Don't worry, it's not Da Vinci's code. It means Safety, Navigation, Appreciation, and Knowledge. These are important mind tools to start with if you want to get the most out of your camping and
hiking trips. A good hiker always peg for his own safety. You get a taste of life in the wild, but you certainly don't want to risk your own, right? Look around you and observe the imminent dangers. That's the only way to even see a great escape from harm. But next to saving your life, you don't wish to get lost like a boy. Hiking is for men not wimps, so always explore the idea of a good navigation. Don't be damn stupid, study the map and the trails before you even walk a mile in confusion. We all have our hiking gears and guides, but only one heart to appreciate nature. That's the energy and passion for every step and hike you make. Now that you have the heart, don't leave your brains out. Have you ever considered the hiking trail as a long stretch for a learning experience? Knowledge is the best gift a hiker can get from his bold adventures!
