lol... I usually go to my camp in the deep woods and always sleep outside by a fire unless it's raining. I have a telescope at my camp, i adore stargazing whilst in the midst of a good shroom trip.

You'd need to have EVERYTHING you're gonna need for the ENTIRE trip ready and easily available. For example: You wouldn't wanna have to go find a water source to filter during mid-trip. 
I do a lot of solo camping in central tx, but I've never felt comfortable enough to trip out there. I've brought the means to do so several times, but I usually end up not feeling up for it and toss my shrooms in the fire...everytime. lol In my experience, there are just too many things to do and keep track of...and too many things that could go wrong. But, ONE DAY...I hope to have the balls to do so.
A low dose might be tolerable, but I'm more of an "all the way or not at all" kind of consumer..

My only fear would be getting lost. Definitely bring someone with you or at least make sure someone close to you knows your plans and where you're going and when you plan on being back.

Yeah, good point.
@Niffla
Designate a "trip zone" and try your best to stay put. No matter how pretty the distant landscape is...

Can't I just leave a trail of peanut M&M's and then follow the trail back when I get lost?

I've tripped plenty of times primitive camping in the Adirondacks, with and without people, day and night. Always had great trips in that environment. I got a little spooked one of the times I was tripping alone at night though, a black bear decided to make its presence known and came within 30 yards of me but it seemed to back off when I threw another log on the fire.
Tripping on top of Blue Mountain during a nice clear day was wild.

It would be a little intimidating out there at night in the middle of all that vastness all alone.
And they got mountain lions out there too

Also forgot to mention, I had some French Canadians approach me asking if I had weed to sell them while tripping in the day with 2 friends up that way. They left us alone after about 15 minutes but the whole exchange was rather strange especially since we were so far off the beaten path. Something about those guys just didn't feel right

Niffla, Do it! camping out in the middle of nowhere alone is amazing! since its so far away and your a little apprehensive maybe go out there for few days early get all set up, get your barrings, become familiar with your camp and your surroundings. This is my favorite way to trip. If things start to get too intense or I start to lose contact with reality I get in my tent and curl up in my sleeping bag. As long as you plan everything, tripping in the wilderness is just as safe as at home. I think at least.
-------------------- I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

dude...I couldn't imagine seeing a bear approaching in the middle of a solo trip in the woods at night

imagine a grizzly bear rolling up on you, I think I'd legit shit my drawers and cry at the same time

I'm just glad it was only a black bear. Although, I have come across a mother with cubs hiking up there before, that was fucking terrifying.

Yeah I think this would be the best way -- get out there, set up and get comfortable with my surroundings...and then when I get comfortable & confident enough, prepare for take off

Prim camp is ALWAYS the best way to trip, no nothing for miles, sunset, stars, do it! Its not backpacking so take all the stuff you want to be comfortable.

I thought you lived in Detroit? Theres tons of nature out there
A few overnight trips will do you good. I havent tripped out in the wild, when I do the plan is not to wander around during the trip, if I want to go for a walk, stick to a simple trail and take no turns (like following the edge of a lake or river), mark the campsite well.
Digging holes isnt much of a hassle, idk why people trip about that.

I got a nice hammock for Christmas and I can't wait to go camping with it.
Should be perfect for minimal gear camping in warmer areas.
In fact with a rain cover and some nice insulation it might work in the cold/ wet too.
-------------------- Don't worry about me, I've got all that I need. And I'm singing my song to the sky You know how it feels, With the breeze of the sun in your eyes. Not minding that time's passing by I've got all and more, My smile, just as before. Is all that I carry with me I talk to myself, I need nobody else. I'm lost and I'm mine, yes I'm free

Sounds like the beginning of a Texas Massacre movie Niffla.
We hippie flip a lot when we camp on the coast for abalone diving trips. It's wild to free dive in the ocean the day after you tripped balls all night. My favorite spot has an ewok forest and a river in one direction then a bay tree grove and the beach in the other direction.

Yeah, bring a gun and/or a knife for protection. You're in Texas so I know you got a gun! (I'm from Ft. Wt.)

Why do you think you need protection while camping? What do you guys thinks gonna happen? I backpack a lot and people always ask if I bring a gun for protection, so It seems like a concern a lot of people have. When I say "no" they look at me like I'm insane. I just don't know why you'd need a gun unless your in grizzly bear country. Animals and psychopaths aren't just out there waiting to murder your ass.
