I’ve posted an article I wrote years ago for Florida Hiker magazine on Backpacking Basics: what’s different about backpacking in Florida. Hope it lends you a few new tips!

Isle Royale

January 28th, 2007 Sandra Friend

I’ve posted an article that includes a segment on my Isle Royale backpacking experience last summer over on Friend | Travels. I can just imagine how icy it is up there right now! It’s a crisp night with a hard freeze expected here in Central Florida, so if you’re headed out backpacking in Florida this week, pack that fleece and zero-degree sleeping bag!

Hiking Corfu

Another diversion: I’m digging out old stories of hiking and travel and populating another site of mine, Friend | Travels. I just posted a lengthy piece on HIKING CORFU: Greece’s Verdant Isle, a place I truly miss.

Crashed

Had a problem with an upgrade of Drupal, and like me, the system crashed. I’d rather be hiking…hope you are!
