Travelers are crossing the globe and stopping into Charlotte’s Original Outdoor Store to outfit themselves for these adventures, ensuring that they have the gear needed to set themselves up for success! So naturally, we are excited that Michael Smith from the Adventure Marketing Group is joining the program to talk packs and packing, trekking poles and adventuring, as well as to share the mantra that packing “less is more”.
In fact, Michael says that packing smaller helps for more comfortable travel by staying within a 30 Liter Pack or less. This small, light hiking pack is a must; they’re great for using as a personal bag for an airline flight but also perfect for exploring locally or internationally.
The other item that is one of the most impactful items for active walking adventures (but many times overlooked) are trekking poles. “You’ll need these for stability and support”, Smith explains. They help your feet, your ankles, knees, hips, and back. They’re also great for efficiency and energy preservation!
