The gerund in the sentence provided above is backpacking. Gerunds are verbs in -ing form but function as a noun. In this sentence, it functions as a  direct object because it answers the question "what". By this, we can construct the question "What popular pastime is being talked about?".

What is the resolution of the short story “condensed milk”?
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

He’d pay for his office job with our blood, with my blood. I don’t remember what I did that day nor how I worked. As the name suggests condensed milk is milk that has been condensed to about 1/3 of its original volume by evaporating the liquid over low slow cooking. "Condensed Milk" is one of the autobiographical stories of Varlam Shalamov, who spent more than 20 years in Stalin's gulags in the mid-20th century. Here is my short story that I wrote for my Creative Writing class. The Seven Sentence Story. The main purpose of adding sugar is to prolong the shelf life of condensed milk, which can sit on room temperature shelves for years.
