Compared to their INTJ cousins, INFJs are slightly more likely to prefer "day hiking" over "overnight backpacking" but are active enthusiasts of the latter as well.
The choices of other enjoyed activities suggest they share a similar attraction to more physically challenging outdoor activities (mountain & rock climbing, mtn biking ) - yet the text of the comments seem not to emphasize the rigor of some of the INTJ comments.
They are also more likely to choose a canoe over a kayak.
