Do you go camping/hiking to get away from people?
I work a job that involves me having to interact with hundreds of customers on a day to day basis, which constantly stresses me out. Due to this, any moments of my days that I can be alone are gloriously blissful. Since my one-week vacation is starting soon, I've been thinking of hiking the northern arm of the Bruce Trail, from Tobermory to Hamilton.
While I don't mind seeing the occasional hiker and am happy to see people enjoying the outdoors, several bad experiences with crowded trails and weekend warriors is making me worried that people will end up ruining this trip. I know I'm being selfish here, but I explicitly go to the woods to hear something other than the constant roar of machinery & human voices. Being surrounded by that noise pollution is slowly making me crazy, and I feel like I can't even get away from it in the wilderness, that one realm that still gives me peace.
