Seen on patagonia.com

I'm setting my sights on my next AT segment. In June I'll do another 80 miles or so on the Tennessee/North Carolina border. As I was perusing the superhighway of backpacking equipment available online, I found the following quote on the Patagonia website. What a perfect statement of why I love backpacking.

"We enjoy silent, human-powered sports done in nature, where the reward involves no audience and no prize other than hard-won grace. These entail risk, require soul and invite reflection. They bring us closer to the natural world and to ourselves."
