Are you more of a camper/bushcrafter or a hiker/backpacker?

imma hiker/bushcrafter
Bushcrafter is the superior option
>>726596
I come here for the permaculture threads.
So, how many people here that vote "bushcraft" only walk out into the nearest woods with their mora and hack at shit for a few hours before returning home?
>>726596
Shitposting is the best option!
Actually i'm just new to the serious /out/ stuff and i use this board for information. next week i want to travel ~80 km's by foot and i'm prepping at the moment
>>726634
All of them. Except they don't have Moras, they have batoning knives.
Definitely hiker/backpacker. I know a few wild foods and basic shit like firelighting, but I can't carve spoons or build a Vietcong tunnel using twigs

Kek
>>726634
voted bushcraft. can confirm this statement is 100% tru 100% of the time, i bring atleast 3 different kinds of moras with me but an important detail is that you make sure only to hack at green living plants/trees, that way they die and you can build more emergency shelters in the future.
No trail running? Am i a meme?
>>726596
$50 says toblab and pepsi voted for the shitposting one twice
Voted bushcraft even though i don't really consider myself that i.e i don't go live in the woods for months i usually go there for the day or ocasionaly for an overnighter or 3 days and i do carve spoons but i don't do half of what uncle Ray does
>>726596
I am a lurker
>>726596
I do like 90% of my outings above the treeline so materials for base-building are kind of limited, which is a shame since I would like to do it more.
Planning an overnighter in the woods sometimes the next few weeks with some friends though, so I'll probably take the opportunity to build something basic then.

This video gives me a semi for several reasons

Ultra-Light Backpacker here. You'd get x10 more votes speedy quick (just like the ethos of UL) if you list it in your poll.
>camper/bushcrafter
>hiker/backpacker
Neither.
>>726596
Camper/Hiker/Just getting into bushcraft and I'm loving it so far. Really makes you appreciate nature a lot more.
>>726596
Both, dependening on where. Most places where I camp, there is no trail. And most places I hike, it's for the scenery. Bushcrafting live trees and bushes when you do not require it for survivial is just selfish, especially close to trails. Just like littering anywhere.
>>726634
bushcrafter have to start somewhere
>>726840
when was the last time you actually saw more than a blur while out?
>>726634
I'm a hiker and so I need at least a 95 litre pack to carry my jetboil, 10 fuel canisters, pillow, teddy bear, full kitchen set, spices, titanium spork, extra blankies and titanium carabiners (because I don't know how to tie any knots lol) when I go out for the afternoon.
I guess I'm more of a camper/bushcrafter although I'd never call myself that. For me it's not about the miles, it's more about finding a comfy spot, setting up camp, exploring the area with a day pack and then heading back to camp just before nightfall. Next day I strike camp, move on to the next comfy spot, then repeat.
While I'm exploring I might do a bit of hobo fishing, take some photos, do some writing, carve, or have a swim. Shit like that basically. Almost always go alone, not many of my friends are /out as I've only recently gotten into it myself.
>backpacker
>spending your time on /out/ instead of >>>/trv/
>>726825
You are just a higher form than we can comprehend
>>726832
Not anymore you are
>>726634
guilty! i tend to just hike like 3-4km to some nice woods and cook food and make fire and sometimes do some carving
>>727241
When I had to stop when a flock of tortoises with 80L packs got up from camp and intergrated into the trail just as I was speeding by. I had to wait 10 hours for them to walk a mile to their next camp site.
>>726596
I was about to say "Neither, I just shitpost" but you had that covered. Good job OP.
>>727449
I tried to vote twice for shitposting but it wouldn't let me.
>>726634
I picked shitposting, but when I do go out and do "bushcrafting" that is exactly what I do. There is nowhere good to go /out/ in northwest Indiana.
>>726596
Not hiker/climber/mountaineer option?
>>727246
I'm a hiker and I use a 22L pack 95% of the time
>>728027
But how much do your pack mules carry?
4 wheeler camper.
>>728058
So, neither.
>>727437
And you couldn't go around them because that's not the UL-way. Fucking get some boots..
I prefer hunting/fishing. I would never use the word bushcraft in real life or online unless I was being sarcastic.
>>726828
You owe me $50 homeboy. Didn't even vote on it.
>>728440
Idk why I get random names now.
