True 'nuff, ease yourself into it. The camping aspects of a backpacking trip I find pretty much the same; just a little more thought into what you need to take; but the opportunity to get further away from things appeals to me infinitely more.

I'm aware of the risks of solo trips which is why I don't do silly things when I'm out there. Haven't had to hack my own arm off. Yet.

Then again I'm someone who regularly SCUBA dived solo off the coast here which you absolutely, expressly and utterly should not do - especially at night, which is when I liked it the best.
