EP 122 Finding Your Backpacking Style, Managing Expectations, and Managing Your Body

This past fall I launched my the LEARN HOW TO BACKPACK backpacking course for those out there who are just beginning to dip their toes into this whole backpacking hobby. I’ve mentioned it on the show before but wanted to take some time to talk about why I created it and who it’s for.

Since me telling you about a course isn’t all THAT helpful, I’ve also included a few of the topics that I cover in the course. They are FINDING YOUR BACKPACKING STYLE, MANAGING EXPECTATIONS, AND MANAGING YOUR BODY. Each one of these I cover in the course so I thought I’d share them with you on this episode. With any luck, you’ll come away from this episode with some actionable tips to take with you on your next trip to the backcountry!
