I'm Founder of National Backpackers Day and Backpacking and Hiking Day in Arkansas on Facebook. I'm an avid backpacker, and look to travel and backpack to as many National Parks / Forest/ Wilderness Areas, as I can. I raised 4 children and have backpacked in the Smokies, Colorado, and Utah, and Maine. I looking to meet as many like minded hikers as possible. Thanks
