Well I went out for lunch and it seems that people are already up here for Memorial Day! The entire Highland Hiker staff would like to welcome each and every visitor this weekend.

We will have our warehouse open today and tomorrow from 10am to 5pm. We have got some great stuff in the last few weeks so come and check it out!

If you are planning to get outdoors this weekend, the weather is due to be great for that! Sunday looks to be just beautiful with mid 70’s and sunny. I am going to the lake on Sunday and am so excited to get back on the water!

But don’t forget your personal safety while being outdoors. Wear clothing that will help block the sun. Put on sunscreen to keep the harmful rays off your skin. Wear your Buzz Off clothing or use some bug repellent.

If hiking alone or with others, always tell someone where you are headed and when you expect to return. Remember to take plenty of water with you. You may think it is not hot enough to dehydrate but dehydration can happen any time of year. If you are physically active, make sure to drink plenty of water throughout the day. Wear comfortable hiking socks and shoes. And don’t forget your day hike guide!
