I don’t have any specific advice but AllTrails works well enough for my local trails

A lot of the campgrounds here have tent areas that are separate from the main campground and usually wooded, it’s usually pretty quiet and pleasant.

Pennywise the Frown posted:My main limitation is... I have no idea how to go backpacking. Not sure where to go in my area or more importantly who to talk to about setting it up, paying, whatever I have to do. I'm kinda crippled by the anxiety and decision making of just figuring out how to do this. I really wish I knew someone who has done this before that I could go with. No one I know likes doing outdoor stuff. Mileage may vary by region, but the two biggest tools I use for finding and getting info about hikes are alltrails and Facebook groups AllTrails will let you search for hikes based on distance from home, difficulty and and handful of other criteria, and here there is always someone that has posted a recent condition report in the comments. If you can find a local hiking group on Facebook that makes a huge difference too. The ones here are super active and have people posting about their hikes and (pre-COVID) people looking for group hikes. It’s also a really easy place to ask questions about trail conditions or gear or whatever and have other local hikers chime in.

I worry more about moose than bears. If you’re making noise, 9/10 bears will go the other way before you see them. Moose will stand there and stare you down while they decide if they want to stomp on you.

I did the ridge line above april bowl in clouds like that last month, it's always a really cool effect

padijun posted:Are you familiar with any other hikes up in Hatcher pass? April bowl looks cool but I’d like to make a day of it if I drive up there I'm a huge fan of archangel valley. Reed lakes, skyscraper are both good. You can also do a traverse from hatch peak to government peak. Bomber is cool there's just so much out there

Bottom Liner posted:Sure, what are you curious about? Biggest thing is what lens are you using on those big scenery shots. Also, generally curious about what you do in post

Thank you!Bottom Liner posted:I did some panoramas for the really wide shots. Was wondering if that was the case. quote:Hard lesson I've had to face lately is that high end glass really makes a big difference in non-optimal conditions. The color and contrast you get out of these lenses is really worth the weight and size difference. I used to rent nicer lenses on occasion, and yeah, it definitely makes a difference. There's no-where near me that rents equipment now though.

Can anyone speak to camping in central oregon? I've got a couple trips planned and am new to the region. Biggest question I have is that I'm intending to do my first overnight with a hammock and am really curious about the bug situation. I'm used to dealing with really bad mosquitos, but all the day trips I've done here there have been almost zero bugs.
