Backpacking, by comparison, is a tranquil pursuit. Its usually done to escape crowds, and you carry all your supplies on your back. 　　HIGHLANDER Adventure Festival mashes the two together, though.

　　Terlingua, Texas, doesn’t have a lot of people. The tiny settlement (population 100ish) is literally a ghost town, where a handful of homes and businesses mingle with a cemetery and the stone ruins of a late 1800s mining camp.
