Bu certainly, this is only one man’s 
advice—based though it is on scores 
of thousands of miles of travel, and 
wayside campfire talks, and back-home 
exchange of experiences with all kinds 
of wanderers, from itinerant loggers on 
a spring drive to hoboes at a railroad 
terminal, from clubeamp sportsmen to 
touring camp trip and transcontinental 
wayfarers. My own exact method of 
pre-vision may not serve another trav- 
eler at all; and I am aware that a good 
many genuinely successful travelers de- 
pend on the day-to-day impressions, 
without foresight, for their best ex- 
periences. Only I absolutely do know 
that vagueness of intention and care- 
lessness of observation and ignorance 
of opportunity prohibit the tourist, no 
matter of what kind, from making the 
best, and also the most, of his chances. 
A man cannot even rest his mind 
without guiding it into peaceful and 
unemotional channels. Touring is not 
resting. At the least, it is a change of 
toil. Starting out, trusting to luck, 
will often in many a particular spoil 
the experience. People used to wearing 
cotton underwear, for example, will 
listen to one of the most experienced. 
one of the most reliable of outdoor men 
(Stewart Edward White), and wear 
“light woolen underwear.” That is also 
according to the experience of armies. 
But it takes one weeks to grow ac- 
customed to “light woolen underwear,” 
and the misery of it may well spoil 
one’s whole journey. 
Here one’s own individuality super- 
imposes a veto as regards a funda- 
mental of outdoor life! Personally, I 
wear the cottons, but I put army 
breeches, stockings, shirt, and macki- 
naw shirt over the cotton—and let it 
go at that. I know I’m wrong—but I 
trust that I have enough will power, 
enough individuality to burst through 
even my own ironclad rules and regu- 
lations—if I have any! 
Wee are apt to lose a good deal, ap- 
ing other fellows. Nothing gives 
me greater appreciation of the other 
fellow than to see him casting aside 
the rules of the touring, camping, sport- 
ing pilgrimage game in order to enjoy 
life in his own way. We have fine 
automobile touring camps, now, from 
ocean to ocean. We can go into park 
after park, and find all the conveni- 
ences, from hot baths to free gas and 
electric stoves, or wood at a quarter, 
cement fireplaces and even tent frames 
(never of the right size for one’s own 
tent!) and lots for each outfit. But 
we who run into these camps and bless 
the municipalities that provide them, or 
the private enterprises that supply so 
much for a half dollar, cannot fail to 
give a gust of appreciation to those 
other wanderers who spurn the free 
and open to find amid hostile “NO 
TRESPASS” signs nooks and corners, 
In writing to Advertisers mention Forest and Stream.
