Introduction

Thanks for checking out my blog! I hope you find these activities worthwhile your time to enjoy the outdoors around Rexburg, Idaho. These activities are planned to be simple and not be extremely pricey because I'm a student right now that can't fork out all that cash! There may be some activities that you may think, "Hey I thought you said not a lot of cash?!" according to your standards but I think the experience is well worth it. Just go out there and enjoy yourselves! I hope you come to love the outdoors as much as I do. Remember to always be safe.

Check-List for Day Hikes

I wanted to give you all a summary of what to expect for any type of day hike. These are things you want to make sure you have in place in order to make the best of your adventure.

• Hiking Shoes, Sandals, or shoes with good ankle and sole support. Your feet will begin to ache if you don't have good support for the sole and ankle in case you trip. When your feet are happy, then so are you! For more information on different types of hiking shoes, check out this great blog: http://hikingdude.com/hiking-boots.php
• Nutritious snacks and meals. Avoid candy and chocolates which give temporary energy but then give you a slump afterwards. Some examples of good snacks I like are: trail mix, energy bars, beef jerky, apples, or some Nature Valley Oats N' Honey bars (classic!)
• A backpack to store items into
• 2-3 liters of water
• Sunscreen
• Bug repellent (if needed for the area)
• Camera

That should give you a great start to any trail you want to hike. Go out there and have some fun!
