About me
Although I’m not naked nor do I backpack naked, (So that’s my story and I’m sticking to it), this is my way of backpacking, biking, hiking, and kayaking lightweight and comfortably.
Backpacking doesn’t have to be a burden. Would you like to explore the world around you with the mindset you were supposed to? Would you like to be able to relax while doing so? Follow me to some awesome adventures while enjoying nature, Bare. I’m not even going to judge you. No matter how Bare you go, or what you wear while doing it.
The mission of Backpacking Bare is to build a community of nature loving individuals who want to commune with nature. Who want to improve their mental as well as physical health, enjoying every moment. Let me inspire you.
Life has gotten to be too stressful and you deserve a break. No matter how short or long your outing, it needs to be relaxing.
So go ahead and take that break with me. In the process we can learn to use self-made products as well as try some from sponsors just to see how Bare we can be.
PLACES TO FIND PEACE
So many to chose from
There will be places. Places on this earth you could only imagine without going there. And in your imagination you could never create the feeling you get by being there.
Services
My services? My services will be giving you all I can give behind the lens to show what you are missing while just looking at this website
Hiking on all types of terrain
With this content I will be showing different tips and tricks to make your hiking easier and safer and more fun wherever and however long your hike.
Camping with your vehicle
Nothing like the thrill of sleeping in your vehicle where permitted. But seriously, this will include camping out of your vehicle at campgrounds as well.
Biking to your spot
Yes, we do bike to camping or picnicking spots. There are designated places to camp on Rails to Trails as well as picnic tables to stop and take a lunch. Nothing wrong with laying out a blanket next to a lake on the trail either
Lots of pictures and videos from my travels
.I will be adding pictures along the way to share my travels and show some of the little things that don’t particularly need a whole video or article to explain.
Let’s kayak!
Kayak camping or just finding a spot out on the lake where no one else can get to to have lunch. Throw in some fishing or swimming and make a day of it.
Safety First
Nothing ruins an outing like an accident. I will try to show you how I prevent getting hurt as I go along. I will be reviewing some trails as well so I will be showing how to plan ahead for different situations. Hopefully you will never have to address any injuries but I will list simple things to do as well as resources.
