I started thinking about doing a solitude trip. So far I've been doing summit hikes. These tend to be around other people (who are generally the best people you'll meet but still a crowd). But mid-week in a less popular area I bet I could hide from the world for days and see only trees and birds and just sit quietly in the woods.

I grew up car camping. It took until my 30s to realize one can get out in the woods and be entirely alone. I'm a fan.
