You sound like me both only have under 5yrs of hiking but we are smart and serious about it, we plan our trips and have the right gear emrgancy too, it's basic common sense really, research is key too....some people just don't get it, the gear reviews god damn the gear reviews lol my friend at two hiking shops here in Tas said you have the right gear don't get trapped you don't need to spend more unless your a trail runner or sprint walker going light weight and being off track like me sometimes I almost fell into it, great advice mate ever come to Tas hit me up I'll show you some cool places love from Hobart 👍
Awesome mate, yes I think if you do take hiking seriously that these lessons are learnt naturally. I’m hopefully heading down to Tas at the end of the year to roam around for a few weeks.
@@betterhiking yeah it's common sense really some mother's do have em lol 😂 Il be here hit me up mate I can send you my email if need be do a colab hike together 🥾🍻💪
Yes, a learning experience in excess of what you expect from just ‘walking’ I started with 2-3 hours through the Dandenongs, now on harder 6 hour day hikes in Catherdals or Lerderderg and overnight hikes in remote areas like Mitchell river. Planning Vic high country now the weather is warming up 😎🤙 have learned how to wear hiking boots properly and how to wear a 80 litre pack properly 🤘
Awesome stuff. Golden period for high country hiking without snow is October - December. January - March unlike what most people will say, is not a good time to hike out there as it is VERY dry, remote and prone to fires. And again April - May is another great time.
@@betterhiking thanks for the tip 🤙 Licola area and Crinoline is looking good, as is Viking Razor area, Bulla is loaded with trails in and around as well. One trip at a time 😎
