I pursued the "solo backpacking" adventure last year for the first time and have gone on 3 trips since by myself. I wanted to get any females perspective on the ability to sleep at night alone in the woods. I have had 1-2 experiences where I actually slept decently, other than that I have been shaking in my sleeping bag from the noises that keep me awake. I hate to have to rely on other people to go with me but I am afraid I may have just finished my last solo trip, which was wonderful but not sure worth the risk or the lack of sleep and anxiety during the night! During the day I am fine and it's perfect but when the sun goes down my heart speeds up...
