I went with my family (2 adults, 2 kids) on a camping trip this past labor day weekend. We were walking on a trail and spotted a large group (about 6 people) headed towards us. We got in a single file line while the party coming towards us was walking 3-across on the trail. We still had to step aside off the trail to avoid walking into each other. The other party didn’t step to the side at all. I thought it was extremely rude and told my husband I couldn’t stand it when people had no trail etiquette. After doing some swimming, we were headed back to our campsite when we saw the SAME group walking towards us from the other direction. We got in single-file again, except this time, I told myself I wasn’t moving off the trail for these people. As we approached, they carried on their conversation acting like they didn’t see us and one of the men ran into me. He said “Hey! Be careful!” I said “Excuse me? You shouldn’t be walking so spread out on the trail. It’s rude expecting someone to move for you.” He then asked me if I was calling his family rude, and my husband just grabbed my arm and told me to leave it. We just walked away. My husband said I shouldn’t have started anything, I should have just moved over like I did before and avoided a confrontation. I was pissed that they acted like they owned the trail. Am I the asshole for not moving?
