“Greatest way to enjoy the outdoors is to be nude and hiking / camping is no different. . . Over the years I have found that the western part of the U.S. is much more amenable to freehiking, both in terms of opportunity as well as the attitudes of people. . . Enjoyed a 5-day nude backpacking/camping trip in the Ocala National Forest last summer.  Bugs and heat weren't too bad in the forest and there was a spring feed pond that served as a great place to cool off and relax after a day's hike.  Only passed one other hiker and he was down to his backpack and a pair of brief running shorts, but it was during a downpour so our encounter was very brief as we were each headed back to our shelter.” – Flbeachman, https://www.truenudists.com/forum/viewthread.php?id=1368&page=2

“I have enjoyed ‘skinny road trips’ without a specific destination, in the past.  I will dress briefly only when necessary . . . when stopping to stretch at the more public places, while staying nude when stopping in secluded places. . . my kilts just lay open and flat on the seat much of the time.  They wrap with Velcro, so that I can have one on in a flash if necessary.  I highly recommend both the kilt and the skinny road trip, as comfortable and versatile extensions of the naturist life style.” – Dan

“Naturism is a philosophy of life.  It’s a way of thinking, acting, and looking at the rest of the world.  We are fostering respect for self, for others, and for the environment.  Complete nudity is fundamental to those values.” - http://www.bareoaks.ca/index.php/en/about-bare-oaks-family-naturist-park/why-nudity-is-required.html

“I think all people have within them the seed of Naturism, after all we are born naked and free.  However, every seed holds within itself a potential, can flourish or not.  Not all grow, only age. . . Grow is a prerogative of humans.  Only some claim this right. . . So that the seed of Naturism can put down some roots it is essential that its participants will assume their condition in front of everyone with pride.” – Evandro Telles, http://osnaturistas.com/en/noticias/a-semente-do-naturismo1/
