[at-l] HIking as Meditation?

> The other day I was talking with a friend about meditation -- how to do
it,
> what you get from it, that sort of stuff.
>
> After listening to her response, it occurred to me that, for me, hiking
*is*
> a form of meditation.  Whenever I'm out there, just walking along, I can
> clear other thoughts from my mind, and I get lost in the walking aspect of
> it, just watching the world go by at, of course, a very low speed.
> Sometimes it's like the walking creates a hypnotic trance.
>
> Anybody else out there have this sort of response to hiking?
