Podcast appearances and mentions of renee patrick

What is your intention when you are on a hike? When I go hiking, my goal is to disconnect from technology and reconnect with my body and the natural world. That means I am not listening to music or a podcast. I typically hike alone with just my dogs, and I often pick trails that I don't get all the way to the end. I just hike for an hour or so, making stops to look at things, check in with myself, and admire the view.  Sure, there are some hikes where I have a specific destination or peak I am climbing, but most of the time, my daily hikes are more like strolls in the foothills.  In episode 145, we talk about what it means to be an intentional hiker and how to be more thoughtful when on the trail. This isn't just about disconnecting from technology and reconnecting with yourself and nature, though. It is also about becoming more engaged in the landscape and communities that support those landscapes.  I sat down to chat with Renee Patrick to help me discuss what it means to be an intentional hiker.  Renee is a creative who seeks to combine her love of design, language, nature, people, and long-distance hiking into positive changes for her communities and the environment.

In this episode, host Zach Urness revisits the Oregon Desert Trail, a challenging but beautiful route designed to open the eyes of hikers to the wonders of the high desert. Urness talks about why spring is a time to consider hiking or planning a short or long-distance trek along the 750-mile route that travels from just outside of Bend all the way to Lake Owyhee State Park. Urness get expertise from Renee Patrick, trail coordinator for the Oregon Natural Desert Association about everything hikers need to know about undertaking the route, and just what makes it special.

Today's guest is Renee Patrick, a thru hiker, long distance trail consultant, and an environmentalist. Renee is awesome for two specific reasons. One, she's hiked some incredible long distance treks including the Triple Crown in the US, that's the Appalachian Trail, Pacific Crest Trail, and the Continental Divide Trail. And two, she actually designs trails. Yes, Renee designs trails and how people experience them. I am sure many of you are sort of like me and just assume trails appear as people walk repeatedly along the same path, and then some very nice folks come along and help maintain them and somebody maps them. Or maybe at the very least you just didn't really know exactly how your favorite trails got there, but Renee is one of those people who actually helps bring them to life in an intentional way. Make sure to check out the episode and then check out Renee on Instagram @wearehikertrash (https://www.instagram.com/wearehikertrash/) to follow her amazing adventures and to see her latest projects. She also hosts a forum called Intentional Hiking (https://www.intentionalhiking.com/) that we talk about in the episode that is well worth your time to check out.

Today we sit down with the one and only "She-Ra" A.K.A Renee Patrick! We begin the show with what it means to identify as a thru-hiker. Renee has been involved in the outdoor, backpacking, thru-hiking world for 20+ years now, and we dive into what it means to her to be a thru-hiker, and whether or not that definition has changed over the years. We dive deeper into time itself and as she describes it "Deep Time." Is there a finite amount of time needed to reach this type of time and what are the conditions that it is found? Along the way we go through her time in the outdoors and her progression into who she has become today. We start with her initial thru-hike on the Appalachian Trail back in 2002, and how the fire that began there, never was quenched. Travelling forward through 4 years of college to her next thru-hike on the Pacific Crest Trail in 2006, we chat the thoughts when she reached the point many in the outdoors eventually reach, the question of. "How can I make hiking my life?" We discuss the growth from a hiker into making hiking your life. We chat Wilderness First Responder courses, meeting other hikers involved in the industry, and following your curiosity. We chat being open to wherever the job may take you and learning the lessons along the way. We learn the steps Renee took to follow her passion and create a life in the outdoors. We chat all things trail maintenance. We discuss the incredible amount of work that goes into even just a mile of trail. We wander the line of thought of when doing trail maintenance, when it is done the best, it is the least "seen" or "felt." We send out appreciation to all past, present, and future trail maintainers, for without them, well there would not be trails. We go into all things Blue Mountains Trail and Oregon Desert Trail. Two trail systems both located in the state of Oregon, which Renee has an important role in the decisions of trail routing, conservationism, and trail awareness. We discuss the missions of both trails, and how one goes about bringing the thought of conservationism to the forefront of each hiker's minds and most importantly actions. Is it the maps, the trail association, the individual's responsibility, the preparation, the information along the way, what are the ways and how does it become a reality? We discuss what a trail mean's when sometimes the very point of a "trail" is to not become a "trail." We chat a pair of scissors and $5 per cut of hair "fundraising", the immensity of time in 6 weeks to build 30ft of trail, and the beauty of alternates. We discuss waypoints as suggestions, hiker-trash as a company, concept, responsibility, and connection amongst hikers. We discuss dirt being the greatest equalizer. We chat not being ashamed of one's stink and circle back to the definition of "thru-hike" and how it becomes different for every hike. As she puts it: "The trail is the unknown but the trail is also me." Truly a wonderful chat, thank you Renee! FAVORITE QUOTES: "I identify as a thru-hiker over most other things." "I didn't really have the money, but I had the time." "Follow your curiosity." "Dirt is a great equalizer."

The Blue Mountains Trail is an immersive adventure through the diverse interconnected eco-regions that comprise the Greater Hells Canyon Region. The trail will take you deep into the mountains, forests, rivers, ecosystems, and communities of northeast Oregon. It shares the living history of why the Blue Mountains are ecologically unique and more parts of it deserve permanent protection.For trail specifics, maps and news check out Greater Hells Canyon Council and their trail page for centralized resources (including trail town guides!)

In today's episode of backpacker radio presented by the trek, we are joined by Emily Ford.  Perhaps you've heard that name in the backpacking sphere of late, because Emily recently wrapped a thru-hike of Wisconsin's Ice Age Trail- in the dead of winter- becoming just the second person ever to do so, and the first woman.  We do a deep dive on Emily's journey, including what gear she used, the weather conditions (spoiler alert- it was cold as hell), how she had to knock on strangers' doors to ask if she could sleep in their yard, and how she managed this trek alongside a husky that did not belong to her.  This is a fun conversation. We wrap the show with a preview of The Trek's brand new podcast- Walking Distance, a Triple Crown of odd firsts, another edition of backpacking advice of the day, and some history of how North Carolina's tallest mountain played a role in the death of the person its named after.

In the far reaches of SE Oregon, there's a trail that spans over 700 miles through the Oregon desert. On this episode of The By Land Podcast, I'm joined the Oregon Desert Trail Coordinator, Renee Patrick, to talk about what the trail offers, how it began, and what adventurers can expect to see in this incredible high desert landscape.Renee is not exactly a newb when it comes to backpacking. She is a highly accomplished long distance hiker who's resume includes the Triple Crown (AT, CDT, PCT) and a number of other trails to include the Oregon Desert Trail. Renee and I discuss not only the mission of the Oregon Desert Trail, but also how Renee approaches backpacking, what it means to her, and how she came to do what she does now as a profession.You're going to love hearing from Renee about backpacking and the Oregon Desert Trail. It was a pleasure spending time on the phone with her and I found myself eager to get back into the hills once again after listening to her talk about the thing she loves the most.On a personal note, I feel like this episode really embodies what this podcast is about.
