We’ve rounded up a few essentials to help you plan your perfect hiking adventure. Including the 7 principles of Leave No Trace©, an organization focused on helping you explore the outdoors sustainably every time you get outside.
Know Your Trail
Snowy mountains to blazing desert trails, in order to have the perfect hiking day you need to be prepared for what's ahead of you. Check the weather forecast and don't forget that altitude changes a lot. Light layers are always a good idea when it comes to weather, wind, and sun. If you're hiking somewhere high and dry, go for the running shoes. If your trails entail rivers and puddles, hiking boots are a must. Although snacking is permitted, your food should be factory sealed if you are in bear country (just to be on the safe side).
What to Pack
Leave No Trace
Leave no trace is one of the most important principles of hiking. In order to minimize your impact on nature and respect wildlife, take only photos, and leave only footprints. This is made easy with the refillable, reusable Thermacell. Take it with you from peaks to valleys and stay protected from your least favorite part of nature so you can enjoy all your favorite parts.
