To help those wanting to get away from city life, cer- tain areas are set aside as wilderness, and primitive areas by the government. Back- packers must use existing trails and shelters in these areas because roads, build- ings and other types of permanent occupancy are not allowed. Backpacking lets us catch glimpses of America's wild-Jif- e in their natural surroundings, not in zoos or museums. If you've never done any backpacking and decide to start just where do ydu begin? Unlike camping out in a car, trailer, or camper, backpacking calls for more detailed planning. Your physical condition plays an important role in backpacking because walking with a pack on your back can be exhausting. Experienced backpackers take great pride in traveling light.

We tend to ride everywhere, even when our destination may be within walking distance, because of the convenience of mechanical trans- portation. But to get to the packers must walk. Tough feet are a must y in hiking and is best the way to walking them. toughen You should consider buyhiking ing medium-weigback-countr- y, back-countr- ht boots. Lightweight shoes aren't rugged enough and tennis shoes are definitely out. Boots should be strong enough to resist rock abrasion and be waterproof. For comfort, support, warmth and protection, they should also be padded around the ankle. Padding will hold the heel in place to prevent slip-- , ping and irritation. According to the U.S. Forest Service,, most backpackers prefer 6 to 10 inch lace boots with synthetic or rubber soles. The boots should fit comfortably over two pairs of socks - one light and one heavy and be broken in well before the first - long hike. If you are not prepared to spend the $25 to $50 for good hiking boots, Army combat boots also work well.

The framed rucksack and back-countr- y back-countr- e assembly are both considered good for pack-fram- backpacking. You, however, must decide which pack will r I - - -- be the best for you. The framed rucksack is bad sically a Because the carrying system. pack hangs slightly away from a persons back, it tends to pull backward on the shoulders. As a result, the pull may be uncomfortable with a heavy load. e The assembly, on the other hand, puts the load high and close to the back. Hie backward pull is eliminated because the top of the pack tips forward. The hips then bear the weight of the load. Sleeping bags come in different shapes and sizes so the bag that's right for you may not do for someone else. The bag should fit your body. shoulder-suspende- pack-fram- Sleeping bags may be made of goose down or polyester fiberfills such as Dacron and Polyguard. A synthetic- -' filled sleeping bag will dry about half as much as a down bag. They're also less expen-- . sive and more durable, but not as warm as down. For comfort and insulation from the ground, an air mattress or foam pad should also be packed. Hie foam pad's only disadvantage is its bulk, while an air mattress can spring a leak. quickly when wet and weighs A tent comes in handy when in the although some backpackers don't consider it a necessity. It does provide protection from weather and from mosquitos and other biting insects..
