Welcome!

Welcome to my list of the top backpacking spots in the United States. This list is a combination of trips that I have taken, trips I would like to take, and trips that friends have taken and told me about. I am excited to share these with you, and would love your feedback if you have any suggestions for the list.

The pictures used have either been taken by me personally, or taken from the National Park Service website unless otherwise noted.

Happy Camping!

In Conclusion....

Well, that concludes my list of my favorite places that I have backpacked and would like to go backpacking. As I look back at the list, I realize that alot of them are natural parks. This inspires me to invest in our natural parks because of the opportunities they present for backpackers and outdoor enthusiasts. Alot of these parks may be out of reach for you, financially or physically. I reccomend finding local parks that have unique aspects to them. I wrote about Devils Lake, a local state park near my hometown, in one of my recent posts. I encourage you to share your experiences on this page or in blogs of your own.

Throughout the process of writing this, I have realized that I do not have enough chances to get out and explore the wilderness that I talk about so much. I really enjoy getting out there, but unfortunatley the college life makes that difficult sometime. It seems like weekend trips will be the answer until summer rolls around, then hopefully i'll have the chance to tackle some of the big parks i wrote about throughout this blog. Well, that pretty much sums it up. Until we talk next, have a great time in the outdoors!
