As the title says, one of my friends wants to go on a backpacking trip with me. Usually I like to be very spontaneous and sorta “rough it”, which would definitely not be good for the guy. I planned out a nice flat-ish 30 km route for us where we can watch the sunrise and the sunset from an overlook. What are some things that I should do in order to make his first trip a little better?

    Are you going into bear or moose country? Better discuss wildlife safety before you’re face to face with something.

    Also having some sort of emergency plan in case something happens to you and your inexperienced friend is your only lifeline.
