That's literally nothing. My property taxes in Texas is a few grand and I live in the city on less than a quarter acre of property.

What are you planning to do then?
Just an easy day hike? A hut tour? Multi day backpacking?

Busying equipment is usually not the first step you should do, especially not with the advice from a Tibetian woodcarving board.

Better define what you want to do, get some info on the essentials you'll need, check what you got already covered and then ask specific questions about gear that you might need.

>Rain jacket
>good insulation layer (fleece jacket, woolen cap)
>lighter and pocket knife
>a small torch

What jackets etc?It's about 8 celcius where i live and i think on the mountains it will be like 2-3 celcius.

I almost live on sea level.

I used to race in high school

I ski, but I don't really dig racing. I want to get more in to back country touring.

>>682821
Yep, national past time here, but like >>683138 I had enough of busy tourist resorts and and nowadays I only do touring.

What shoes do you currently have? If you have any running shoes they will work for walking. Pretty much any sneakers will work.

You don't need any special gear, just a backpack to hold some snacks, maybe an extra jacket, and water.

Don't get a baton, you don't need self-defense while /out/ting in Europe.

>>682395
All you really need for a one day trip is a bottle of water and a jacket

I'll cop to being a bit of a gear fag and have more than one of somethings, but I don't feel bad about it because I go /out/ a lot and everything I own gets used.

Everything gets dirty, nothing sits in the closet with the tags still on.

fucking sick

I have started looking into making my own sleeping bag.

Primaloft gear cost so much premade and living in Scotland makes down fill a bit risky.

Anyone else have experience making there own gear? I'm dreading trying to make baffles for the bag.

>>681537

Go-pro or the sony equivalent.

>>681537

jesus that fucking backup reg just dragging like that

>>682223
yea that was the first thing i noticed. all their backup regs are doing it.

OP. it all depends on where you are going and how deep. i think gopros are 3 atm rated they are the standard everyone uses now. there are pretty good sony cameras that will have higher resolution but i wouldn't trust them over an atmosphere. and back in the day i used to buy disposable cameras that were 1 atm rated at my dive shop, but i don't think they make disposable cameras anymore. and even if they did i don't know...

I'd probably go with a one man tent like soulo instead of staika, saving space and weight.

If you're gonna be moving around stealth camping, I would recommend an rei quarter dome.

>>682533
Bed roll. You literally just unroll it and get in. Especially nice for stealthing because it's easy to setup and take down in the dark.

>>681342
The big one would be the BWCA... if you haven't been there, go ASAP!

>>681342
>BWCAW
This. It is very highly regulated though. There's also a lot national forest land up north that's slightly less tightfisted.

Not a Minnesotafag, but I'm planning on passing through Superior National Forest and Voyageurs National Park this summer. I've heard the mosquitoes are numerous, but it can't be much worse than Alaska.

I was a Harmonica Hobo in the late 60's, early 70's. We were pretty famous and won a bunch of awards for playing harmonica, singing, and dressing like hobos
