THRU HIKING WISDOMS

THRU HIKING

• It worked really well for us to have that alone time and then come together at night and be able to share our days experiences.  Sometimes they were really different and sometimes they were really similar.  So it was really fun to compare notes and see what we each thought was the fun part of the day.

• I would use 1-2 packets of hot sauce just to spice it up. 
That’s why I had all those wonderful flavours to mess with.

• Hiking with just one person where we were really motivated to want to stay together and hike together.  So it was a lot easier for us to figure that out.  To work together.  To compromise and make decisions on how our hike was going to go.

• He and I were usually on the same page safety and what made sense to keep the hike fun.  Cause its supposed to be fun and we’d see a lot of people on trail push themselves to do something that they weren’t completely ready for and be miserable.

• If you’re not paying 100% attention, its not always clear where the trail is and a lot of times the trail meets roads and there’s a lot of other trails around so it can become a little bit confusing and you have to figure it out.  And be okay with making a few mistakes.

• Looking back, I would rather be in my tent in a rainstorm than working.

• There is always something that’s creating some sort of adversity on the trail and you just kinda have to embrace it. Accept that that’s part of the experience.
