Introduction to Hiking with Mario Medici

Interested in hiking but don’t know where to start? Introduction to Hiking will introduce you to the basics of hiking, e.g., what to wear, bring, local hiking locations, etc., and some sample starter hikes you might enjoy exploring. You can discover the beauty of nature at whatever pace you’re comfortable with. With a little planning and the right equipment, it’s an activity that almost anyone can do. Aside from the seasonal beauty of nature, many of the local hiking trails contain historical ruins, and in most cases, stories to go with them. Hikers old or new, non-hikers, and area historians will all find something of interest in this slide presentation.

Mario Medici is a member of Adirondack Mountain Club (ADK) with over 30 years of hiking and hike leader experience.
