Best Backpacking Podcast

144 Common Sense Prevails

On this Episode we discuss the overestimation of physical ability to the difficulties of the trail. Blindsided by our desires for reward and need to partake in the novelty, a new culture of backpacking has developed in taking the preparations out of the mix. Is social media making backpacking safer or more dangerous?
