Episode Summary: In this episode we cover thatoh-so-lovely strip of the PCT known as the Hat Rim Trail. A hiker café awaited us before starting, but then the brutal heat was a poor hiking companion for Basecamp. Oh, we met Jupiter and didn’t even know it at first! A magical trailangel, Chris Hyde, treated us like royalty from Gondor, Deuces wore tailor-made custom-fitted cutoff jean shorts, we skipped Burney Falls to eat ice cream and order Jolly Gear matching shirts, two bucks ate our pee, Basecamp’s friendshosted us, and we took a poorly planned zero in Dunsmuir, which we would probably avoid over heading into Shasta! We wrap up in our Environmental Corner segment with my (Yeti) covering the findings from my capstone project (thesis)about trash on trail. I found a lot…

Episode Summary: In this episode we talk through our first hiking-related book review of Glen Van Peski's work, take less. do more. SURPRISING LIFE LESSONS IN GENEROSITY, GRATITUDE, AND CURIOSITY FROM AN ULTRALIGHT BACKPACKER.

For almost 2 hours, we were lucky enough to have Glen on our show to cover a few of his anecdotes from the ultralight backpacking universe, but also some more introspective insights on life, having gratitude and giving to others, while also prioritizing the needs of our loved ones and ourselves. Glen has quite the tale to tell, including how to better stay connected to those you've met/think about often, his stunning wife, living a minimalist lifestyle, and his harrowing friend that saved Glen's life. We'd love to have him back for a part 2 to cover more of his ultralight hacks, but until then, here's enough content to wet your whistle.

We wanted to take a short break from our PCT saga and feel like the title and cover say it all for this week's episode! This episode covers all things Loba, our husky. We discuss our relationship and how it has become oh so much better with her, some recent hiking shenanigans including a tumble over a waterfall, how she helps us sleep at night, and so much more. Thanks for listening.
