When I was in my 20's tent and sleeping bag is all I needed... now just add a air mattress and bigger tent. 100 bucks more... still cheap.

Exactly! My biggest camping expense back in my 20s was for beer and gas.Goduckies said:When I was in my 20's tent and sleeping bag is all I needed... now just add a air mattress and bigger tent. 100 bucks more... still cheap.

National Parks need more strip clubs is the TL/DR.Doog_de_Jour said:My eyes rolled so much that they nearly popped out of my head. Are people that brainwashed by REI into thinking that you need expensive gear to camp?
Now, I do think there are barriers for other outdoor pursuits (mountain climbing for example) based on costs. From my understanding that is a much more expensive activity.
I came across this article from National Geographic that’s quite good and does a nice job explaining why National Parks are mostly visited by white people and what is being done to change things:

More of those would help, but I doubt you’ll be able to improve upon the one at the Grand Teton National Park.NorthwestFresh said:

My wife took up hiking once. Closets of husky football gear errr REI stuff -
Black people cant swim. They are like cats.

The logic is awesome.
1) camping is expensive
2) blacks are poor and dumb
3) blacks want to camp, but can't
Who are these people that have this thought process? -
Why do black people let the racist left get away with constantly denigrating them? 90+% will vote for a party which demands they stay on the RAT plantation.

$1000.00 plus cell phones and $300.00 sneakers are no problem how can a tent and a sleeping bag be too expensive?
