Women backpackers wanted…

Thought some of you might enjoy this post about women and backpacking, just in time for Mother’s Day.

My wife and I wrote it together, and had some fun doing it!

I thought the article was pretty funny considering I am the backpacker in the family.  But what you said about letting your wife make some choices was great. I have been the slowest hiker in the group and the fastest.

I usually carry a small tarp. So in a pinch it could be used for privacy if nature calls. But in reality, I am more worried about mosquitos than other hikers. Btw, I hike with my daughter and there is no way I would share a potty kit with her. When it comes to carrying out the trash, I teach each person to be responsible for themselves.  But it is sweet that you all can share the experience as well as the doody bag!

Thanks, Lisa!

Just remember that it’s the female mosquitoes that bite! grin
