Why Hiking For Her?
You might be asking yourself:
"Who would sit down and write all this stuff about hiking?"
To be honest, this collection of best hiking tips for women hikers was a long time coming...
beginning in 1971 when a 14 year old girl (me!) put on her first clunky external frame backpack and joined a week-long Girl Scout expedition into the Porcupine Mountains of Michigan's Upper Peninsula.
Then Isle Royale National Park in Lake Superior beckoned, and there was no turning back!
That intrepid youngster went on to hike many types of trails, learning (sometimes the hard way) how to take care of herself in the great outdoors.
If you'd like more of the back story (and to see that 14 year old hiker girl), go here.
Now, 4+ decades later, she's dug out her trail journals and put together hundreds of pages of free hiking information just for you.
It's been a pleasure building this hiking resource for women hikers, so please enjoy every page.
