I have been doing outdoor activities like rock climbing and hiking for years. Hiking trips are an adventurous way to take a vacation or a little bit of time out to enjoy nature at its finest, up close.
Many start out learning how to mountain climb by essentially hiking up hill. As you grow into camping and gain experience, you can buy an RV or add quality camping gear. Camping, especially if it is accompanied by trekking and other adventure sport, can be pretty tiring and you will want to rest your weary bones at the end of the day so don't forget your sleeping bag.
No matter what style of climbing you try, you are looking at a high calorie workout. On the east coast we simply put up with the rain.
If you know where civilization is, however, then take out your compass and make your way back to the road or the trail. It s always good to have a GPS unit with you so that you can avoid getting lost. A foam underlay may also be a useful addition to keep the sleeping bag off the ground and away from moisture.
Now go and sit around a crackling, warm campfire and sing some songs. But to the eyes of the man of imagination, nature is imagination itself.
