Take It Day By Day - A series about a man who is reintroducing nature, backpacking, hiking and camping back into his life and how it is changing him.

Take It Day By Day - You want to start hiking - Where do you begin? I talk briefly about the very simple initial steps to getting started.

Take It Day By Day - My first hiking outing to learn about what I need. Also, trail footage at Lake Watonga in Roman Nose State Park. If you only want to see my hiking goals and what I learned during this hike, watch the first 4-1/2 minutes and then skip to 18:35 in the video.

Take It Day By Day - Outing #2 - Very short video at Lake McMurtry (Yellow Trail). After Outing #1 I realized I needed a closer location and one with more variety. In this video I briefly talk about that and my recent experience at Lake McMurtry. Includes a series of snapshots of the lake, trail and other scenery.

Take It Day By Day - I have done several hikes and am in need of some new gear, if I am going to take my plan a step further and do a multi-day hike. This is not a review of all my gear. Just an overview of the main items I really had to replace if I was going to do a real backpacking trip (and a couple of other small things I got as gifts recently). I will do a more detailed review of everything in future videos. "Andake 780g" Ultralight Tent" - $99 (Mine cost $75 because it had a couple of small visual defects) https://www.amazon.com/Andake-Double-... "Sawyer Squeeze" Water Filter - $30: https://www.walmart.com/ip/Sawyer-Pro... "Granite Gear Crown 2 - 60 liter" Backpack "Altra Lone Peak 3.5" Trail Runner Shoes "Kelty Cosmic Down 20" Sleeping Bag

Take It Day By Day - Where and when will I do my first multi-day hike?! It's time to decide... And this decision will lead to the launch of a separate series!!!

Take It Day By Day - August 2019: 3-day trip to Elk City Lake Trail in Kansas.
