Molly and Carrie invite you to continue along the trail as they backpack with HIGHLANDER in Big Bear Lake, California. A few highlights from today's episode include when Carrie perjures herself, a hiking pants delimma along a brushy section of the PCT, and the sisters' electrolyte routine. Carrie talks about a mental challenge and Molly gives advice for when you start to feel discouraged on trail. The girls observe something they've always wanted to see and reminisce on a delicious trail snack.

In today's episode of Backpacker Radio presented by The Trek, brought to you by Topo Athletic, we are joined yet again by our pal Andrew Skurka and wayyyyy back former guest and now co-director of Skurka Adventures, Katie Gerber aka "Salty". Today's episode covers a lot of ground.  Today's conversation is part backpacking advice, part gear nerd chat, part a glimpse inside the operation at Skurka Adventures.  We first dive into Katie's list of the five biggest mistakes she made as a beginner backpacker and her take on why she loves her alcohol stove- after a decade of use. Andrew gives us an overview of vapor barrier layers and moisture management for cold-weather backpacking, the Ursack versus bear canister debate, he gives a framework for deciding exactly when it's time to hit the SOS button on your satellite communicator, the ethics of publicizing GPS tracks in these high consequence and fragile regions, and he shares his two cents on one of the most detailed bear-safety questions we've ever received. The duo also give us some standout stories from their years of working together, including a nightmarish and somehow hilarious story of surviving a Mojave Desert traffic jam in triple-digit heat. We wrap the show with a call for Trail Correspondents, if setting up your tent in the airport makes you a genius or an A-hole, the triple crown of winter drinks, and some fun Ibex facts from a listener.

Nature comes with one terrifying reality...predators. How should a backpacker protect their food, their camp, and themselves? How should we handle animal attacks properly? We'll also chat about being more responsible when parenting comes into play on our backpacking plans.Be sure to check out Outdoor Vitals and get your hands on some great gear: https://alnk.to/bPg5BoQ

We meet a member of the Class of 2012 this week, who happens also to be a member of this years class of 2026. In fact, Todd Sears is starting the day after I start, in March this year.                               He had a long career in military intelligence, and brings a military discipline to his hike, both back in 2012 and in his plans for this year. I should be meeting him very early on as he will doubtless breeze past me at speed.                   You can read about his earlier hike from a blog that he wrote; Nor'easter's 2012 Appalachian Trail Journal : March 20, 2011 : Trail Journals, Backpacking and Hiking Journals. To compare his hiking and his writing back then, you should check out the Tek, as Todd is one of their trail correspondents this year; NorEaster, Author at The Trek                               We start our season of Hike the Good Hike participants for 2026 with Elizabeth Thompson, who has endured both domestic abuse and cancer in recent years. She is hiking the PCT and our conversation became quite emotional. You can keep up with Elizabeth on Instagram at (@footstepsandforests) • Instagram profile , and on YouTube at elizabeth                             With just eight weeks to go before I head out, I share some mildly disappointing news about my gear, and some encouraging news about my protein intake!! I used my hike in 2024 on the South West Coast Path in the UK to help raise money for my absolute favorite charity, Parenting Matters, on whose board I've been privileged to serve for over a decade. You can learn more about the hike and the organization–and donate–by visiting Hike with Steve - Empowering Parents, One Step at a Time | Parenting Matters %.

This week, we welcome back Dyana Carmella for a deep dive into outdoor adventure and creativity. Dyana reflects on her adventure on the Colorado Trail and a grueling trek through the Grand Tetons, while sharing an exclusive look at her journey adapting her book, A Walk Thru Neverland, into a screenplay. We also explore the influence of the film The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, discussing how its themes of self-discovery through daydreams and adventure mirror the courage it takes to step into the unknown and push your personal limits. This is truly one of my favorite episodes!!! Hope you all enjoy!!

Want to get away from the crowds? Want a high mountain lake or stream all to yourself?  The best way to do this is to take a backpacking trip, but you need to prepare more than you would for a car trip or a trip to a lodge. What exactly should you take and what should you leave behind?  What kinds of flies and accessories should you bring? How can you save weight and still have enough gear for a fun fishing trip? Derek Bargaehr [37:36], an experienced fly fisher and backpacker, gives us tips on how to make the most of your next backpacking trip. In the Fly Box this week, we have some questions. A couple of which could only be answered by my co-workers at Orvis so we have responses from both Pete Kutzer, our casting guru and Shawn Brillon, our bamboo rod craftsman. How can I easily estimate how much backing is on my unlabeled reels? A listener relates how some podcast advice on emergers helped him and his son have a successful trip I took a lesson on two-handed casting and it was all done on grass.  Was this wrong? What advice do you have on cleaning the ferrules on bamboo fly rods? Are Orvis bamboo fly rods impregnated? On a tarpon trip, the fish were in deep water so I used a sinking poly leader on my floating line.  Should I have used a full-sinking fly line instead? Is the Albright knot a better knot than the nail knot for attaching a leader to a fly line or backing to a fly line? When connecting pieces of tippet I will normally go up two X sizes, like from 2X to 4X.  Is this wrong? Is it OK to clear a casting lane on a trout stream? What can I do to find bigger trout during the dog days of summer?

Carrie and Molly welcome you to listen to this replay from their Wallowa series, which does indeed require a visit to the emergency department. Join in and hear how it all goes down! The day begins with big mileage and cruisey trails, but things take a turn when climbing the Matterhorn. The sisters learn how to deal with mental fatigue and assess together when it is better to go on and when it is appropriate to stop. A member of the trio also suffers a medical issue leaving the group to give first aid and work through the issue together. In between there are also some fun stories and laughter!

Buckle up for a different type of day in Wyoming's Bighorn mountains. The sisters chat about mountain microclimates and considering weather conditions as they plan to cross Florence pass. But their plans go sideways when something unexpected occurs. Tune in as the proverbial s*** hits the fan… er, leg. As Carrie puts it, “In life, things don't always go the way that you want. But with a good attitude, things can still go the best way they could've possibly gone.”

The sisters embark on Wyoming's Solitude loop, exploring the Cloud Peak wilderness in the Big Horn Mountains. They provide some background and planning considerations for this moderate length trail. Carrie explains her reason for considering the Big Horns “our backyard.” The sisters discuss a particularly important consideration for this trail. Carrie's words of advice include, “Don't drive a Cadillac Deville to the trailhead.” The girls enjoy an evening hike. Carrie requests assistance solving a mystery. Set up camp at beautiful Lake Geneva. Are the Big Horns grizzly country? The sisters reveal a technique to help you sleep better in the tent.

In today's episode of Backpacker Radio presented by The Trek, brought to you by LMNT, we are joined by Casey Huffman, known on trail as Vegas. Vegas has been mentioned a couple of times on this podcast in the past, as "the guy whose chest we signed" in 2023, and more recently, "the guy whose ass we signed". As we learn in today's episode, "signed ass guy" is also a real good hang.  We chat about how Vegas' mental health struggles ultimately lead him to the trail, how the hiking community and culture gave him the space to reinvent himself, and he shares quite possibly the most entertaining trail name origin story we've ever heard- we'll just say that this one is for adults only.  We wrap the show with discussing the merits of a sleeping bag liner, Chaunce is pissed about the cost of fountain soda, we do the triple crown of donuts, and Rachel once again lands a perfectly apropos listener mail bag.

Pack die Wanderschuhe ein und mach dich bereit für eine inspirierende Reise: Jan Rumig hat Deutschland auf eine Weise durchquert hat, die nur wenige wagen. Jan, der seine Leidenschaft für das Weitwandern nach dem Te Araroa in Neuseeland entdeckte, wollte diesmal nicht weit fliegen, sondern die Vielfalt der eigenen Heimat erleben. Sein Ziel war der Nord-Süd-Trail, eine epische Strecke von 3.700 Kilometern, die von Sylt bis zum südlichsten Punkt Deutschlands, dem Haldenwanger Eck, führt. Nach 98 Tagen, darunter 96 Wandertage und nur zwei Pausentage, erreichte er das Ziel und absolvierte den Trail in Fastest Known Time (FKT). Doch wie schafft man es, sich über drei Monate hinweg täglich zu motivieren und 3.700 Kilometer mit einem Startgewicht von 18,6 Kilogramm Gepäck zu meistern? Jan verrät uns, dass auf solch einem langen Weg vor allem der Wille zählt. Von Siebenschläfern, Schweißtropfen und der überraschenden Herzlichkeit Deutschlands Jans Wanderung war eine Achterbahnfahrt der Erlebnisse und Emotionen. Er berichtet von den kulturellen und kulinarischen Unterschieden – wie aus "Moin" "Servus" und aus Mettbrötchen Kaiserschmarrn wird. Dabei erwarteten ihn nicht nur Herausforderungen wie tagelanger Regen im Schwarzwald, der ihn fast den Mut kostete, bis ihm ein intensiver Regenbogen über Friedrichshafen ein Lächeln ins Gesicht zauberte. Auch körperlich wurde er auf die Probe gestellt, als sein rechter Knöchel plötzlich sehr stark geschwollen war. Warum er trotzdem keinen Arzt aufsuchen wollte – und wie ihm dann ausgerechnet eine Bundeswehr-Ärztin als Trail Angel aus der Patsche half, erfahrt ihr in der Folge. Jan lernte auf diesem Weg, dass Abenteuer nicht nur in der Ferne warten, sondern direkt vor der eigenen Haustür erlebt werden können. Hör rein, lass dich inspirieren und starte dein eigenes Abenteuer – egal ob Thru-Hike oder nur die ersten 10 Kilometer! Hier erfährst du alles über das Wandern durch Deutschland auf dem Nord-Süd-Trail und außerdem: - welch unglaubliche Herzlichkeit Jan von 25 Trail Angels erfuhr! - wie sich Deutschland von Nord nach Süd kulturell und kulinarisch verändert! - was Jan auf den 3.700 Kilometern am Laufen hielt! - was ihn nach tagelangem Dauerregen im Schwarzwald beinahe aufgeben ließ!

The Metabolic Energy Mile (MEM) framework breaks this down into three types of work: brush work (muscle strain from pushing through vegetation), impedance work (lost efficiency from constant stops and detours), and hazard work (the stabilizing effort to avoid injury). Each inflates the Metabolic Difficulty Ratio (MDR) in unique ways, helping us better predict energy cost, travel time, and safety off-trail.

My guest is Michael Easter, a professor at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas and best-selling author. We discuss how particular daily life choices undermine our level of joy, our sense of purpose, our physical and our mental health and the daily, weekly, monthly and yearly steps we can all take to vastly increase our level of motivation, gratitude and overall life satisfaction. We discuss how effortful foraging for information, undistracted reflection and physical exercise are ways to ‘invest' and therefore grow our levels of dopamine, energy and motivation, whereas low-friction activities are specifically designed to hijack or diminish them. We also discuss dopamine reward circuitry in the context of how to build and reset one's energy levels and create a deeper sense of purpose in work, creative pursuits and relationships.
