WISDOMS
THRU HIKING
• The journey’s going to be what it’s going to be for you and everything’s going to change along the way.
• Life is short. Open your eyes. Go do this amazing thing.
• I think one of the big things that made me feel confident was seeing familiar faces.
• It’s so much warmer sleeping in a tent then it is even sleeping in a shelter.
• Take photos! Cause you’ll never remember it all but if you can see those pictures it will trigger those memories and bring back all the good times.
• You can’t have good times if you don’t have bad times. Because all the bad times make you appreciate the good times.
• When you’re hiking, don’t always look forward and ahead of you. Sometimes stop and turn around and look at where you came from, because sometimes the view behind you is just as gorgeous as the one ahead of you. Or maybe it’s more beautiful then the one that you’re seeing.
