Actually, that is what I do, and it's not busy work at all. I like to take a look at my first aid kit and figure what I need to put in while watching man vs. wild or mantracker, I think it's fun!! I also collect flashlights, so when it's night time I turn off all the lights in the house just to play around with it. I signed up for this to read about ppls trips. And it's great. I'm only missing, the going out there part, which is the whole reason for this. hehahah
I guess I should have also put in the fact that I don't have a car, so that's why I would have to depend on others for transportation. I live 20 miles from any known trail. None of my friends like hiking. I would love to meet ppl online, like those websites where you can meet ppl who do what you do, but my mom won't allow that.
Here in vegas, i'd have to drive out far to enjoy any view, otherwise i would just get a view of the strip, which is Boring!! I prefer looking out in to the far and seeing nothing but trees, mountains, and the sky.
