I really have been struggling with figuring this out. Many people say to carry your books, but I don't want to do that. Plus, if it rains it'll get all wet. But if I don't really need that much stuff, then can't I just take a purse or some sort of smaller bag? If I do need a backpack, what kind of backpack do you recommend?
Answer
No. You can use large bags instead of a backpack. The only time i've used a back pack on daily basis is when i was in taking geology field cam[p and then i used a backpack and one or more large bags. I have to struggle to get get both arms through a back pack. I've stopped carrying purse most of the time now, but I'm usually not where pickpockets are common. I do carry a purse that can be closed in that kind of situation.
You don't HAVE to have a back pack nad you can carry a plastic bag in your bag to protect your stuff from rain and snow and dust. I've gone to college in both New orleans, where getting drenched between noon and 6 pn can be a daily occurrence, and central Oklahoma, where i've been through several dust storms when Texas is being blown into Oklahoma. Those dust storms are puny compared to the ones my mother experienced during the Dust Bowl. Geology field camp was in the Colorado Rocky Mountains. I still have and occasionally use that back pack.
BTW, you probably do not need to take the huge textbooks with you. The backpack or bag IS your purse, and your notebooks or recording devices and other electronics is what you carry in your bag or back pack. If you use a bicycle. either you or the bicycle has to more or less "balance"

Best place for Camping and Hiking in Oklahoma?
Me and my friend are in college in Oklahoma City and looking for a close by place to Camp and Hike for a weekend trip. Within five hours away at the most, preferably a little closer. We would really like a place with some elevation change and more secluded than crowded.

I backpacked the Skyline Trail in Beavers Bend State Park in eastern Oklahoma near Broken Bow. And I camped at Bee Creek. I recommend this hike for seasoned hikers only.

The Charonâs Garden Wilderness Trail is located within the Wichita Mountain National Wildlife Refuge near Lawton. I especially enjoyed backpack camping there in late September when the elk are in rut. I had the privilage of listening to a bull elk bugle most of the night on my last camp.
