Hiking/Camping/Outdoorsy Types

[MissInformation]

Does skydiving count as outdoorsy? If so, that's the most fun outdoorsy thing I've done. The most strangely interesting outdoorsy thing I've ever done is marsh-mucking. And yes, that involves a marsh and muck. Once the mud in the marsh reaches knee level, you have to crawl to go any further. My sister was a nature freak and used to drag me along on trips like this. She tried to teach me what I could eat in the marsh to survive if I got lost. The cat-o-nine tails was not too bad tasting, but I drew the line at a live grass shrimp.

I would love to do some more camping, I've only been a few times. The first time I ever went was a real nightmare, but at least I was willing to go again. I don't care much for hiking trips because the people tend to just want to keep moving at a fast, steady pace and I like to meander and stop and look at things along the way so I always get snarled at for being poky.

Other outdoorsy things that I've enjoyed are cross-country skiing, rafting, tubing (but only when the water level in the river is high) and horseback riding.

Things I would like to do in the future are hang-gliding and spelunking.
