Camping, Tenting & Hiking are great ways to get back in touch with nature and your inner self... HIKING WHEN THE STORM LOOMSTwelve noon and the sky was as black as midnight with the still hot air pulsating about us like an invisible shroud. Lightening suddenly split the air and a heavy pelting of rain spawned from the sky like fledgings released from the nest. Storms hit fast and hard, so hiker beware. Dry creek beds may swell swiftly, from lamb to lion in a matter of minutes. Lightening is also a formable foe to hikers and campers alike. Most outdoorsman know to take cover when storms loom overhead, but if one is out in the wild without a radio or other such modes of media, how can storms be predicted? The answer lies in nature itself. 1. Winds - Generally, before a change in the weather, strong winds may suddenly kick up OR the atmosphere may become as still as death. 2. Wildlife - When violent weather threatens, wildlife usually becomes very active. Possums may appear in daylight if you're near cattle, they may turn their backs against the storm, even before it arrives. Animals may also mull together. 3. Clouds - know the types of cloud formations and the type of weather they deliver for they may spell danger.   Rockface | Fossils in the Midst | Hiking to Nesting Grounds | The Velvet Hiker | Mirror, Mirror on the Pond | Hiking, Falling  Manna From Heaven | Hiker's Bread Recipe | Hiker From Hail Thousands of pages of free stories at Trinity Moon.
