What is your “Hiking Technique?”
Do you hike a trail as a soldier marches? LEFT… LEFT… LEFT, RIGHT, LEFT…
Are you a “Tripper?”
Are you a “Slipper?”
LOL! Now ya know how we got our Trail Names!!!
Do you approach hiking as a delicate dance (over rocks & roots)?
Do you hike with music playing from your ear-pods?
Do you hike quietly (listening to the sounds of nature)?
Whatever is right for you is right, because a Hiker is purposed to hike his/her own hike.
Can you guess who the “Camera Person” is within this Hiking Duet? Yeah… that’s right… Tripper!
I will admit that I prefer to have Slipper hiking in front of me just to assure her safety (and because I do like the view😊). She is also an inspiration for me when hiking an ascent toward the top of the next summit.
Sometimes we trip! Sometimes we slip! Sometimes we march! LEFT… LEFT… LEFT, RIGHT, LEFT.
Regardless of what your “Hiking Technique” is… our encouragement is to just get outside and hike.
Uphill… Downhill… Ridge-Hiking (my favorite)… Tripping… Slipping… Dancing… or marching (LEFT… LEFT… LEFT, RIGHT, LEFT)… just keep on keeping on, because the views are worth it!
