The San Francisco bay area has a lot of camping opportunities. This is Mt Diablo at the day i arrived.


It got real foggy, real cold, really quick during the night.



Still foggy as poo poo the next morning


Oh did I mention it was my first camping trip ever? It was actually fun!

Good!
I'm glad this is getting more people camping! (Assuming you went because of this?

More people camping is good no matter what.)

Negative, this camping trip was before the manga for this show even existed. I blame firewatch instead.

I have been on a backpacking camp bend lately and I am a sleeping bag and a sleeping pad away from having my ideal lightweight beackpack, but that would set me back $500 :shepspends:
Not to mention I am moving to Oregon later this summer, so I may have to get cold weather gear :shepspends::shepspends:
On the plus side I can learn how to hunt Deer and fish, oh wait gotta have to buy gear for that :shepspends::shepspends::shepspends:

Also if you ever go camping in a place that doesnt allow you to gather wood to burn, may i recomend ESBIT cube folding stoves?
They come in small

and very small


Also the cubes themselves make for good kindling. Downside is that they have a horrible fishy smell.

I consulted a dog and in his opinion you should never take a dog camping.


Tents are really scary. You get panicky inside them.


Campfires are also scary but you can't avoid them because there's usually food nearby.


The stairs going up to bird watching towers are, like, totally different from other stairs.


On the plus side, you can often find many muddy ditches to dive in for no discernable reason.

Every tent is pretty cold. They're for keeping the rain off, not insulation.

Keeping warm comes from the Cot (keeping you of the ground, but optional), air mattress (insulating you from the ground) and finally the sleeping bag (keeping heat and air in but wicking moisture out). Base layers also help.

I should watch this.

That being said I cannot possibly sleep in a tent overnight.

I suffer from sleep paralysis, let me tell you its loving terrifying waking up in the middle of the night feeling something sniffing your tent and being unable to move or do anything.

Went camping with some friends at Lake Cachuma near Santa Barbara. Its the off season so the site wasn't very crowded and we picked out a nice spot with a keyhole view of the lake.



It was really pretty.

The best way to have a fire is to marry someone who loves fire as much as you.

I don't necessarily like fires as much as I like a hot breakfast

so I guess I need to marry someone that loves a hot breakfast, preferably pancakes or scrambled eggs


el dorito posted:

also coffee

She is a former-Mormon turned vegan and yet she will cook pancakes and eggs for me.

She drinks decaf, but nobody is perfect.

You should go camping imo

We actually went camping early march on coastal Washington, we lifted camp in the middle of the night because i was not prepared for how loving cold it got and my poor dog was trembling real bad.

We are planning on camping later in the year though.
