I came across a blogger named Cam, who has his own blog called ‘The Hiking Life’. From what I’ve gathered looking through his blog, is that he is a very experienced hiker. Being an experienced hiker, you learn the in’s and out’s of hiking, and hopefully have a lot of knowledge and wisdom to share with your readers, which Cam definitely does.

If you visit Cam’s about me page, you learn that he has hiked over 57,000 miles in over 56 countries and six different continents. How insane is that?! He has some more insane stats that he included in his about me, which you can access here.

While I love hiking, I do not have the experience that Cam has, which is why I am encouraging all of you to check out his blog! He not only talks about the places he has traveled and hiked, but he has tons of different tips that will help you whenever you do choose to get out there and hike.

Just looking through his blog briefly, you can learn so much more in a short amount of time, than you would trying to research these topics yourself.

A few of the topics he goes over which I thought were very useful, especially for beginners, include his blogs on:

Tips for Hiking in Cold and Wet Weather

Hydration Tips for Hikers

Five Basic Principles of Going Lighter

Click the links to read about each topic that he discusses, I ensure that these will help you when youre getting ready for a hike, especially longer and more challenging hikes.

Devil's Lake State Park

Image
In Baraboo, Wisconsin, Devil’s Lake State Park resides which offers several different trails, as well as a lake. I want to talk about this state park because not only is it a great place for hiking, but because I have actually been hiking it since I was a little girl. Devil’s lake is pretty big, offering about 30 miles of trails throughout the park, and has cabins in case any of you were interested in making a trip out of coming here. You can either come into the park on the north shore or the south shore, and each shore has different trails to hike. My preference is coming in on the south shore, because it provides an immediate access to the scenery of the lake, as well as quick access to the hiking trails. My favorite trails to do here at Devil’s lake include the potholes trail, balanced rock trail, and the devil’s doorway trail. Potholes trail is very challenging in my opinion, because this trail takes you straight up to the top. The trail is vertical ro...

Ramona Falls, Oregon

Ramona Falls! Ramona Falls is located about an hour east of Portland, Oregon, and you guessed it; features a stunning waterfall at the end of the hike! The hike is about 7 miles long and has been reviewed as easy to moderate, so it is doable for beginners, and especially doable for more experienced hikers. I have been to Oregon once, and let me tell you, it’s a beautiful place. When I had the opportunity to go to Oregon, I did quite a bit of hiking and it filled with lots of green forests and stunning overlooks at the top of each hike. It has been my goal to get back to Oregon and do some more hiking and I have been set on hiking Ramona Falls, considering I did not see any waterfalls in my previous hikes in Oregon. A few facts about this hike: 7 miles’ round-trip, labeled as out and back. Around 1000 feet elevation gain Can be very crowded Hiking this trail is primarily through early spring to late fall for best weather conditions I know a ...

Hiking Yosemite National Park

Yosemite National Park! Yosemite National Park is located near Stockton, California, and caught my eye due to its beautiful waterfalls and rock formations. I have never been to California, but I am recently discovering that California has a lot of beautiful places that are great for hiking. I’m hoping one day I will be able to hike Yosemite, so let me tell you a little about it and maybe you will want to hike it too! Yosemite has not just one, but multiple different waterfalls that you can explore!  A few are: Yosemite Falls – around 2,500 feet. Sentinel Falls – around 1,600 feet. Ribbon Fall – around 1,600 feet. Nevada Fall – around 600 feet. Vernal Fall – around 300 feet. Aside from the waterfalls, like I said before, there are a lot of different places here that you can hike. A cool one I have researched is called Hetch Hetchy. Hetch Hetchy is known for its extremely long hiking season, which is great because you would never really ...
