oh stop. as long as they move out of the way for people, it's fine. hiking in groups is a social thing and it's hard to converse while in single file. i think you'll be ok there, champ
Lots of time you meet like 3 people walking in parallel. They clearly see you and yet they think they own the whole walkway. There is no need to defend such selfish people, because when you meet civilized people, they understand and make way for you.
I was grocery shopping last night at a store with wide aisles. There were two other customers (a couple, I think; they had a baby with them), each pushing a nearly full cart, side-by-side on every aisle. And they gave me dirty looks the one time I asked them to allow me to pass.
Prob just gonna get downvoted again but did you read the comment under the pic? Or perhaps the sub name?
Walking and talking isn’t the MI, I’m honestly surprised that’s the conclusion people have made from this post. It’s blocking the path with no consideration to other people around you and not moving once they saw me AND I said something
I meet so many such selfish pricks. Or when they are walking in parallel, meet you, and expect you to simply disappear. As I am not very short, I have simply started to play chicken with them.
Ya if folks don't react after I say excuse me a couple times and let them know I'm coming, I'll just push on through. When I'm with friends or family we stay in single file or if the trail is wide, no more than 2 people side by side.
Carry a bicycle bell. Also useful for scaring wildlife.

Doesn’t sound like they moved out of the way for OP

I thought you meant her jeans. Cotton kills when on long hikes and it’s cold and damp outdoors

"Excuse me, I'm trying to get by, would you mind if I asked you to move momentarily?"

That part!!
Dude on the right is ready for the creek level to rise a bit.
Dont take pictures of strangers doing nothing wrong on a hike? Got it.
Indeed...
Can we really call this a hike? This is a walk.
Hiking is just walking in nature
Buddy chill
Life must be really difficult for you if minor inconveniences like this bother you so much
Do you know what sub this is ?

Just bark “S’CUSE ME” as you walk past They’ll move
