there's no need for it all to be underlined. I might do a one on safety in the African Bush if I can be bothered. And if I can remember my ranger training from 3 years ago
Yeah you're not writing it on paper. I went hiking on Arthur's Pass with other people from my school (you chose which camp you wanted to go on) for camp, and we went pass Whisky falls etc. All this was from Lake Rotoiti here in New Zealand. It took 7 hours there and back. Don't know if that counts though. Oh well Then near at the end of the year, my proper class camp was there as well, and we did it again Nice tips though I wore jandals for the first half going on the hike
Here's my tips for if you're planning to join a lengthy walk, such as a Pilgrimage to a church that's far away on Lenten week, or if there happens to be an announced transport strike, or you're joining a marching rally against your corrupt country leaders, or if you just feel like it. 1 Plan ahead, on the day of your walk, prepare everything you'll probably need, like drinking water, take only water not juice or soda, that'll just up your thirst level, I can't say if sports drink are fine 'cause I've never drank that shit 2 Psyche yourself up, be mentally & emotionally prepred don't do this if you're the kind of person who tends to whine a lot when pressured too much 3 Know thy trail, get yourself familiarized with the roads, alleys, streets passages & the general area you'll be traversing so you can plan ahead & designate pitstops or rest areas. Can't just pee or crap anywhere where it isn't allowed or you can't just take a break in a cool shady looking area without knowing if that place is a hang out for muggers, hold uppers or even rapists 4 Wear strong sturdy shoes that are specially designed for long distance walking but are light & easy to move around with. Don't sport off your expensive Gucci shoes just to show off, that's really REALLY retarded. And if you're like me who really enjoys walking 10 to a max of 50 kilometers for fun & want to add additional resistance, wear Deisel shoes!! 5 Pace yourself, you are just walking really so why not pace yourself to what's tolerable for you. Sure you may think walking a 5 kilometer walk can take you about 45 minutes, but why not speed up to cut down a few minutes or ease up & add more, you've got to know your limits 6 Cancel out everything you see & hear. Focus yourself at the task at hand, you are walking busy city streets or back roads here & are not on an African safari, so don't stop to look at the scenery, 'cause you've probably seen it before 7 Lastly, enjoy your walk
