My partner and I went backpacking for the first time this weekend! It was overall a really positive experience, but the hike ended up being longer than it said in the guidebook and it rained the entire way back, so it definitely pushed our limits. The sound of the rain in the forest was lovely and the misty mountain views were still quite stunning.
