Are you interested in outdoor backpacking? Carrying everything you need for 1+ nights with you into nature?
I can help you get started depending on your experience level & questions.
Some of the aspects I can share with you:
- what gear you need, different ways of acquiring it, and tradeoffs of different setups
- what aspects you should be thinking about when planning a trip - eg. how to choose a route & look for permits
- a comprehensive packing list (including first aid kit, utility list)
- ideas of backpacking friendly foods based on your dietary preferences
- my experiences with backpacking
- how to physically prepare for a trip
- how to warmup & stretch when backpacking
These are just some ideas, I am happy to have a conversation and help you get started. We can exchange via messages or have a video chat to go more in depth.
