QC (in Berlin 7/29-???) on Twitter: "@EmilybyNight when i was a kid i think i used to think hiking had to be really difficult, like it involved mountain climbing somehow. otherwise i didn't understand the packs 😅" / Twitter

I worked for an expedition company that brought girl teens together from across the US (many from NYC, Chicago, LA) for 6 wks of hiking/backpacking in the Southwest. Explaining to big-city teenagers what "hiking" really means always devastated them.

Confession: I didn't know what hiking was until I went away to college. And once I learned what it was my take away was basically "walking that white people have made complicated"
