Always hike with proper supplies and equipment. Remember flippy floppies may lead to slippy sloppies.

Gotta watch out for those slippy sloppies It's always a good idea to research the route and terrain of a hike before you go and identify the right equipment for your trip. Heels, open-toed shoes, and flip-flops are not ideal for hiking. Go for sturdy, rubber-soled hiking boots with ankle support for dirt and gravel trails or tennis shoes or sneakers for paved, urban pathways.

From your experience, what supplies do you recommend?
