[at-l] Thoughts of Slackpacking: in few words...

[sloetoe@yahoo.com (Sloetoe)]

1) Throughhiking is a self-study in voluntary deprivation.

2) Visits to town, trail angels, and slackpacking reduce
deprivation.

3) The magic that happens to *you*, out on the trail, happens
through that deprivation, as it focuses your whole sense of
being on what is truly important -- in your life, in your hike,
in your pack, in that moment.

4) The less deprivation, the less focus, the less of a hike, and
the less of an impact *of* the hike.

5) There's a reason it's called "The Adventure of a Lifetime."
