WELCOME TO YOUR GO-TO RESOURCE FOR ALL THINGS HIKING AND BACKPACKING.
From guides on long-distance trails and thru-hikes to advice on hiking and backpacking gear, this blog is here to help you take on your next outdoor adventure with confidence.

Hi, I’m Erin!
I’m a photographer, long-distance hiker, backpacker, and just overall nature lover. In 2022, I completed a 93-day thru-hike of the 2,653-mile Pacific Crest Trail and a 28-day thru-hike of the 800-mile Arizona Trail. I loved it so much, in 2023 I also thru-hiked the Continental Divide Trail in 110 days. I most recently hiked the Wonderland Trail in 2024.
Erin Exploring is a blog for those who love hiking, outdoor adventures, and want to explore this beautiful world a little more.
Here, I hope to inspire your next adventure in the outdoors and find the same happiness in nature that I have found.
