Columbia Fishing Shirts for Hiking and Backpacking
Columbia fishing shirts, such as the popular PFG (Performance Fishing Gear) Bahama II line, which I’m wearing above, have a strong following among hikers, not just anglers. Their lightweight, technical fabrics and practical features make them a smart alternative to traditional hiking shirts, especially in hot, sunny, or buggy environments. Relatively inexpensive, they last a long time, and for added insect protection, you can send them to InsectShield to be treated with Permethrin in a process that lasts for 70 washings.

フィリップ・ヴェルナー
Philip Werner is a full-time outdoor author and backpacker who resides in New England. The name of this site, Section Hiker, refers to Vermont’s 272-mile “The Long Trail” which I section hiked in 2008 in addition to hiking 1400 miles of the Appalachian Trail. I’ve also hiked and thru-hiked the TGO Challenge (Coast-to-Coast across Scotland) twice, and I’m currently section hiking the Cape Wrath Trail, also in Scotland.
But my heart belongs to New Hampshire’s White Mountains and Vermont’s Green Mountains, where I split my time and do most of my hiking and backpacking. I’m the 36th person to finish hiking all 1440 miles of the White Mountain National Forest trail system and the 3rd person to do it twice. I’ve also climbed all 48 of the 4000 footers in the White Mountains 12 times (576 summits) once in each calendar month of the year. While I love hiking trails and backpacking, I am also a compulsive off-trail hiker and enjoy spending the day Tenkara fly fishing on mountain streams you can only walk to.
