  1. Whose etiquette should I fix next??? After my “how to hike like a real man” video, the reactions were… educational. Some of you shared thoughtful support. Incredibly, so many women shared scary, awful, and very real personal stories of trail encounters. And then there was a very loud minority who said: “I’m not doing any of this.” Which told me something important: We don’t just need one etiquette video. We need a series. Welcome to the next installment of: How to hike like a respectable human being. And today’s feature…The Bluetooth Speaker Hiker Look, I get it. Music is part of your life. But what most people don’t realize is that sound travels much farther outdoors than it feels like it does. What sounds “low” to you can carry hundreds of feet down a canyon especially in quiet backcountry environments. Which means when you blast music on a trail, you’re not just setting your vibe, you’re not just affecting your group…you’re changing the experience for everyone around you And often… for wildlife too. Shared trail = shared soundscape. If you want music: - One earbud - Low volume Or better yet…let nature do its thing. So, tell me in the comments: Who should be next in the trail etiquette series? Appreciate everyone who’s been engaging (even the spicy comments 👀). I’m still reading through your stories and feedback. And be sure to follow outdoorwiseliving for more trail-tested hiking tips so you don’t have to learn the hard way. #womenwhohike #trailtips #trailwisdom

  2. Most hiking injuries don’t happen on the way up…
 They happen on the way down. Downhill hiking creates eccentric loading: your muscles are braking your full body weight instead of lifting it. 
That creates more microscopic damage to muscles, tendons, and joints than climbing. Translation: You’re not weak.
 You’re just hiking downhill wrong. Three rules that saved my knees across 300+ hikes in the past two years alone:
 • Shorter steps 
• Slower cadence 
• Trekking poles only downhill I use trekking poles because they offload up to 25% of knee force. Need some tips to pick out new poles? Here’s what to look for: 1️⃣ Be honest about your hiking style
Different hikers need different poles. Period. 2️⃣ Collapsible > fixed (for 90% of humans)
If you ever stash poles in your pack, travel, film, or hike mixed terrain, you must go collapsible 3️⃣ Aluminum vs carbon
Aluminum = bends, survives abuse
Carbon = lighter, stiffer, snaps when it hates you (I’ve had two break coming down waterfalls in the last year alone)
 4️⃣ Flick locks or walk away
Twist locks fail when wet or dirty.
Flick locks save your wrists. 5️⃣ Cork grips or regret it later
Cork molds to your hand. Foam dies. Rubber gets gross.
 6️⃣ Straps aren’t decoration
If they’re flimsy, the poles are trash.
Use them right or don’t use them at all. 7️⃣ Tips + baskets
Carbide tips. Replaceable parts.
 8️⃣ Weight doesn’t matter as much as comfort
A pole that slips or hurts your hands is heavier than one that weighs 3 oz more. Bottom line:
Buy poles that match your hiking reality, not your fantasy version of yourself. I use @blackdiamond but @leki.trailrunning @montemlife and @rei also make great hiking poles. Follow @outdoorwiseliving for more pro hiking tips and let me know if this helped you out! #hikingtips #howtohike #hikesmart

  3. everything we did in Patagonia in April👇🏻 Ok so, the biggest lesson we learned in Patagonia is: book as much time as you possibly can there because the weather is insane. It rained for 6 of our 9 days in El Chalten and we were afraid we weren’t going to see anything! Finally got a weather window and omgggg, it was amazing. Plus going in the fall means, less crowds, easier camping permits, colorful trees (the coolest trees) and slightly cheaper accommodations. In total we were there for about 22 days across the Chile and Argentina side from late March into early April! El Chaltén, Argentina: • Laguna de los Tres at sunrise • OVO Patagonia Via Ferrata Hotel (!!) @ovopatagonia • Laguna Cerro Torre (my favorite) • Laguna Capri • Camped at Poincenot Camp • El Chaltén sign • Sunrise 5 miles outside of town on the main road (rent a bike or grab a cab SO worth it) Puerto Natales, Chile • The cutest little town (also your gateway to the park) • Cold plunge in the Last Hope Fjord • Stay at a ranch: Estancia Peninsula • Took the bus from Puerto Natales to El Chalten Torres del Paine National Park, Chile: • Base of the Towers hike • Mirador Condor (best views) • Explora Hotel boardwalk • Ice hike on Grey Glacier • Do the W Trek (stay at Paine Refugio or Grey Sector) • The stretch between Grey & Paine = unreal • Ferry across Lago Grey Ferry across Lago Pehoé lmk if you have any questions! This area is SO CONFUSING. so happy to help! w/ @miss.rover #patagonia #chile #argentina #elchalten
