💧 Water isn’t always the whole story on the trail.

During long hikes—especially in hot weather or when you’re sweating heavily—you’re losing both water and electrolytes. Sodium, potassium, magnesium and other electrolytes all play a role in normal muscle, nerve and fluid balance.

A simple trail reminder:
💧 Drink regularly
⚡ Consider electrolytes on long, hot or high-sweat hikes
🥜 Pack balanced trail food
🌡️ Adjust hydration to the weather, intensity and duration

Hydration isn’t about drinking as much water as possible. It’s about replacing what your body actually loses.

Save this for your next long hike. 🥾⛰️
