living of the land is alittle extreme for me. I enjoy being in the back country as well but i like to keep it on designated trails with a pack of food and emergency supplies. i looked at your list and a tent and sleeping bag would be something that i would diffenetly carry. If you dont want a tent you can carry a emergency bivy and sleep in it but i like the comfort of my tent, plus you can hotbox lol. just keep your supplies light try to buy things they hae multiple functions. you may have to spend extra doe to get the lighter stuff but your feet and back will thank you. also plenty of energy bars and a couple simple soup supplies make the experience much better

forgot to mention i started a thread hiking stoned. check it out share some info

Eliot The plan: To journey deep into the wilderness with only as much gear as can be carried on my back, and the skills I can keep in my head. There is no time limit. I will return when I feel the need to return. I will be leaving sometime next year, after winter has ended. I have until then to prepare. Destination: Rating: 5
