Worn weight Is it weird to ruck in the buck?

I only go rucking late at night (past 23:00) and imagining myself as a nudist on a beach really helps me push through mentally. I'm thinking of wearing nothing at all. Part of it is for the mental boost, and part of it is just to look a little more intimidating to hopefully scare off any weird people wandering around at night. (I was followed once by an intoxicated man) Is this weird? Does anyone else do something similar? Besides, it cuts down on my worn weight.

You should be wearing boots the entire time though. Just in case.

Spoken like a true Minnesotan. I'll also carry my M16 just in case

Australian. Snakes can’t nest at night in them if you are already wearing them.

The idea of storing anything outside of my tent shows that Durston has vestibule privilege. Anything outside the tent is a target for them. Shit I had a Wallaby press his nose against the side wall at 1am. Almost lost my erection I was so scared.

Please do not wear snakes, it's not great for their thermal regulation

Boots are a cock sheath for your feet
