Title: Don't read this, just go outside instead
Review: This magazine clearly exists mostly to convince you to buy gear. If you're into backpacking, it's easy to get hung up on gear choices, and that can interfere with your enjoyment of the activity. Stop worrying about it, and don't listen to Backpacker Magazine, and just go outside instead. You don't need all that junk. They do have a lot of recommendations for destinations, but with this newfangled invention called The Internet you can find all kinds of information about destinations. They also have lots of "tips" for backpacking and camping; few are useful, some are obvious, and a handful are just dumb, bad ideas. Don't bother with Backpacker.
