Swimhiking

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I chose swim hiking because I myself want to know more about the topic. I at first was looking for swimming as I am a swimmer and figured I would do something I am interested in, but then I stumbled upon swimhiking and was taken back by the name.

Evaluate the article
Conceived by Peter Hayes, swimhiking is an outdoor activity that combines outdoor swimming and hiking. The wikipedia page includes two short sections, the main topic section, swimhiking, and a second section titled external links. The page is brief and seems to provide little information and history on the topic.

It seems to provide a pretty good explanation of the topic "swimhiking", it explains that while hiking and you encounter a body of water, you will change into swim clothes, put your hiking clothes in a bag and swim across the water, after this you will change back in to your clothes and continue hiking. The wiki page contains links to video which might help understand more visually what the topic would look like. The article has about all the detail it needs, except for the year that swimhiking was invented. The article mentions the person and place that found the term, but fails to mention a date or time. Overall the neutral article provides sound details on the topic it discusses and is concise and not over detailed.
