I write what I would actually carry up a hill.

My name is Sukhen Tanchangya. I camp, hike, and travel out of Kaptai in the Rangamati hills of Bangladesh, and I have spent years on the trails of the Chittagong Hill Tracts learning what holds up and what falls apart when the rain starts.

Outdoor Awaits is the field journal I wish I had when I was a beginner. Every guide here is written like a friend explaining things over a small fire, with the parts that matter and the parts you can skip both clearly marked.
