I've been planning on upgrading my tent for some time, likely to the duplex...just haven't landed on the color. Have discussed that here before.... Just didn't want camo for sure....
but
I have been thinking of this idea for a number of years now...and then watching a video on youtube by KennethKramm, he used a term that summed up my thoughts exactly
Leave no trace, BE no trace
now I have no leave no trace obsession...I actually think the term is over used and perhaps even misused very often...but I do believe in the general idea.
The Be No Trace component is the twist.
Kinda like most folks don't want their neighbor to paint his house neon purple, I think it makes sense to be considerate of others in the area while you are camping. Keep the loud noises down, loud music, or whatever taht may be disturbing to others...but also regarding teh visual landscape.
I figure if I enjoyed the natural view hiking in, others passing through while I'm there should be able to also enjoy it without too much distraction of my "stuff" strewn about....
so.....maybe a camo tent isn't such a bad idea...
Anyway, Just sharing a thought.....
