I don’t minds people packing music to listen to, but please always remind people that this does not mean it’s ok to blast your tunes over a blue tooth speaker. Nobody wants to listen to your music. People go out into the woods to commune with nature and get away from the modern world. A lot of newbie hikers don’t understand this and become super annoying on trail, as a result. Use headphones of some sort and keep the volume low enough so only you can hear it. Consider using only one earbud when on trail, so you can still be fully aware of, and react to, your surroundings.

Oh yes! This speaks directly to the 7th principle of Leave No Trace: Be Considerate of Others. This includes not blasting music in the outdoors: lnt.org/why/7-principles/be-considerate-of-other-visitors/

Did my first solo trip 8 years ago because I wanted to take my 12 year old son in the future and thought I should be able to do this alone before taking him with me. He is 20 now and still joins me but I really enjoy solo hikes

Awesome!

Kathleen, Don't know if i asked before or missed it, but have you gone over your video gear you use and how you accomplish it? are you taking two cameras (iphones) etc,? Just thought i would ask. Cheers to ya! For me its back to work Monday!

@TheHungryHiker 2 месяца назад

I haven't done a video yet focusing specifically on video gear I use, mainly because I have a pretty setup. It's just me and my GoPro with a mini stick. That's it. Sometimes I'll use my phone or my Canon M50 to shoot stuff inside, but out on trail it's just my GoPro and all of the extra batteries I bring. :)

@brad.m1997 2 месяца назад

I’m sorry if you’ve answered this before but as I recall, you enjoy hiking solo for the time alone; how do you manage your interractions with other hikers when you are actually solo hiking, end up at camp with others and just want to be left alone?

@brad.m1997 2 месяца назад

not so much the type of conversation you have but how do you handle maintaining your desired solitude? Or do you not mind that level of contact with strangers on the hike?

@robertwood5023 2 месяца назад

Hi Brad. When I’m seeking solitude I try and find the campsites that may be considered less desirable to other hikers. Usually this means gathering my water and dry camping further up the trail as most people seem to like to camp near the water. I also look for campsites that will only accommodate one tent and depending on which navigation tool your using those campsites may be on the map. Sometimes I end up camping near other hikers but they’re almost always wonderful people that are just planning to eat and go to bed so it’s usually a positive experience. I hope these aren’t too many unsolicited opinions from a complete stranger 😂. Happy trails!

@TheHungryHiker 2 месяца назад

When I'm out on trail by myself, I don't mind having interactions with other hikers or even sharing tent sites with other backpackers. In fact, whenever someone recognizes me out on trail (which happens quite a bit), I always like to stop and chat and offer them a Hungry Hiker sticker. It's always nice to see friendly faces out there and say hi to each other. Then we each go our own separate ways. By the time I get to a tentsite, I'm usually so tired that I only have energy to cook dinner, set up camp and then go to bed. Most of the time, just seeing another tent (not necessarily the person inside the tent), can be really comforting if I'm feeling a little anxious about camping by myself.

@TheHungryHiker 2 месяца назад

I don't mind a little short, friendly banter out on trail. Most of the time I'm out by myself out there so seeing a friendly face to say hi to is always welcoming to me.

@TheHungryHiker 2 месяца назад

Exactly! When I'm finding myself wanting to be more by myself at camp, I will purposely seek out smaller tent sites that I wouldn't have to share with other backpackers. And I agree with you, most of the people I've met out on trail have been really nice and fun to chat with.

do you ever bring protection hiking?

Sure I do! Sun Protection is one of the 10 Essentials and I never get out on trail without sun protection. What are the 10 Essentials? ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-U7nkTs53IA8.html

@@spawnrcandbikes When I'm hiking in Grizzly Country like I do here in Montana, I always carry bear spray. I have a built-in whistle on my pack's sternum strap so I always have that. I don't carry a firearm.

im actually so scared

@TheHungryHiker 2 месяца назад

We all have our own fears.

@hwahl1987 2 месяца назад

Same. I'm waaay more scared about meeting people on trail then coming across bad weather and/ or wildlife. I live in Sweden, so our bears and wolves don't care about people and the piggies and mooses don't either unless provoked. People tho... strangers are scary anywhere in the world.
