It is that time of the year when the trees show their true colors and those darn pesky bugs decide to go on vacation. Yes, I am talking about Fall. It is a perfect time to go backpacking, day hiking, car camping and much much more.
I prefer to head to the mountains of North Carolina to tour the Blue Ridge Parkway to see the trees in all the magnificent colors. You have to plan ahead because old man winter tends to spread his ice hand across the parkway before you know it.
If you are interested in getting out to go backpacking or hiking one of our local gear stores here in Nashville is hosting Backpacking 201.
