Different from when you first started

[Shawn]

How do you hike differently now than you did when you first started?

I used to wear a lot of layers no matter what season to keep bugs and snakes from getting me. Now I wear enough layers to be comfortable, but I choose more athletic stuff than anything else. It's no longer about bugs and snakes; it's about moisture management and chaffing prevention.

How about you all? What's changed for you?
