Question: Can someone suggest a good personal gps unit for hiking and kayaking?
I am looking for a personal gps unit for hiking and kayaking. I saw one not too long ago that works very very simply. You turn it on and mark your position when starting out and it tells you how to get back. That’s all it does. It is meant to be worn on a jacket zipper or a lanyard. Can someone tall me where to find it or suggest something else? Thanks in advance.

Question: What’s the biggest state park / hiking trail in or around Maryland?
All of the hiking trails and parks I know of are very small and close to busy roads. Doesn’t really feel like nature. Where can I go that would actually remove me somewhat from civilization?

I was following your question for a couple days in hopes of getting info myself. Since no one answered so far, I just say I know of a couple nice places but I’m not sure if they’re big enough for you.
1. Oregon Ridge in Hunt Valley, MD. Nice with hills.

2. McKeldin area in Marriottsville , MD
http://www.dnr.state.md.us/publiclands/central/patapscovalley.html
Both the above are good for 1-2 hour hikes (maybe 3-5 miles depending on how many side trails you take)
3. If these aren’t big enough, you can head on out to the Catoctin Mountain Park. There are many miles of trails out there.

Question: Is there any swimming in Florida that not a lot of people know about? Or hiking trails in miami Florida?
I just moved to Miami Florida and I love nature and want to know is there any swimming holes that not a lot of people know about that you would need to hike to? Or any hiking trails? I love going hiking to places where There is not a lot of people and any other places that not a lot of people know about. It might make no sense but someone please help me!(: thank you so much.
Answer:
Answer by Amused Contestant
I know of no swimming holes. Even if I did, I would never use them because of large carnivorous reptiles that may be lurking.
Hiking is a different story. Taking into consideration that we’re in a very urban area in Miami-Dade and Broward, there are several city and county parks that have hiking trails, each with an abundance of local flora and fauna. Getting further away from the urban area, Jonathan Dickinson Park near Jupiter is wide open for hiking. West of Miami is Shark Valley, which has a great walking/biking trail, but I would do it only in late winter/very early spring. I know that the levees that run along the western canals are good spots for hiking.
No doubt you’ll get better advice if you hook up with one of the local hiking clubs in the area…

Question: How long does it take to hike at big bend?
I want to take off from work to go hiking at big bend, but need to know about how long it would take for the whole hiking thing.
Answer:
Answer by Summer hiker
The park is HUGE, so it depends on where you want to hike. It would take weeks to hike all the trails in the park. Why don’t you check out some of the day hikes listed on the site. You can also ask for a ranger recommendation when you get to the park.
