I made a new friend, and reconnected with an old flame, and probably toasted a thousand calories on a 10 mile trek into the wilderness. School fricking sucks, but with hikes like these, I'm sure it'll all be worthwhile.

Sounds like you had some sort of manic episode, at least you got laid ig
>NOOOOO humans and animals can't naturally experience temporary changes in mood, it has to be a clinical condition!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>hikes out to the middle of nowhere at night with just a water bottle with no plan how to return to safety
Totally normal sane shut in student behavior
>Y-you were tired of sitting for days and needed to get out in the mountains?? Are you crazy? You could have died !!
>has to rely on a random hermit living on a mountain to drive him to a road
>has to call his ex to pick him up from there
Ah yes extremely balanced and sane person actions, totally not impulsive manic behavior
What believing in psychology does to a mf
not reading that

>Early 20's uni student
Whatever you had to say wasn't worth anything anyways
>go out on foot
>no path for walking so get hit by a car
>breathe in exhaust
>bums and Hispanic panhandlers attack you
Ahh, the american life...
All the time.
Based, is picrel Mangerton in Ireland Anon? I’ve climbed it, shit is kino
U picked a degree that u aren't truly interested in and will be progressively miserbale. Living vicariously through ur future children is the best u can hope for.
Thank God I graduated in EE, don't need breaks when u love ur job..
I would've been out there today but I did something to my knee (I think it's my IT band) so I can't go hiking for a couple weeks.

Cringe
is there a website to find good trails?
problem atm for me is that i live in a really flat area of the uk. would take an hours drive just to get anywhere worth walking that isn't a flat, boring field.
You mean like alltrails?
>UK
I'd say something like alltrails but I've only used it in the states. My state has its own trail work/hike finding site which is great.
It apparently has stuff for the UK. I think users can upload new trails.
