Hiking is just so much fun. You're outside in (hopefully) good weather, enjoying the sun and the fresh air as well as some energizing exercise. I love getting all geared up in my hiking boots, baseball cap and packing a backpack with trail snacks and water. It makes me feel like I'm going on an adventure--and I am!
I love to hike in the woods amongst the trees--they provide shade so you don't get too hot or sunburned, they smell terrific and are just so beautiful! Also, they have those awesome burbling streams. Being in the woods, or anywhere suitable for hiking, is just such a nice change from normal life in the suburbs, the city or even the country. It is remote and wild and makes you feel like a more rugged, independent person. Who knows if I'd be able to survive in the wild if something happened but the empowerment hiking gives me makes me feel like I can.
