Do you remember what it feels like to have the sun on your face, the wind in your hair, and your ankles covered in dirt? Winter has been long and dark, but ahead of us, nature lovers rejoice that spring is on the way! With the clouds parting above us and a renewed motivation to get back in shape, hikers from every walk of life (pun intended) are flocking back to the trailheads, dusting off their hiking boots, and preparing three-days-worth of granola bars and water rations. Although it's overkill for the beginner-level, 30-minute hike we have ahead of us, many recreational hikers are just happy to be outside again.

So stock up on bug spray, fill up your water canteen, and grab your camping backpack, because nature's beauty awaits you just beyond your front door. Ignore your cracking knees, aching back, and the derogatory 7-year-old in jelly sandals passing you up on the trail, by the end of the season, you'll be fit as a fiddle!

Until then, laugh it off with these inspiring hiking memes.
