    1. Tell someone where you’re going.
    2. Make sure everyone you’re hiking with knows exactly where their going and how long it’ll take.
    3. Check the weather.
    4. Be aware of local wildlife in your area.
    5. Make sure you take the ten essentials systems.
    6. Look up while you’re hiking.

    Totally agree with the heads up additude. Be aware of your surroundings, dead tree limbs can easily kill if a big one falls from a tree! Be careful guys!

  • @Awesome_Force
    @Awesome_Force 2 роки тому +1

    I thought about trying hiking. I think I'd go with one to three friends and at least one that is experienced.
    I know to bring some food like nuts and cereal bars, some first aid supplies, water and a lifestraw, lighter, compass, hand radios, whistle, flashlight and small lantern, knife, a couple handguns with ammo, probably 50+ rounds for each, a small thermal blanket, and I can't think of anything else right now. Realistically I will think about it for months first and make a list of stuff I think I'll need along the way while watching videos like these. I always think of water and weapons first, then try to figure out what else I may need. :)

    Thanks for the vid! I'm wanting to get into hiking, but I have so many questions! I grew up walking around the woods, but I've never gone "hiking" before. I signed up for a group hike that was going to be 5-6 hours up and down steep hills, etc. One of the members canceled saying it looked too intense. I checked her profile and she looked totally hardcore, so I canceled too. Hey, you gotta start somewhere right? So here I am watching these beginner guides and pondering where to start. Really appreciate your channel, subbed.

    • @amanda.outside

    BOOTS, WEAR BOOTS. And have a medkit on you, especially sutures, ankle wraps, and leg splints. It can suck really bad if you hurtself. And lots and lots of water. Thats it.

    • @ctb7894
      @ctb7894 4 роки тому +2

      You dont HAVE to wear boots. Wear something that is comfortable and is sized properly for your feet.
      Also, learn to use a Sawyer Squeeze filter. Bringing some water is good, but bringing so much that it weighs you down can make your hike more like hard labor and less like fun.

    Hi Amanda, I just subscribed to your channel! I haven't been hiking since I moved to Southern California from the beautifully wooded East Coast...so quite honestly, not knowing much about the wildlife and deserts, I'm being very cautious before I go out on my first real day hike. It seems like a completely different planet out here. I look forward to watching your videos and greatly appreciate the time you have spent making them.
    Happy Trails,
    Carol

      Hi Carol! Welcome! I actually grew up on the East Coast and moved to California in my early 20's, so I definitely understand the differences! I live in Utah now, which is such a cool place if you like the desert. I hope you enjoy your first few California hikes and thank you so much for commenting!

    • @amanda.outside
      @amanda.outside  5 років тому +1

      Thanks for bringing this up because some hiking declines can be tough! Trekking poles help a ton on downhills to reduce the impact on your feet and knees. I didn't start hiking with trekking poles until a couple years ago, and it makes a huge difference! Highly recommend. Also, try not to lock out your knees when you take a step downwards and make sure you really pay attention to your foot placement since you'll have some downward momentum! A lot of times, downhill hiking can be harder than the uphill, but trekking poles should definitely help!
