pissed of druggies and some pissed of thieves. Don't claim you're Canadian/British/French/Australian and this shit doesn't happen in your country cause it happens everywhere there are people whether you want to believe it or not

Hey /out/landers

I'm looking at getting a new rucksack for my travels. Mostly I'll be traversing jungles of the urban kind so perhaps this is a factor.

I was looking at this one which is in my price range but I thought I'd ask you guys for your opinion

I remember in my young scouting days when we did a hike throughout a forest in the middle of night. I must admit, it feels awful lonely and strange sometimes, there's a sense of uneasiness. Probably because I was a kid at the time, just ignore those feelings of uneasiness and just enjoy being outside at night. If you plan to walk at night make sure you know where you're going. It's easy to get disorientated.

Explore. I get to know the area, and find all of the cool hidden places. Through tracking and stalking, I get to know the animals that live in there. The longest I've spent in one campsite was a month on Malone Bay, Isle Royale. By the end of the month, I felt like I was a native.

Go hiking around the area and get to know it. Learn to identify the plants. If it's in a place with enough trees, make something. Want a better place to sit? Find some straight poles and put them to good use. Camping next to a creek? Sounds like an opportunity for improvement, pic related. Get to know the local geology. Track animals.

If you're really worried about having too much downtime, you could always fish for your dinner.

Posting here because halfchan is failing at one of the simplest of tasks for an imageboard, posting (go figure). Here's the thread on half: https://boards.4chan.org/out/thread/450933/

Now, I'm connotating the term "urban exploration" to mean NOT just abandoned areas, but an entire city.

Take Boston, for example.
I will likely in the future have the opportunity to return there, the first time I visited it was for about 3 days. The freedom of the city (never used a subway before, good walkability, etc.) blew me away and gave me an idea for if I were ever to return: to go around the city with little to nothing on me.

Of course, I'd have residence there, but while exploring the city (probably on average 6+ hours at a time) I was thinking of the following to carry:
Flip phone
Light watch and hoodie
(Possibly) a camera

The carry is light to minimize loss in the case I were to get mugged/robbed. No weapons are in the carry because evasion is my best bet if I were to build up my endurance (mentioned on the half thread)

I'm sure there's more to it than just that. Has anyone else done something similar? Feel free to nitpick at parts of the idea that may not work— I'm open to criticism.

Urban exploration definitely counts as /out/. You learn so much about the culture of a city and its residents that way. In turn, you learn about being a human.

Hello /out/, I was wondering how many of you here have plans for homesteading, or self sufficiency? basically like a long term version of going innawoods or bug out bag, it is being able to provide for yourself over a very long period of time.

Skills required to do so among many would be farming, animal husbandry, hunting, fishing, trapping, and maybe a small textile place where you can make your own clothes.

The point of going through with all this is I want to live outside of the US in a random country in the middle of nowhere, far far away from the US when it does collapse. I was wondering if anyone else had plans like this, how they are preparing themselves, and id just like to get to know people with the same idea I have. thanks.

OP are you still there? I recommend reading, "The knowledge: how to rebuild our world from scratch" by Lewis Dartnell.

I remember seeing one and being floored at how vibrantly green it was. I didn't know what sort of insect it was at the time. I recall it very well - it acted very shy, and moved very cautiously around me, in a way I had never seen an insect act. I regret not being able to smash it.

Hey lads, its getting to be that time of year again. What have you got planned for your gardens this year? I'm doing potatoes, onions, carrots, cherry tomatoes, garlic, basil, parsley, and oregano on my porch. I have an upside down hanger for the cherry tomatoes and I found a new setup for the potatoes where you use a bamboo cage around the plant and fill it with hay instead of burying the potatoes with dirt as they grow. Pic related. Do any of you have any funky planters you plan on using this year?

thats a lot. I dug up a square thats pretty big in my backyard, my dad and I are kind of both involved in it.

its kind of annoying you have to plant some vegetables within like a few weeks out of the year if you want them to grow, makes gardening take forever to learn.
