How many Karens are in charge of spending money on backpacking gear? Some mothers of boy scouts and that’s it?

No man, there are millions of grown ass adults like me who backpack any chance we get. I prefer getting 20 miles out where there is no cel, no light or noise pollution, and no other humans, just wandering around alone and making camp wherever i want.

Its magical. Especially late at night in a storm under my tarp, all snug and warm in my hammock. The hardest part is getting up in the morning. I usually have my coffee and oats before i even get out of the hammy.

Lots of karens in the backpacking community. Mostly not attractive, pudgy, short hair. But there are some cute ones every so often, and some really cool ones. But they tend to be progressive types for the most part. Thats why i stay off popular trails, too many hard core granola munchers.

Oh that’s what I was confused about. Didn’t think there would be many Karens directly involved.
