In season two of The Green Tunnel, we have some fantastic new stories for you on the history of the Appalachian Trail. We've interviewed hikers in the wild, people who take care of the trail, historians, authors, and many others to bring you some new perspectives on America's oldest and most iconic long-distance hiking trail. 

You've heard of decompression walks, letting your dog enjoy nature and sniff away from the hustle and bustle of urban life.How about a 1600-mile decompression walk?Luna (Marijke) and Werewolf (Scott) hiked the Pacific Crest Trail (2650 miles)  for their honeymoon and after clearing the desert section in Southern California, their dog SupDog (“real” name Balu) joined them for the remainder of the trail.Marijke tells us about the mindset they needed to be in (Hike Your Dogs Hike), the accommodations they made for him and so much more.What food did they bring?What's it like bringing a black dog in warm weather?How did they deal with judgment from others?What are town visits like? (“scamming” a sausage off the local butcher anyone?)She also doesn't gloss over the hard stuff. SupDog was sound sensitive and on day 1 of him joining there's dynamite blasting on trail. Now what?Or that time where he would mysteriously refuse to walk every late afternoon and it took a while to figure out what was going on.As Marijke explains it was just a stringing together of a series of decisions, constantly evaluating where you are at and what is the best way forward based on the situation as it is.One of my favorite parts is where Marijke explains that SupDog was sound sensitive and the choice was simply between him being sound sensitive at home or sound sensitive on the trail with the family who loves him. It doesn't sound like too hard of a choice to make, when you put it that way.After coming back home Marijke and Scott decided to pay it forward and they started the Thru-Hiker Dog Facebook Group to exchange information with those considering thru-hiking with their dog that is judgment free.I am a member of that group and if you're considering hiking longer distances with your dog I highly encourage you to join. You will be able to ask all the questions you need to figure out what works for you and your dog. Marijke also mentions that her present dog probably is not a long-distance trail dog. This is one conclusion you might come to as well based on the information shared freely within the group.It's all about what you believe is right for you and your dog.Links:The Thru-hiker Dogs Facebook Group, that was started by Marijke and Scott to provide dog guardians with information, tips, and tricks, given by people who've actually been there and done that:https://www.facebook.com/groups/907294749289972The dehydrated dog food SupDog was eating on trail:https://www.thehonestkitchen.com/The Pacific Crest Trail Association:https://www.pcta.org/The other two major long-distance trails:The Appalachian Trail: https://appalachiantrail.org/The Continental Divide Trail: https://continentaldividetrail.org/MSR Gear: https://www.msrgear.com/

If you feel guilty about wanting to work less, earn more and do what you love, this is for you. In this episode, I give you 7 reasons to prove that creating a life of alignment in which you have the resources to enjoy yourself is an act of revolution.

In this episode, Courtney talks with Josh and Cassie Sutton about their recent trip with their 6 year old son, Harvey and about their 2021 thru-hike of the Appalachian Trail. Listen in as Cassie and Josh explain why they made the choice to embrace adventure, how they do not take their time for granted and they answer the question: "How can you adventure as a family?" Josh, Cassie, and Harvey Sutton live in Lynchburg, VA. After realizing that a healthy retirement wasn't guaranteed, they decided to restructure their life to one filled with extraordinary stories by taking mini retirements throughout their life. After having their son Harvey in 2016, they began saving for their first mini retirement in 2021, to hike the entire Appalachian Trail as a family. Harvey would be 4 years old when they began in January 2021 and finished at 5 years 4 months old. After thru hiking the East Coast, they have gone on to hike the John Muir Trail in California and continue to plan more adventures as a family.

You don't have to run the Appalachian Trail all at once, you can break it up just like Meg Landymore did and "Section Run" the AT. Meg shares the story of why she decided to see the AT one piece at a time.

Episode No. 567 features artist Rose B. Simpson and author Brent Martin. The Institute for Contemporary Art, Boston is showing "Rose B. Simpson: Legacies," an exhibition of 14 sculptures Simpson has made over the last eight years. It was curated by Jeffrey De Blois and is on view through January 29, 2023. Rose B. Simpson is included in two other New England presentations: her Counterculture is installed at Field Farm, a Trustees property in Williamstown, Mass.; and in "Ceramics in the Expanded Field," at MASS MoCA. Counterculture was organized by Jamilee Lacy and will be on view through April 30, 2023. "Ceramics," which is up until early March 2023, was curated by Susan Cross. This fall The Fabric Workshop and Museum in Philadelphia will feature "Rose B. Simpson: Dream House." The exhibition opens October 7. Across ceramic sculpture, performance, installation, and more, Simpson's work addresses ideas as far ranging as resistance, apocalypse, spirituality, and automobile design. Museums such as the University of New Mexico Art Museum (Simpson lives in Santa Clara Pueblo), Nevada Museum of Art, the Savannah College of Art and Design's SCAD Museum of Art, and the Pomona College Museum of Art have all presented solo exhibitions of her work, and Simpson has been in group shows at the Henry Art Gallery, the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, the Cleveland Museum of Art, the Denver Museum of Art, and plenty more. Martin discusses his new book "George Masa's Wild Vision," which was recently published by Hub City Press. Masa was an Asheville, North Carolina-based photographer who had a significant impact on the establishment of Great Smoky Mountains National Park and on determining the Southern route of the Appalachian Trail, the two crown jewels of the eastern United States' natural infrastructure. Amazon and Indiebound offer the book for around $25.

The John Muir Trail is known as one of the most brutal FKTs on a thru-hike to nab in the United States; especially if you're going for the fastest known time on that trail. It's short enough to need speed. But the terrain and elevation gain is tough enough to challenge even the most seasoned thru-hiker. So, when Jeff Garmire ventured out to break the unsupported FKT for the JMT, he knew he was in for a challenge. But despite the difficulty of it all, Jeff got it done and secured the FKT in 3 days, 47 minutes, and 56 seconds. Jeff Garmire is one of the most accomplished thru-hikers of all time, having over 15 FKTs under his belt, including ones on the Arizona Trail, Colorado Trail, Long Trail, and now, the JMT. He has also completed the Calender Year Triple Crown, which consists of completing the Appalachian Trail, Pacific Crest Trail, and Continental Divide Trail all in one calendar year. He is also the author of the book, Free Outside, which chronicles his Calendar Year Triple Crown Journey. In this episode, Jeff breaks down the details, stories, and challenges he faced on his JMT unsupported FKT. Plus, he shares how he was able to get over the mental challenges that came from starting and completing the challenge. And he shares the importance of doing big challenges that scare the heck out of you. This is an episode you do not want to miss! Jeff is also coming out with a new film called Free Outside, which documents his unsupported FKT of the Colorado Trail in an epic production that captures the challenge in a way where no unsupported FKT has been documented before. Here's the link to check out the trailer for Free Outside: https://freeoutside.com/film/ Follow Jeff on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thefreeoutside/ Check out Jeff's Book: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1733487506/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=1733487506&linkCode=as2&tag=gar151520-20&linkId=6bee6188005501a108671fe727591857 Follow Joe on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/joecorcione/

Taking on the A.T. is a pilgrimage because of both its beauty and accessibility. Let Joshua Niven and Amber Adams guide you across the best trails that the Appalachian Trail has to offer. Complete with full-color photography, you'll also have hikes suited to every ability, mile-by-mile directional cues, sidebars, and maps.You can find their book at your local bookstore (best option!) or on Amazon. 

A fantastic story of one young man's experience hiking the Appalachian Trail and his journey to find his faith and path in life.

For this episode of The All-Around Adventure Podcast, I'm joined by Rue McKenrick; originator and Executive Director of the American Perimeter Trail. Rue has walked many miles through America's trail systems! He grew up in western Pennsylvania, with the Appalachian Trail running through his backyard. Back in 2003, he walked the entire length Appalachian Trail to complete his first thru-hike. Afterward, he sought out conservation and educational work through several non-profit organizations. Such as the Appalachian Trail Conservancy, Outward Bound, the Appalachian Mountain Club, and Ameri-Corp. Over the next several years he would go on to backpack the Triple Crown. Having already completed the Appalachian Trail, the two remaining trails were the Pacific Crest Trail and the Continental Divide Trail. Not long after completing the Triple Crown, Rue came up with the idea of the American Perimeter Trail and its respective conference. Rue started his scouting trek for the trail in Bend, Oregon back in 2019. And has now completed the 12,000 mile loop around the country! In this episode, Rue shares his experiences from his time doing the Triple Crown and while scouting the American Perimeter Trail. He talks about some of the highlights and challenges that he faced while doing long-distance hikes like these. As well as what's in store for the American Perimeter Trail moving forward!

At the end of August, I hosted a 5-day journaling journey with the goal to realign before Fall by gaining clarity about what you want more of in your life, understanding what works, what doesn't work and what's missing as well as making a plan of action for the end of the year. This episode is a sneak peek into the first 2 days of this experience. If you want more, find me on Instagram to sign up!

**Notes with guest**   **My Commentary** Closing Question: I am striving to be more present and "real", hence Unfiltered. What ways are you trying to be more Unfiltered in your life now? **Show Notes** In this episode, Courtney talks with Paul "Skunkape" Collins, of the Hammock Hangers podcast, and Thom "Dutch" Ressler, founder of Dutchware. They talk about thru-hiking the AT with a hammock, what it is like to innovate how we hike and they answer the question: Why should you try hammock camping? Paul "Skunkape" Collins discovered hammocks back in 2011 when he was planning for a 2012 thru-hike of the Appalachian Trail. His first hammock was the Clark North American. He currently owns 11 hammocks from different cottage vendors, and loves each one of them. A few years ago, in 2020 he became one of the organizers of HangCon, which is the largest annual hammock gathering event in the country, held near Tampa, FL. Paul now has a podcast on the Hiking Radio Network. Paul's show: Hammock Hangers Podcast HangCon: https://hangcon.com/ Thom "Dutch" Ressler thru-hiked the AT in 2003 with a homegrown hammock. His hobby has now become Dutchware, a wildly popular resource for all things hammock! https://dutchwaregear.com/   Remember, I'd love to hear from you on any topic that comes up in the show or if you know someone that would be a great guest for the show.

Our guest today is Clay Bonnyman-Evans, a friend of the show and a previous guest from our early days. Clay came onto the show in 2017 to talk about his 2016 Appalachian Trail thru-hike. Since then, he has racked up a bunch more miles and trails, so we caught up before I headed to hike in California. As always, Clay is witty, thoughtful, and open as we chat about his hiking. He is also an excellent writer, so you can check out his latest book "Adrift on the Pacific Crest Trail: A Thru-Hiking Story" at this link. We discuss what he means by "adrift," and he gives insight to the necessary separation that a thru-hike will cause in relationships. He has more books to check out, on his website, claybonnymanevans.com, and he has offered his email should you want to contact him about anything to do with hiking the great trails of America. You can reach him at claybonnyman@gmail.com. We catch up with Dan Whitesides, our last remaining Mighty Blue Class of 22 participant. As always, he's smiling through. If you're interested in coming to our upcoming Woods Hole Weekend in early October, check out the Woods Hole site at woodsholehostel.com and read about what we'll be covering over those three days.

In this episode: Fuelled by his desire to escape his corporate day job, Brian Livingston started writing his debut novel before work, and late into the night when everyone else was sleeping. Those gruelling hours were worth it because he published his debut in 2022 and he hasn't looked back.Brian Livingston was born and raised in Atlanta, GA. He earned his B.A. in History at Clemson University before setting off to thru-hike the Appalachian Trail in 2013 (where he earned his trail name “Mister Frodo”). After his thru-hike, he started law school at Washington & Lee University School of Law, graduating in 2016. Since 2016, he has worked as a trial attorney in South Carolina. He currently resides in Charleston, SC with his wife, Olivia, and black lab, Maddux. His debut novel, The Habits of Squirrels, is inspired by experiences and encounters on the Appalachian Trail.Links:https://www.brianlivingstonbooks.com/ Wild, Cheryl StrayedOn Writing, Stephen Kingwww.reedsy.comElements of Style, Strunk and WhiteConnect with Brian:Brian Livingston • Instagram photos and videosAuthor Brian Livingston | FacebookAuthor Brian Livingston / TwitterLine Editing Made Simple Kick-start your editing for free!Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

If you believe these reports to be true, this story is gonna make you think twice about any hikes  you may have planned. Then Lynze has two really awesome stories to tell this week! Going in the theme of being out in nature, she shares the story of a couple camping and being disturbed by some mysterious entity? creature? ghost? Finishing out the episode, she tells us the tale of a kind, sweet man who is also a skeptic who is then possessed and is skeptic no more. New Merch:  SO CUTE!!!

Richard N1RBD's ham radio journey began when I joined a wilderness Search and Rescue (SAR) team which uses HTs for communications during call-outs. He does a lot of hiking and backpacking in the North Georgia Mountains and on the Appalachian Trail, so he felt his knowledge of the area could be helpful. He activated a few SOTA summits with VHF, and was amazed at how far he could get from the summit of a 3000ft mountain running 5 watts. He then discovered Parks on the Air (POTA). Living 7 minutes from a POTA park, he tried some VHF activations with no success. Apparently, there is a huge difference between getting 4 QSOs from a summit vs 10 QSOs from a low-lying park when running VHF! He started his CW journey in January of 2020 using online resources and apps. His first CW QSO was on March 3, 2020 using a CW Morse Nano straight key to chase a POTA operator for a park to park contact. A few months later, he finally worked up the nerve to attempt a CW SOTA activation. On July 4, I garnered 15 CW QSOs, including my Elmer! At this point, I was officially hooked on CW. Join us as we talk about how YOU can improve how you do portable radio and CW in this episode of the All Portable Discussion Zone “AP/DZ”. Every aspect of Portable Ops is explored in this biweekly live stream as we discuss news, gear, achievements, the workbench, contests, awards and more - find all Portable Ops related topics here.

In today's episode of Backpacker Radio presented by The Trek, we are joined by The Netteburg family. Danae and Olen Netteburg, alongside their 5 children- ages ranging from 13 to 1, are currently thru-hiking the CDT. This is their second thru-hike in three years, after the family completed the Appalachian Trail in 2020. The Netteburg's story is one of a kind- both Danae and Olen are missionary doctors who run a 100-bed hospital in rural Chad. We go in-depth learning about how a family of seven manages on a trail as challenging as the CDT, their standout highs and lows from the AT, what life is like back in their home of Chad and the challenges of their work, and much more. The kiddos were also in and out of the studio for this one, so be prepared for the fun chaos that will ensue. We wrap the show with a triple crown of things you put on a cracker, a fan follow up to Kathryn Miles' episode which paints a different picture of one of the suspects, and we opine on the movies most deserving of a sequel.

We find out why many parks are now requiring bear canisters as opposed to the old hanging your food up in the trees. This one has a ton of bear stories that we can learn from. Like I always say, be the guy with an epic backcountry trip and not the guy who has to hike down early because of improper food storage. BearVault keeps adventure going!

I found Kelly Thomas, or Spotter through my rather unhealthy habit of cyber stalking the Appalachian Trail Facebook pages. She had just summited, and her proud Dad recorded that fact. I reached out to him and eventually spoke with Kelly. For me, her demographic, of a mid-30s female, was under-represented on the trail in past years, but I've noticed it growing in recent years. I wanted to talk with her about that. You can follow Kelly on her YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/c/UnboundCrow Today, we also speak with Katie Westling at the end of her successful hike of the Appalachian Trail. She hiked with a buddy of mine, Hugh Ickrath, from her last shelter, then met her family at the finish. Here is a picture that Hugh took of Katie with her daughter and her grandson as she "crossed the line" at the end. Marvelous!! Also today, an announcement of another podcast on the network. Paul Collins introduces the Hammock Hangers Podcast. I hope you give it a try. You can find it at https://www.hikingradionetwork.com/, along with all our other great shows.

Carlin Girard is the Executive Director of the Teton Conservation District. Originally from western Massachusetts, Carlin grew up surrounded by nature. He ventured out west to attend college in Prescott, AZ and made his way to the oil fields of the Big Piney area before landing in Jackson Hole over 15 years ago.  In this episode, Carlin shares what it was like growing up near the Appalachian Trail and why he eventually headed west. He talks about how a college thesis landed him in the oil fields near Big Piney and the research he was conducting. Stephan and Carlin then talk about some of the important work that the Teton Conservation District does for the community. Some of the programs and collaborations that they have been involved in include growing the native plant species, wildfire risk mitigation, well water test kits, wildlife monitoring, alternative energy, and many more.   Learn more about the Teton Conservation District at http://TetonConservation.org (TetonConservation.org) Follow Teton Conservation District on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/tetonconservation/ ( @tetonconservation) This week's episode is sponsored in part by Teton County Solid Waste and Recycling.

This week on Dirt Talk, Aaron Witt and Alex Horton are back at it, catching up after another long stretch of travel for Aaron. The guys discuss the Appalachian Trail and the “time warp” of living on the road before diving into this week's topic: Interns. They discuss the value of skipping the unpaid internship and just getting out in the field and working. Then, they answer a question about the value of outward-facing branding and why it works for some companies to paint all of their equipment.  Stay Dirty!
