Fernando M.

Fernando is making adjustments to a student's gear.   It's on the trail to the village of Supai.   I am a volunteer.   We adjust the students backpacks at Hilltop before the hike.   Many of them loosen the hip belt because it feels too tight or there is a fold under the belt.   later I see them struggling to keep up so I stop to readjust their belt.   I explain the reason it's tight is that their shoulders and back are not strong enough to carry the weight for 12 miles, but their legs are.
