From "Wild Earth Adventures"
If you’re a beginner, for maximum enjoyment and safety there are some things you should know before plunging in. Hiking isn’t at all a risky businessif you know what you’re doing, but if you’re considering hiking alone or with inexperienced friends, it’s vital to know how to take care of yourself in the wilder places in all possible circumstances. Whenever there’s a news story about someone being lost in the woods, or a hiking group having to be rescued, in the vast majority of cases you’ll find that the people involved didn’t have essential gear, or lacked appropriate skills, or exercised poor judgment. You can greatly reduce the chances of ever finding yourself in such a “fix” by learning a few outdoor skills and some hiking basics.
