  2. I bet your dog loves you for taking him along with you on your adventurous journey!

    Raychelle, wouldnt' it be ironic if other hikers don't pick up their own trash? Guess this calls for trail etiquette for those who do not :)

  3. hiker trash, as i learned it from my Appalachian Trail journey, it means those hikers who live in woods. ha. basically we all are germ in eyes of mother nature. heh. ;)

    yeah i do pick trash up if i see one! The only two states that I didnt pick up were at Maryland and Pennsylvania because of too many trash to pick up. Sad, i know. Most hikers I met didnt have good outdoor ethics (Leave No Trace). I often had to tell them to pick up after themselves.

    We just do best what we can. ;)
