Backpacking🗺️
I like traveling, especially backpacking. 😄
Backpacking is an adventure that blends hiking with backcountry camping. It lets you broaden your horizons beyond the car campground to enjoy a richer, more immersive outdoor experience. A key distinction from day hiking is the size of your pack—your backpack (and you) must carry all of life’s essentials on your back. And you must choose those essentials with care.
Get ready for your first backpacking trip, follow thesesteps:
1-an easy destination: overnight hikes close to
homeare best.
2-essential gear and clothing:Borrow and
scroungegear to save money.
3-Plan your food:Just-add-water meals can be found
at your local REI, or find easy to cook options at regular grocery
stores. Also pack plenty of snacks for trail fuel.
4-Get ready for your trip:Condition yourself to do
the planned hike with a fully loaded pack; get your permits; brush up
on Leave No Trace principles.
