The more I hike the more tired I get. And the more tired I get, the more my photography suffers. Plus the spots I reach often have the wrong light when I arrive. I actually prefer backpacking over long hikes these days because I can stay at a location and divide my days between hauling and shooting.
Thanks for this post Heroique! It came just in time, reminding me that I need a whistle and some other odds & ends before I head out backpacking again, which will probably be this weekend. I've dealt with knee and ankle issues for over a decade, but my new orthotics seem to be magic and I'm dreaming of 20-30 mile backpacks by mid-July. A return to the Wind Rivers is also long past due.
