Over the Thanksgiving holiday I went hiking with my brother on some local trails. When we set out it was beautiful out, but as the sun started to go down on the way back the temperature dropped a good 15*F and the wind picked up.
I, of course, had packed some gloves, a hat, and a second set of nice dry socks in my day pack just in case. My brother didn't, instead deciding to travel light since we were local and we both know the trails by heart.
Well, Guess who had a more enjoyable hike back?
Glad to see this hiker was properly prepared, both with gear and knowledge.
