  • How to Hike Lighter     
  • Provide a series of classes focused on backpacking, using techniques to travel lighter. Too many hikers carry too much weight in their packs. This often creates physical discomfort and pain, limits the distance they can travel, and makes their hike a death march - greatly limiting what should be an enjoyable, refreshing experience. This class will teach backpackers and even day hikers how to make the decisions necessary to greatly lighten their pack weight and enjoy backpacking again.
