hey so i wore this pack until it fell apart and the zipper completely broke. when a friend hoooked me up with a new pack, and brother gave me a medical reserve pack, i saw an opportunity to keep mah beloved squirrel pack and went to work... small though it is, this pack carries...

Reposting this from Reddit/r/vagabond: Attention: looking for a theif. My friend Jesse Carlson was in a hitchhiker ride in Georgia , when he took a piss at the gas station, they drove away with his dog, gear and banjo. Happened an hour ago. The guys name is Seth, he is 28, and has a tattoo of...

Thought I'd share this whit you guys, if anybody's into hiking or being lightweight this is a great idea! Basically it's a Backpack - waterproof and all, with a build in Bivy to sprout right out its opening! Though a bit pricey I think it's a brilliant idea, and it's made by a traveller!

Okay so like I'm about to be homeless so I figure I might as well make the most of it. I'm gonna take what little money I have and book it. Problem is I'm not entirely sure what I should spend on and what I'll be okay with out. I already have a shitty tent and sleeping bag and a duffel bag I can...

Wow cant believe I didnt find this sooner. Really like the idea of it being light. http://bushcraftusa.com/forum/threads/diy-pvc-alice-pack-frame-for-3.51774/

I've been researching panniers to purchase and came across these high quality (and high priced) ones that convert into a backpack! They're made by https://www.pannierbackpacks.com in Colorado. I'm just trying to decide if I would ever need to quickly convert to backpack mode from bike touring mode.

Hey, you'll maybe know that i want to travel through asia for about a year. Can you recommand any? What should i do to be (more) save from thiefs and robbers? How big should it be? Thanks

My pack came in today and I'm curious what I can do about these orange straps. I'm really not interested in taking the time to Sharpie them. Would black RIT dye hold?

I just learned that LL Bean opened here in my town so I took my old ratty ass 65L pack to the store and asked to exchange it because the inside material was delaminating and the frame was missing a screw. Well the girl at the counter tried offering me $15 at first. I declined, and said I spent...

I'm still lugging around my old medium hellcat ALICE pack that @Bl3wbyyou kicked down to me two years ago. I'm looking into aftermarket frames now because the heavy ass frame on this thing takes it's toll on my back, but otherwise it's a perfect pack. I'm looking at this one right now...

So I'm housed up at my cousin's for a sec to do some work before going back to the desert and I found some weird shit in the family army surplus stock and am re-doing my setup. I'm not sure if I'm on some straight wingnut shit with this idea, but it's so damn comfortable I'm likely to stick with...

So I have this super fancy pack (thanks sis, for slaving away at MEC and getting me sweet deals and free shit), and it's got lots of fun stuff like pockets and zippers and good back support for my broken back and all that. Problem is, it looks fancy as fuck, and it does not get dirty, I don't...

So its looking like June first I'm heading out to travel, I plan on traveling at least 6 months to a year. Bought a Medium Alice pack with frame bc my large Alice pack got lost over the years when moving. I've been packing items from around the house I feel May be useful as I find em. So far I...

I spent all last month hitchhiking across the US. I made this video in order to share my experience regarding everything I took along, in hopes of helping others who plan on doing similar hitchhiking trips.

Okay, so my backpack has been like this for a while now, but I finally got annoyed and decided to try and fix it, but I have no idea how... the top pouch is way too much to the front, leaving my main pouch exposed to rain etc. But the adjustment straps are as tight as can be. Both front and back...

Stopped in my home town for a bit after I wrecked my car. Now that I'm back on foot I have to find myself something better than a rucksack with a couple of tied-on straps I salvaged from a pack rotting near a yard. Army surplus here wants $60 for an ALICE without a frame, $100 with frame. The...

http://3mules.com He's striving for change and a little leeway of movement in our closed off mindless slave America. To even sleep somewhere, with respect and cleanliness as he does, still doesn't suffice. Look at his site and see how many convictions this poor old guy has to suffer due to...

this thread goes out to all the ladies out there! i'm writing section of the StP book about what kinds of clothes to take on your travels, and while i have the guy stuff easily covered, i'd like to include a few tips for the ladies who will be reading the book. so what i'm wondering is, what are...

Hello everybody, Recently I posted a DIY backpack project (Linyera Backpack Project) and been traveling around with it successfully. Now im stayin for long in Oslo and decided to make a new version with what I have learned. Considering that I got now a sewing machine and loads of recycled...
