Hi Ruchie,
Frankly, it was *&^%^&* cold last year on our backpacking trip during the summer. We were at about 9000' for a day or two, above timberline, and the wind came screaming up the mountain all night. Every year, I forget how awful it is and plan my next backpacking adventure for the summer.
We do hike (day hike) year-round, but in the Northwest, one must always carry Gore-tex. We are lucky around here to have many trails at lower elevations so that we don't have to wait for the snow to melt.
Yes, I do other sports, but I think hiking is my favorite. Is walking your favorite? Do you miss running?
