I'm not really much of anybody. I grew up in the Rocky Mountains hiking pretty much every day, whether it was the mile to school or all over the trails during the summer. Hiking is a tremendously healthy experience that exercises your body, mind, and soul - and the best thing is that just about anyone can do it, no matter location or age.
Some buddies got me to put together this web site as part of the Outdoors Dudes group of sites. The idea is to share expertise that we have and hopefully encourage others to get out there and move. I hope the advice, tips, and words of experience you find here make your wanderings more fun, safe, and fulfilling.
It's fine with me if you ignore the ads displayed on the side. I hope they aren't too distracting off to the side as they are. But, to tell you the truth, I find it pretty interesting how the ads match up with what the page is about and I've found some awfully good deals from some of them.
Enjoy my site and I'd love to hear about your hiking adventures. If you have questions or suggestions, or just want to say 'Hey!', use the Feedback link at the bottom to drop me an email.
