Hey folks, I'm in the medium phase of preparing for vagabonding, and I had a couple questions about gear that each alone didn't merit their own post. Thank you for your insights! Right now, I have a fancy backpacker's packback with an internal metal frame, but I'm thinking about trying to find...

So this just happened. Sleeping soundly in my tent and I hear a commotion. I peek out and see a couple guys running by with cops on their ass. I think they got away but the cops came back to my spot and trashed everything, shredded my tent and tarps and took what they thought had value. Only...

I'm somewhat new so I've never gone out in the winter. I usually have a medium rucksack on my back but I'm gonna get a large alice pack so I can fit a bigger sleeping bag and whatever else to make me more comfortable this winter. I'm not sure what I could bring to make me warmer though. I have...
