We're in the ‘the sun is still trying to roast us like a rotisserie chicken’

phase of summer. But cooler hiking weather is coming…

Are you ready? This easy checklist helps us get prepared for when the temp drops to 70° and its time to hit the trail.

No overwhelm, no procrastinating because there's too much work to do before you can go. It'll be done in the comfort of your AC before it's time!

... Read moreAs someone who loves hiking, I’ve found that the transition from the blazing summer heat to cooler, more comfortable weather is the perfect motivation to get organized and ready for the trails. This checklist inspired by The Boho Apothecary’s advice is a lifesaver for ensuring you’re prepared without last-minute stress. One of the best tips is to create a dedicated "Adventure Zone" in your home where all your hiking essentials live. I use a small basket near my entryway to keep things like hiking socks, lightweight layers, my daypack, and trail snacks. Having everything in one spot means when the weather cools and you get that itch to go, you just grab your basket and head out the door. Don’t forget to check your gear before the season changes. Wash your layers, clean your trail shoes, and restock consumables like sunscreen, bug spray, snacks, and your first-aid kit. It’s surprising how often these basics get overlooked until you’re already on the trail! I recommend investing in some storage solutions like under-bed totes or garage shelves dedicated to outdoor gear. This keeps your home clutter-free but your adventure supplies organized. Believe me, in those moments when the sun finally chills out and you’re ready for a hike, there’s nothing worse than scrambling for trekking poles or your rain shell. Also, lightweight layers are a must because mountain or forest temps can fluctuate quickly. And a headlamp is great for early morning or twilight hikes, which are more enjoyable when the sun is not at its peak. Lastly, this checklist approach eliminates overwhelm and procrastination, making it fun to prepare indoors in the cool air conditioning. So, get your outdoor gear sorted now and enjoy every moment when the sun loses its roast. Adventure is sweeter when you're ready!
