I’m thinking about going backpacking for the first time in a few months, i hike a lot and longest I’ve done was 14 miles and at least 3k feet gain. Otherwise 8-10 miles w 2-2500 feet of gain is typical. I don’t carry much though. Because of that idk what kind of hiking I should be aiming to do when I backpack especially if I end up going alone. I want to be safe but also challenge myself. #activity #nature
