Description
Enjoy the Great Outdoors
I love backpacking! There is nothing better to me than being one with nature, to getting back to our roots as humans, and really understanding survival at a basic, visceral level. My friends joke that I’m so intense about my hobby that I try and convert everyone I meet. There is some truth to this. I truly believe that everyone should experience backpacking in their lives at least once. They may love it, or hate it, but I guarantee they will have a reaction to it. Not many come away from a backpacking trip feeling indifferent. Most come away feeling alive and relaxed, finally able to unplug from society, from cell phones, from business meetings.
My goal in writing this book has been to bring more people into the world of backpacking. I feel if I can get one person to try it after reading this guide, I will have been incredibly successful. If I were able to turn someone into an enthusiast, I’d be ecstatic.
The hardest thing for beginners about backpacking is really knowing where to get started. The task often appears daunting, both in planning and execution. It doesn’t have to be, though, and I will show you how to simplify the process in these pages. Getting out there and doing it will be up to you. There is no better teacher than experience, especially with backpacking.
