Known as @pepper.steps on social media, this hiker absolutely loves documenting her excursions along various nature trails. In fact, she’s realized that she might be spending more time taking pictures and videos than actually walking!
“I have no idea why my hikes always take so long,” she joked.
This woman was also curious to know if other hikers ran into the same problem. In her caption, she asked commenters to weigh in.
“Please tell me I’m not the only one who does this?!” Pepper wrote. “I literally have over ten thousand photos and videos on my phone currently (yikes) and I SWEAR, over half of them are different angles on a nice looking log, or a rock I thought looked funny.”
Apparently, plenty of people could relate to Pepper’s situation.
“Honestly me,” replied one user. “I’ll spend 20 minutes taking pictures of cool mushrooms trying to get the right angle.”
Another added, “My camera roll has nine million pictures of moss.”
It’s worth pointing out that there’s nothing wrong with snapping photos during a hike, even if it takes a long time. At the end of the day, hiking is supposed to be fun! As long as you’re not hurting anyone else, you should be able to enjoy this activity in whatever way you want.
