Primitive camping (and then tripping) 2

Any of y'all ever do it? And by primitive camping I mean camping off the beaten path.
Man I would love to do it dosed on some L...but I'm not exactly an experienced camper, and these days I'm pretty short on trip partners. Short as in zero.
One of my dreams is to drive over to deep west Texas into Big Bend country (reason is, Big Bend is the closest National Park to me, and it's still some nine hours away via car) and camp and trip.
So I was just wondering how many of you guys (and gals) have ever done such a thing.

Its fantastic. Brign food TONs of water, chairs cards, fire gathering tools everyt5hing you need. Bring it. And have fun and kick it. Get a cozy tent. Wherever you [put your tent, make a giant pillow of pine needles on the dirt, and put the tent on the pine needles. Way better than soild groun.d

The chisos mountains in big bend is one of my favorite places in the world! I would also love to trip there one day. I would do it in the spring before it gets to hot. Don't eat more then you can handle and make sure you have everything you could possibly need! Also don't do anything that would draw in attention from law enforcement. Lots of cops out that way! Make sure you stay in the chisos mountains though. So beautiful. It can get cold at night so be ready for that

It's amazing until day 4 or so . Try digging your own shit holes on an ecstasy and acid hangover . Also go in the right month and dress properly. Especially going primitive. Also Start a fire before the acid and make it TENDABLE on acid.

I want to, but I really need to get some experience first. I gotta be confident in my solo camping ability before I just stroll out to the middle of Big Bend country dosed on L, lol.
I need to get all the necessary gear, and then go on a couple of test runs, you know, camp out solo and then maybe explore/scout some good areas to set up...and then maybe eventually I'll do it.

Just out of curiosity what would you need to learn? Youre bringing a tent and food right? Starting fire with the right tools is easy, you can practice that anywhere

Lol I mean I know it's not exactly rocket science, but I've never solo camped in my life. And while solo camping in and of itself is nothing to worry about when it comes to your average camp out on a campground, which anybody could do, my thing is, remote solo camping in the vastness of a national park and desert...which is an entirely different level of camping.
I've literally been camping once in the past five years...and that was with a homie. It just seems like it wouldn't be the smartest thing in the world for me just to be in the middle of the west Texas desert mountains, on LSD, and camping solo for the first time in my natural life, lol.
I was just thinking maybe I should go camp there solo (LSD free) and get a feel for it first...

Honestly sounds like a solid plan to me. If I were to try it I'd get firmiliar with the area first . What would you need to learn on a solo trip like that? Answer: the area . I've gotten lost in the desert on acid and even sober. Quote:

Maybe I'm a weenie, but I've camped a bunch and still wouldnt go primitive camping on L alone. Really for a lot of reasons. If for any reason at all, something happens, you gotta fend for yourself, which I could do sober, but not on L. On top of that I just dont think I'm comfortable tripping alone in a completely unfamiliar location. My house, sure, a festival, absolutely, but not in the middle of nowhere. If I lived in texas I'd go with ya Niffla. I've been meaning to do this for a while, just cant ever seem to find the time cause all my friends and I work weekends. But yea, I'd just rather go with a friend. If I'm at my house with lots of stuff, I can keep myself busy, but I think I'd get lonely out there alone.
Realistically though, there isnt much to know. Bring food and water, setup a tent and fire, and your basically good

Yeah dude, every year I read about people who get lost in the vastness of national parks (mostly hikers), many of which aren't located until it's too late. I've been out to Big Bend once and it's extremely vast, and get too far off the beaten path, yeah, it wouldn't be that far fetched at all to get lost.
Anyway ST, damn, I bet that was some surreal shit getting lost out in the desert on some L. How long were you lost for?

That shit could definitely get lonely as fuck, lol. Out there all alone, just me to myself and my LSD soaked perception -- completely cut off. No friend(s), no phone, no internet. Which is kind of a great allure at the same time, but could also be a little (or even a lot) intimidating out there among all that vastness. I've always wondered what I would do out there all alone, tripping my face off.
And you're right, if something happens way out there...God forbid, you'd be in quite the quandary.

I wish I lived closer to a national park. Like within an hour of one. Then I'd have zero fear, I think. But being out there, 9-ish hours away from home, and in the middle of nowhere...and obviously you ain't getting any cell phone reception in remote areas like this -- nothing better go wrong, because if it does...you be fucked.

I'm about to watch this dude and see what kinda knowledge he can drop on me
hopefully he has a part on what to do when you're all alone and your reality is melting because of the 2 and a half blotters you just ate and you're in a sheer state of panic because a mountain lion that's actually a possum is stalking you

Hell yeah, tripping in the wilderness is the best. I have done it many times. Especially on the Summer Solstice, only missed it one time in the last 14 years.

Sleeping in a tent is horrifying in my opinion. You can't see out of it and it's just a thin cloth. If you're tripping you'll either end up sleeping outside the tent or in your locked car.
Last time I went camping I had to open a can of beans with a hammer.

Ya last time I camped and tripped I felt very exposed to alien abduction/ big foot/ the watchers/ human rapists and got pretty scared. Tents provide zero protection and you cant see shit while youre in one so you wouldnt know about any intruders until they were on top of you.

I prefer tripping first and then attempting to set up camp, starting, a fire, looking for food, ect; and instead finding myself lost miles away from camp, fading in and out of conciousness, covered in bruises and abrasions, dehydrated and naked, with a pinecone up my ass. It's quite exhilerating.

Ephesians 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Psalm 12:6 The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. Hebrews 11:3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear. Revelation 3:11 Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.
