Hiking: Cowels Mountain
Friday, August 18 • adventure, hiking, north face, packing list, photography, quick guide, san diego, san diego blogger
This weekend Daniel and I went to Cowles Mountian for a hike! We wanted to get to the top before the clouds burnt off and the sun came out so we started our hike around 7:30am. While it was really hard to get up early, it was so worth it to watch the clouds slowly disintegrate to show the beautiful mountains. We got some beautiful photos at the top and had the chance to just sit and relax after a long week. Once we got down the mountain, it was only 10:00am so we decided to stop and grab some juice! I was never a "juice person" but since moving to San Diego I have grown to love it. Daniel got a green juice that had mango, kale, agave and some other delicious stuff and I got a pink juice that had a lot of fresh fruit in it! By the time we got home it was only about 11am and we still had the whole day to get house stuff done. Starting our Sunday morning by hiking was definitely perfect!
For hiking, I always wear my hat to keep the sun off my face! I also like to wear a tank top and bring a 1/4 zip pullover in case it is a little chilly. I recommend wearing a light pair of leggings or pants when you go hiking to protect your legs from overgrown nature! Also, the hiking boots I picked up at REI were a lifesaver! They have a lot of grip on the bottom and added ankle support so I wasn't worried about rolling my ankles on rocks (especially when going back down the mountain). I will link some of my favorite hiking attire at the end of the post if you're in the market for new gear!

What to Pack in Your Carry On Bag

2. Travel Journal - pack a small journal in case you want to write something down.
3. Pens - for writing in your journal.
4. Passport and Cash - the most important thing when flying!
5. Sunglasses - pack these in the top of your carry on so they don't get squished.
6. Regular Glasses - pack these if you don't wear glasses or are planning on flying in contacts (I highly discourage you to fly in contacts).
7. Warm Socks - bring these for the plane ride (my feet always get cold!)
8. Camera - pack this into your camera case so it doesn't get knocked around.
9. Headphones - to tune out the crying baby or loud laugher on the plane.
10. Face Wipes - these come in handy if you have been flying all day and feel gross.
11. Computer - pack this in an easily accessible spot because you will have to take it out through security.
12. Chapstick - always always always pack this because airplanes can really dry out your lips!
I hope this can help you while you are packing your carry on for your next flight! This list is pretty much everything I put into my tote bag while flying (with the exception of multiple novels). When I travel, I try to pack all of my clothes into a small suitcase so I don't have to worry about checking a bag. I have found that wearing my bulkiest shoes and rolling clothes is very helpful when packing a week or two into a single suitcase. If anyone has any packing tips or things they put into their carry on, I'd love to hear from you!
Thank you for reading my blog!
