Hiking Tips- Join a club or make your own

  My good friend Rick is an avid hiker and rock climber. Most weekends you can find him exploring all different types of terrain around Arizona. Usually, he will send out Facebook posts about upcoming trips, or send out a text inviting people to join. Exploring your immediate surrounding areas can be inexpensive and a great day or weekend trip.  You can join an existing hiking club, get together with a group of friends, or, if your a die hard Pittsburg Steelers fan, you might get lucky to be invited by Rick.

  Most states have a lot of private land that is available to explore and hiking can be a great day activity for families or a perfect date idea. There are a few rules to being prepared and careful when you set out to explore unknown areas. Make sure that you take basic provisions, follow a known trail, never hike alone, and keep the distance to a minimum if you are a beginner hiker since this is an activity that’s best done with quality over quantity. Don’t forget, never drink out of a river or stream because they can be loaded with bacteria no matter how pretty and clear they are. Be aware of your hydration. In less than an hour, depending on the temperatures, you can become dehydrated and get heat stroke. Heat stroke can be life threatening. Always check out websites that give advice on hiking safety tips before heading out.
