🌿 Before you start grumbling about the forecast, it’s worth remembering that our beautiful forests, rivers and waterfalls are all made possible by the relentless pitter patter of a billion raindrops. In this video, I’ll cover the preparation basics that you need to start doing today so that rainy weather hiking is a joy, rather than job. 🌿SUBSCRIBE TO CHANNEL: https://www.youtube.com/c/Freewheelin... 🌿 VIDEO’S FEATURED IN TODAY’S VIDEO: 🌿 Routeburn Track    • Routeburn Track, NZ Great Walks 🥾 ⛈ 🏔 🌲   🌿 Greenstone Track    • Epic Multi Day Solo Hike, Greenstone Track...   🌿 Kepler Track    • I was scared we'd be blown off!  🥾 ⛈🏔 🌲 Ke...   🌿 Mangamate Track    • SOLO backpacking adventure! Mangamate Loop...   🌿 Milford Track    • Is this the wettest hike in the world? Mil...   🌿 Leitch’s Track    • Beautiful camp far from everywhere 🌲🌳🏕🌳🌲   🌿 Umukarikari Track    • My hardest night in a tent!   🥾 🌲🏕🌲 🥾 Umuk...   I live on an island in the Pacific, one that gets plenty of rain, sometimes a little too much! I decided a couple of years back that if i was to continue to enjoy nature all year round, I’d need to make the most of every season, whatever the weather. There was no point in waiting for summer to arrive as sometimes it didn’t! —————————————————————————— Hiking | Camping | Biking | Kayaking | Exploring | Outdoors | Bushcraft Thanks for visiting my channel, my mission is to inspire and motivate others to spend time in nature and reconnect with the outdoors, wherever that might be and at whatever level they are comfortable with. The best things in life happen when we're outside of our comfort zone and until we push our boundaries, we'll never know what we like or what we're capable of. Independent and self-supported travel is for all of us however sometimes knowing where to start, how to prepare or what to expect can be a little overwhelming. I'm here to help and encourage you on your way. 🌿SUBSCRIBE TO CHANNEL: https://www.youtube.com/c/Freewheelin... 🌿 CONNECT WITH ME: https://www.freewheelingkiwi.com 🌿 SUPPORT THE CHANNEL: patreon.com/freewheelingkiwi 🌿 SIGN UP FOR THE AWESOME ADVENTURE NEWSLETTER: https://www.freewheelingkiwi.com/news...
