Some backpackers prefer to be on the go every day, doing long through hikes.
Others like to work hard to reach a scenic place and stay put for several days. Avoid taking any cotton clothing when backpacking. Cotton absorbs moisture, is cold when wet, and takes a long time to dry. Polyester synthetic blends are lighter and dry quicker.
