On The Trail: Tips for Solo Backpacking
Lori shares five basic, beginner tips for planning and thriving as a solo backpacker.
1. Test out your gear ahead of time
2. Go easy on the miles (this isn't about the miles)
3. Be present and enjoy the experience
4. Plan, but prepare for something to not go to plan
5. Unpack and put away your gear when you get home
