    'spider tom' at slab city

    Maybe this is an unnecessary post and feel free to delete or move if so. It was really cool to finally get to visit the Slabs and the only person who gave me any problems was this older fairly-cleancut guy calling himself Spider Tom, who first approached me when I was sitting down to smoke a...

    ABQ to Phoenix Routes Question

    So for the ABQ to Phoenix leg of my trip to CA - hitchhiking - I was thinking I'd stick to I-40, then take the I-17 south, because those seem like they'd have the most traffic since they're interstates. Now g00gle maps is telling me, that the shortest route is to leave I-40 when I get to...

    [boring planning thread]

    My first stop after tomorrow is to see a friend from school who moved out west, has a couch I can stay on for a few, then start hitchhiking south, making a long-belated arrival at slab city... Not sure how long I'm going to be traveling right now, want to put it on the table that for at least...

    Stealth camping Miami area? Also who the good wingnuts

    So I'm casually considering dropping $$ to go to a concert in freaking Miami, or seeing if I can get hired on as concert staff / work-trade my way in, in part because it is so completely Unlike Things I Ever Do and it would be a novel experience, in part because no less than four artists/acts...

    It is not hard to fake a screenshot.

    It is in fact very easy, firebug lets you type new text into a captured chat image, etc. To then treat one maybe-real screenshot as 'evidence' of a woman lying makes no sense. Meanwhile there are open threads that people keep starting as hookup/dating propositions... ::meh::

    Wilderness Responder/Search and Rescue experience?

    I've wanted to get Wilderness First Responder training for a while but the courses are **expensive** a.f.... Wondering if any Search And Rescue teams will train you if you volunteer with them? The ones I looked up around here (NH) seem to want you to be an EMT already, basically. Anybody ever...

    Short but epic Kentucky adventure

    So things were about to get pretty busy for me in New England, and I realized this might be my last chance to get out of the northeast for a while, so I decided to get down to Kentucky while I had the chance. First off, I had almost impossibly good luck hitchhiking. Made great time. And it was...

    Any extreme climbers here?

    Advice for madpeople in Philly?

    Hey, so a traveler friend of mine might be homeless in Philly soon. And uh, they're not in consensus reality, they're kinda perma-tripping, hearing things that scare them, talking to themself a lot. So if you know - where are safe(r) places to go, what are the shelters like, etc? I don't want...

    A long shot - French Canadians who picked me up hitching

    So I realize there's not much chance of me ever meeting these people again, but I feel the need to at least set this story down tonight and release it into the world. Last April, I was hitching up to Montpelier, after getting caught in a late snowstorm in upstate New York. A couple pulled over...

    Getting to Canada - emergency - no passport

    Shit's got really bad here and the only safe place left for me to go is in Quebec. I don't have the time to wait for a fucking passport card or the money to pay for expediting or whatever. People do this. I know people do this. Help me out. Don't care how I get there just need to go now.

    Uprooted, dreaming of the madlands

    Hi! I've been on the road since last fall, been doing farmwork at different homesteads as I go. Grew up in the northeast and I'm glad to be out of there now, in and out of college a couple times. Right now I'm in Tennessee. Looking for community. I'm into kayaking, rock climbing, comix, and...
