Thread: How necessary is camo?

So I was sitting in a backcountry hut the other week. Main divide out the window with tahr, cham, and stags frolicking on the alpine meadows. Pure bliss, at least until I made the mistake of visiting the hut reading material..
“Otago uni tramping club antics magazine” sounds entertaining, I thought.

Flicking through I see a trip report featuring a chap I know as Joe_90, so I have a read. Taking a rifle on a tramping trip, yep. Getting lost, then falling off a bank and landing on said rifle, yep definitely Joe.

Then I turn the page to be confronted with a picture of said Joe, standing stark naked in a cave, with only the poor abused Howa for cover.

Bloody traumatic.

In my defence, it was was dark at the time and I was left unsupervised. It was only a small bank into the creek anyway.
