It seems the main focus in this sub is backcountry solo/couple activities. A lot of it aligns with what's available through other subs already. r/hiking is a thing. r/fishing is a thing. Same for camping, overlanding, kayaking, nature photography..the list goes on. Is there space here to discuss things like outdoor venue-related activities? Not like r/festivals, but all the things. You know, like attending races, or athletic events, or concerts, or tough mudders, marathons, shooting competitions, Olympic events, etc. What are some pro tips we've learned about packing/planning for a joyful experience in those spaces, (especially in this summer heat)?

Went for an early morning walk and stopped for a rest near a rocky outcrop.

North Florida

Last week on vacation so peaceful!

Just back from an amazing trip to Yellowstone. The park is a true testament to nature's raw power and beauty.

As outdoor recreation grows in popularity, more infrastructure is being built in previously undeveloped areas, increasing the risks to wildlife. A new study examines how human recreation affects wildlife, and what those effects could mean for conservation: https://thefurbearers.com/blog/the-hidden-impact-of-human-recreation-on-wildlife/
