CHRIS SMEAD ~ THRU HIKING GEAR & TRAIL WISDOMS
“When I look back at it, I just look at it as a really fun, happy memory that will stick with me for the rest of my life. Not just as a transient memory that came and went, but as an experience that led to good friends… that will last forever.”

WISDOMS
THRU HIKING
• There’s something just so healthy to get away from technology and to just be around trees
and have a much simpler life.
• I think everybody should get there and see the outdoors, but not all at the same time.
Not all on the same trail.
• I wonder if when we come out of this, if we’re going to appreciate personal contact a lot more?
• When you have a place that very few people go to it doesn’t get a lot of funding.
• GPS and safety is so important because they lose people out there all the time.
• To see all the time depth behind these places, I think adds to the outdoor experience a lot.
• It’s a beautiful place. And take care of it. Be nice to it.
• When I look back at it, I just look at it as a really fun, happy memory that will stick with me for the rest of my life. Not just as a transient memory that came and went, but as an experience that led to good friends… that will last forever.
