Some friends and I want to take a trip to northern Canada to explore the outdoors, but none of us have ever done anything other than single-day hiking trips before. My question is, do you think we should attempt backpacking when we're all noobs, or should we just get a campsite and hike during the day like we're used to? I'm not sure I'm ready to make the transition, especially considering that I'd have to buy all-new, more portable gear.
