Thanks! I’m trying to make an effort to get out often.
Have been quite the Hermit for too long.

Looks like a great outing
these threads are really making me want to head out in kit, something I haven't done since September, I've been far to busy

If anyone ever asks me I usually say I'm testing kit for Historical trekking, most people you meet haven't enough knowledge to be able to tell otherwise, they usually say "that's interesting" and loose interest, that said, a lot of people don't ask and just give me a funny look and I've only had someone appear genuinely interested once

That’s a good one to use. You’re right most people, especially out in the woods, would probably bare no mind at all. Now I just have to find a place secluded enough to practice my archery skills in full gear

WOW! What a beautiful locale! Absolutely enchanting! I would want to be out in it all the time if I lived near such fantastical environs! Our environment can be very beautiful here in CO, but it lacks that otherworldly quality of a really damp, lush forest.

Thanks! Indeed it does look otherworldly and was quite damp, made for a great tracking experience though. Lots of deer sign and raccoon tracks. Also picked up on a large cat of some kind, I’m guessing mountain lion considering the location but didn’t want to find out
Colorado is a beautiful place for sure! Never did make it out into the forests there. Only visited for snowboarding.
My favorite place for the fern forests will always be Washington state. As a kid running around there, the fern was so dense and tall you could crawl under it and not be seen!

Washington state forests are beautiful indeed. They seem ancient.

Definitely. There’s a really awesome place there, I think it’s called Hoh Forest? Either way it reminds me of what would be Fangorn

Only brought the cloak on the outing from today but figured it’d be cool to post up a photo finally of being out and about myself

Thanks Greg! Indeed I do and many unexplored places yet to see.
Having this forum to gain knowledge from and seeing how active the members are definitely motivates me to get out and venture
