Whether it is a spontaneous day hike on a local trail or a well-planned backpacking trip through remote wilderness, we all want to document our favorite outdoor experiences, either for personal memories or to share them with others. Capturing striking images in varying terrain and quickly changing conditions, however, requires sound knowledge and careful preparation, especially when gear choices are limited.
