Hope you can find a hiking buddy. I would love to see photos of the mountains in Wales!<br /><br />Emma, A compass or GPS is great advice. I almost took the wrong trail going down the mountain. I must find my compass or buy a new one before my next hike. <br /><br />Gary, I love that statement!jeanlivingsimplehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08820800238853344959noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7653157038282170244.post-11563691154098305402011-06-19T14:52:27.950-04:002011-06-19T14:52:27.950-04:00Hiking in the forest is touching nature first hand...Hiking in the forest is touching nature first hand!!

You are wise to let someone know where you are going. Taking your cell phone is also a good idea. Even with a marked path, it is a good idea to have a compass or GPS too.Emma Springfieldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10543689047463574012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7653157038282170244.post-73765597922718877062011-06-19T14:16:42.357-04:002011-06-19T14:16:42.357-04:00Apologies if I've posted twice but I seem to h...Apologies if I've posted twice but I seem to have lost my first 'comment' somehow - too busy looking around your nice new set-up, I expect, and not concentrating on what I was doing!<br /><br />I admire your hiking stamina! I sit at the computer too much and need to get fitter so that I can tackle our three local mountains, plus a little one, like I used to! But I do worry about going up on my own these days. It can seem quite creepy in the wooded bits :(<br /><br />Lovely butterfly photo!Judy Adamsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02986456665704994228noreply@blogger.com
