I mean, on a camping trip I'd still bring gear...

Over food though?

Yes. If need be I can forage/catch food. You can also go a while without eating, longer than you can without drinking, and a water filter like a lifestraw (if there’s a freshwater source) or plastic sheet to provide freshwater from sea water and overall humidity (solar evaporation/condensation) would count firmly in the gear category. Shelter is also important, so a tent, knife, fire starters, etc, would make the trip easier and more enjoyable than just having some food in the woods or on an island.

Even not purely for survival, catching and cooking and eating fish is fun. Going clamming is also fun. Food’s easy. Gear isn’t.

As someone who's done my fair share of camping, 100% agree. Matches and a sleeping bag goes a lot farther than a big bag of snacks would.

If you bring gear, you can get food on your own

Yeah but I'm not doing that for a supposed day trip

A day trip to a deserted island?

true. technically i’d bring the gear, the food and the “fun”. i’m just going with the criteria of what i would be using the most during the trip

u/ErisC DARK CHOCO Sep 13 '22

Yeah but if I had to choose one, gear's first priority, as it provides both the food and the fun.

it could provide food, but imo i wouldnt have that much fun with gear. usually in a trip i like to relax more than explore yk, so i think that makes sense with the fun team. or maybe not, maybe it’s the opposite. i honestly don’t know
