Backpacking and Hiking Tip #10

-Experience-

View from the actual Marbleyard at Devil's Marbleyard

As you go on trip after trip, be it a backpacking trip or a hike, remember, experience.

Experience the Trip, don't let challenges or hurdles, or something strange throw you off, take in every moment of it, it offers something special that you may remember for the rest of your life.  If there is bad weather, I find those to be the most memorable trips, as well as those when there was a mistake made.  Memories are made, not bought.

Build your Experience, as you go on each trip, use what you learn to build your knowledge and do better next time.  You may come across a fellow traveler along the trail, maybe someone who knows more, maybe someone that knows less, share your knowledge and experiences, it's a good way to learn more and make friends at the same time.

This is the end of my Backpacking and Hiking series, the next set will focus on Dining Etiquette
