Hiking for Everyone: Embracing Nature's Beauty

Hiking requires no “shape” just a way of being, positive attitude, and a mental fortitude. I was told once by someone who gave off an air of outdoor exclusivity “if you get in shape, you could try through hiking the enchantments there in Washington.” To which I smiled and was able to reply, “I’ve done it 3 times, and backpacked it once. Same with Rim to Rim of the Grand Canyon - they’re great 😀.” While obviously not possessing which ever shape this person expected these feats to require. Hiking is something anyone can do. It’s for all. Don’t let anyone, even yourself, tell you otherwise. Get outside this week and watch as you start to love “your shape” exactly for what its capable of as you look back with memories and smile for having the guts and will to get out there.
