Recommended Product

As I have mentioned previously, the aspect of hydration is super important when it comes to hiking!

Today, I want to recommend a product that is a personal favorite of mine to always keep me hydrated during hikes, in the most convenient way possible!




This is the Rim Runner™ backpack by Camelbak, found on Camelbak’s website.

I received this backpack in particular as a gift, and I am so thankful that I have this for when I am hiking.

It has a nozzle on the outside so I can easily access water when I want, which is important to me because it can be a nuisance having to stop and pull a water bottle out of my backpack in the middle of a hike.

It is perfect for short hikes, and definitely long hikes because it is light on your back, which is what you’ll want if you’re going on a longer hike. I know that in the past, before I had this backpack, I would stuff a bunch of water bottles in my backpack, which tends to get pretty heavy on top of the other things I have to keep in my pack. The backpack by Camelbak is a much more convenient alternative to carrying a bunch of plastic water bottles.

This backpack in particular is priced at $100.00, which is not too bad compared to the other backpacks Camelbak offers on their website. It is a happy medium between the highest and lowest priced backpacks, which is nice for your wallet.


All in all, I recommend this backpack fully! It is more convenient, lighter on your back, and in my opinion, drinking water is more fun this way!

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

Mystic Island Lake, Colorado

Mystic Island Lake! Mystic Island Lake is a lake is that is located outside of Vail, Colorado. It is in close proximity to Aspen, Colorado, which I have touched on quite a bit in my previous posts. Mystic Island Lake can be accessed by hiking Lake Charles first, which will lead you to Mystic Island Lake. While I have not personally hiked this trail, I have looked into it because of the close proximity to Aspen. It is nestled in the White River National Forest, which I have traveled to, and I wish I would have know about this place when I traveled to it, but now I can just plan another trip to check it out. It is rated as a long, difficult hike. It is about 9 miles out and back, with some very steep parts of the trail and difficult terrain to walk on. I have mentioned before that when I was in Colorado, we were hiking part of the trails in the snow. So I am going to strongly recommend that for this hike, you pack some type of snow shoe. A lot of the time, the trails are

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
