Tom Mangan wrote a couple of good posts yesterday on his Bay Area Hiking Blog, Two-Heel Drive, about starting your own blog. Tom says that documenting your hiking experience and sharing it with the rest of the world is a great way to connect with other interested hikers.
Heck, if John Muir were alive to day, he would have a blog. How do I know? Because the only thing as voluminous as Muir’s backcountry travels was the volume of his writings documenting them.
