Lessons Learned, Pieces of Advice, & Grains of Salt

Welcome back to Highwater Trek Co's podcast, where we discuss all things hiking!

As recounted in today's episode, Katy recently had the experience of leading backpacking novices through a tough Ozark section of trail. Her adventure led our hosts to ponder what they believe to be the most important advice for beginners, and the lesson learning required of them to reach these conclusions.

Tune in to hear Team Giggles discuss honoring your body, keeping expectations in check, and leaving room for the unknown while backpacking. Our hosts also offer practical advice for keeping your feet happy on trail, cutting weight from packs, and being properly prepared yet adaptable. 

And while our hosts feel passionate about their message, they also believe that advice should be taken with a grain of salt. So while they may offer guidance, they recognize that each individual hiker is unique, and some of the most important lessons from the trail can only be learned through time and experience.
