I
did not go on my first hike until my mid-30s. I could blame it on the fact that
I grew up on the Great Plains of South Dakota and North Dakota. Having
never gone, I didn't see the value and always shook my head when asked.
At the urging of my wife, and with my two young kids, we walked a beautiful
forest path on a cool August morning. I carried a small backpack with water and
snacks (小吃). When we reached the top, we ate lunch
together overlooking a perfectly still pond and scenic Vermont.
A
few weeks ago, my 11-year-old son, my 61-year-old dad, and I hiked Camelback
Mountain in Phoenix. Last weekend, I hiked down the Grand Canyon with my son
along the South Kaibab Trail. And later this week, my wife and daughter will
join us to walk the Waterfall Trail in the White Tank Mountains.
Now,
just to be clear, by no means would I classify myself as an expert hiker.
And I have no plans to climb Mount Kilimanjaro or walk the Appalachian Trail. But
waking early on a Saturday morning to walk 3-5 miles along a forest path with
lunch in the backpack is a journey I'd recommend to anyone.
It
is healthy physical exercise that creates wonderful memories. And given
the chance, hiking teaches us important truths about life.
A. Most of our hikes only last 2 hours.
B. I've fallen in love with climbing
mountains.
C. I love the stillness and calm of an
empty path.
D. But mostly, to be honest, I just
wasn't interested.
E. If you can climb a mountain, you can
do anything.
F. It provides an opportunity to slow
down and disconnect.
G. I went on my first hike a few years
back while living in Vermont.
