Abstract:

Walking was recommended as part of backpacking and hiking experiences. For the best experiences, the author suggested considering supplies, rental prices, the pack’s weight, and ways to avoid littering. Sites such as Morrow Mountain State Park, the Blue Ridge Parkway, and Mount Mitchell were recommended. Included were tips for new backpackers and hikers.
