Perfect Hiking Gear For Those Long Walks Up Big Mountains! |
| 3/3/2010 11:35:18 PM |
I can't believe that my husband talked me into hiking up the side of the mountain with him. I had never done anything like this before and I really felt it! But, it was a lot of fun anyway. Growing up as a child in the city never really gave me the opportunity to go hiking a lot. However, when I got married that all changed. Hiking gear became a regular household item.

A Moment Camping Outdoors |
| 2/24/2010 2:20:52 PM |
 The air is thick as grey storm clouds wander past above. After driving through a maze of mud holes and soft light brown dirt smooth enough to slide down we make our way into the Evergreen canopy. What little light was peaking through the dark clouds above disappears. It isn’t dark but it isn’t bright. Squirrels rush up bark trunks after hearing the scream of our dirt bikes... Read More |

I always make a camping hiking gear check list before trips! |
| 2/24/2010 2:11:48 PM |
 There have been so many camping trips that I have been on, and about six or seven more that I have planned for this year that there is one lesson I have learned over the years that has proven to be priceless in my planning: always make a camping hiking gear check list. There have been times in the past where I failed to make a camping hiking gear check list, and upon... Read More

Boots are vital hiking gear. |
| 2/1/2010 5:07:38 PM |
Have you ever gone camping outdoors while wearing a new pair of hiking boots? Even worse is buying a new pair of hiking gear boots and then going for a day long hike. Sore and blistered feet is the usual result. This is why I go online this time of year and look for the hiking gear I am going to need for this spring and summer. And I need a new pair of hiking boots. If I... Read More |

Gather up the Hiking Gear... |
| 2/1/2010 4:45:32 PM |
Let's gather up the hiking gear and hit the trails! Hiking is a passion of mine. I jump on every opportunity I can get to head out of town. This time of year the temperature starts out crisp and warms up during the day. I always dress in layers with extra clothes in my hiking gear just in case I get wet or the weather suddenly turns nasty. I have been caught off guard with... Read More |

Hiking Gear Makes it Easy to Burn Calories |
| 1/29/2010 2:34:14 PM |
 The key to my own success in not turning into an overweight load is finding different physical activities instead of just going to the gym. A gym is good for what it is but the best cardio or full body workouts come from things like basketball, biking, football, swimming or hitting the trailhead. As soon as the storms passed over here in Southern California and the sun... Read More |

 After going home for the holidays, my family is going to come over to my place for a couple days before going home for New Years. While I can’t wait to get home for Christmas and see all my family, I’m excited to bring them back to my place. I am planning to show my mom and brother a local hiking trail that offers panoramic views of the LA area. To one end, there is the... Read More |

First Aid for Hiking Gear from Mom Perfect for Christmas |
| 12/10/2009 11:49:25 AM |
 This is the first Christmas in 65 years that my mom is on her own to select Christmas presents for her kids and grandkids, and she's at a loss. She is completely computer illiterate so I suggested I come over and help her order gifts online to avoid the crowds at the mall. Shopping also tires her out, so I'm bringing my laptop over and we're going to choose gifts that we... Read More |

| 11/25/2009 7:08:39 PM |
With the camping season about over, we decided we needed to add some camping gear and some hiking gear. Our family does a lot of camping outdoors, and we love to take the children hiking. We have added the number of children we take to include some of our grandchldren's friends. This is sometimes a problem because our tent only sleeps six comfortably. So, we found an... Read More |

Having the Appropriate Hiking Gear and Camping Gear |
| 11/17/2009 3:10:18 AM |
My family has always loved to go camping and hiking. As the children grew older, I soon realized we had not only done well by teaching them the love and appreciation of nature; but, we taught them having the approrpiate camping hiking gear was a must at all times. The boys love to hike in the mountains, and sometimes their fearlessness frightens me. However, I have... Read More |

Hiking With Kids Means First Aid Kit In Hiking Gear |
| 11/13/2009 3:32:56 PM |
One of the most important pieces in my hiking gear is a first aid kit. The reason for this is that we have three kids that come along with us when we are hiking. The kids love hiking. They have their own hiking gear and do a great job of keeping up, climbing over large hills, and do not mind camping in the woods. In fact, they like that part the best! However, being kids...

Camping Hiking Gear is Interchangeable |
| 11/11/2009 2:37:42 PM |
 There may differences between hiking and camping but the gear is the same thing. Hiking gear provides support for taking in all that is Mother Nature at higher elevations. Camping gear provides support for pleasantly making it through the night(s) under the stars. Each is rugged and each is a perfect way to get outside of the thick, noisy air of a bustling city for the... Read More |

Hiking Gear for Local Adventures |
| 11/11/2009 2:17:27 PM |
 Since moving to Southern California, I have yet to drive an hour or so outside of the cities for some hardcore hiking trails. What I have been doing is finding the trails nearby. The area I live in is surrounded with rolling hills that make for perfect hiking spots. They vary in difficulty but for the most part the only hiking gear I bring are supportive shoes and a bottle...

The Thrill Of Camping Outdoors |
| 10/22/2009 1:14:29 PM |
The outdoor sport community is great to be a part of. We are a bunch of adrenaline junkies at heart, but we love the land and we are conservationists that want to protect wildlife and their habitats. Give us some hiking gear and some outdoor camping gear and we are in heaven. Camping outdoors lets us feel like we are a part of the wilderness and also lets us enjoy our... Read More |

Hiking gear season is here in the Southwest |
| 10/20/2009 5:35:18 PM |
 The cooling temperatures in the Southwest are finally here and my friend and I can go hiking again, one of our favorite outdoor sport to do in the fall. My friend is a true hiker, she hikes in the early evenings even in the sweltering heat. I am not that motivated to do that. There are many hiking trails where we live, so on Saturdays and or Sundays, we will start our... Read More

Hydration Packs and Walking Sticks Essential for Hiking Gear |
| 10/20/2009 3:33:06 PM |
 One of my most essential pieces of hiking gear is my walking stick. I had an eye trauma so my depth perception is off a little, and I use my trusty walking stick to negotiate the rocks, particularly when I go down hills on rocky trails. We have some pretty steep grades on the hiking trails around here, so it's not unusual to see even really young hikers sporting the hiking... Read More |
