On today's episode of podcast, I sit down with Joaquin Madrid - operations manager and lead guide at RideHub in Squamish, BC.Originally from Santiago, Chile, Joaquin's journey into mountain biking started at 16 with sketchy city trails, downhill racing, and plenty of crashes. After stepping away from the sport, diving deep into rock climbing, and eventually rediscovering bikes through guiding and freeriding, Joaquin built a new relationship with riding - one rooted in skill development, self-trust, and community.Now based in Squamish, Joaquin brings over a decade of outdoor industry experience and a calm, supportive coaching style that helps riders build confidence, manage fear, and truly enjoy the process of progression.In this episode, we explore:Why racing wasn't the right path for him and what riding for fun gave him insteadThe mental crossover between rock climbing and mountain bikingHow to rebuild confidence after serious crashesThe “full circle” approach to riding: skills, fitness, mindset, and bike setupWhy community is an underrated performance enhancerThe biggest mistakes riders make when they first come to BCHow to approach steep granite slabs with control and confidenceWhat a “perfect ride” really looks like through Joaquin's eyesWe also dive into what makes Squamish, Whistler, and Pemberton such a special riding corridor - and why a guided experience can accelerate your progression while keeping you safe and confident on world-class terrain.This conversation is packed with honest reflections, practical insight, and a powerful reminder that mountain biking isn't about proving something, it's about the progression, the passion, and the people you share it with.You can learn more about Joaquin and RideHub here: https://ridehub.ca/meet-the-team/ And if riding BC has ever been on your bucket list, this episode might just be the push you need to make it happen - Check out the BC MTB ExpeditionUntil next time, happy trails - Jake___________________________ FREE Mental About MTB Community with direct access to me

More butts in seats, stronger loyalty, and a clearer picture of who your guests really are. What started as the Charlottesville Ale Trail has evolved into a passport program that helps beer trails move beyond simple maps and into measurable taproom traffic. In this conversation, we'll walk through how to set up and sustain a passport program that breweries want to participate in and guests are excited to use. We'll cover engagement tactics, the data you can collect along the way, and how these programs can support economic impact stories and grant applications.Todd Wickersty is the Executive Director of the Charlottesville Ale Trail and co-founder of LoyalBrew, a digital passport platform designed for food and beverage trails. He helped launch the Charlottesville Ale Trail in 2018 and continues to lead its growth and community partnerships eight years later. During the pandemic, Todd and his business partner created a digital passport for the Ale Trail to help local breweries stay connected with visitors. That innovation evolved into LoyalBrew, now used by tourism organizations and beverage trails across the country to inspire exploration and support small businesses.Join us in person for CBP Connects ChicagoJune 15-17, 2026Come get inspired, leave with actionable strategies: https://cbpconnects.com/
A mid-week triptych often refers to a three-paneled artwork or curated photo series, frequently highlighting themes of daily rhythm, religious devotion, or art, such as a constructivist piece or a "Holy Week" poem-prayer series. These creations, whether visual or written, are used to break up the week with creative, reflective, or artistic focus, often displayed on social media.
Daisy Martinez started running when a friend suggested she come to a night run in LA, hosted by Blacklist LA. At the time, Daisy was a young single mom working multiple jobs and going to school, and she was struggling with her physical and mental health. From that very first run, Daisy started a journey that would reshape her life; she credits finding the trails for saving her life. Today, Daisy has been exploring the trails for over a decade, and she is the co-founder of Chingonas on the Run. In addition, a few years ago, Daisy was diagnosed with MS. And just last October, she ran what she considers her comeback race: the Javelina 100k. It was an honor to hear Daisy tell her story, and I am so happy that now you get to hear it, too.

Transcript:Nl: De lucht was helder en blauw op de vroege lentedag en de zon verwarmde het dak van Jeroens oude rode auto.En: The sky was clear and blue on the early spring day, and the sun warmed the roof of Jeroen's old red car.Nl: Jeroen, Sanne en Lotte waren op weg naar een klein dorp om een weekend weg van de stad door te brengen.En: Jeroen, Sanne, and Lotte were on their way to a small village to spend a weekend away from the city.Nl: Sanne had de route zorgvuldig uitgestippeld, maar Jeroen, met zijn avontuurlijke geest, had andere plannen.En: Sanne had carefully mapped out the route, but Jeroen, with his adventurous spirit, had other plans.Nl: "Wat dacht je van een kleine omweg?En: "What do you think about a little detour?"Nl: ", stelde Jeroen voor, terwijl hij naar een zijweg wees die leidde naar Lisse.En: Jeroen suggested as he pointed to a side road leading to Lisse.Nl: Sanne zuchtte en keek naar de tijd op haar telefoon.En: Sanne sighed and looked at the time on her phone.Nl: "We hebben een schema, Jeroen", herinnerde ze hem.En: "We have a schedule, Jeroen," she reminded him.Nl: Maar Jeroen's glimlach was onweerstaanbaar, en Lotte, altijd klaar voor een avontuur, moedigde het idee aan.En: But Jeroen's smile was irresistible, and Lotte, always ready for an adventure, encouraged the idea.Nl: "Kom op, Sanne, het is lente!En: "Come on, Sanne, it's spring!Nl: En trouwens, ik wil wat mooie foto's maken!"En: Besides, I want to take some beautiful pictures!"Nl: Met enige aarzeling stemde Sanne toe.En: With some hesitation, Sanne agreed.Nl: "Oké, maar laten we het kort houden."En: "Okay, but let's keep it short."Nl: Jeroen draaide de auto de zijweg op.En: Jeroen turned the car onto the side road.Nl: De weg kronkelde langs groene polders en kleine boerderijen.En: The road wound past green polders and small farms.Nl: Al snel werden ze begroet door het levendige schouwspel van de tulpenvelden van Lisse.En: Soon they were greeted by the vibrant display of the tulip fields of Lisse.Nl: De bloemen stonden in volle bloei, een kleurrijk tapijt van rode, gele en roze tinten zover het oog reikte.En: The flowers were in full bloom, a colorful carpet of red, yellow, and pink hues as far as the eye could see.Nl: Een zachte bries vulde de lucht met de zoete geur van bloeiende bloemen.En: A gentle breeze filled the air with the sweet scent of blooming flowers.Nl: Toen ze uitstapten, rende Lotte meteen naar de velden, haar camera in de aanslag.En: As they got out, Lotte immediately ran towards the fields, her camera at the ready.Nl: Jeroen volgde, vol bewondering voor het onverwachte landschap.En: Jeroen followed, full of admiration for the unexpected landscape.Nl: Sanne bleef even bij de auto staan, kijkend naar het tafereel voor haar.En: Sanne stayed by the car for a moment, looking at the scene before her.Nl: In haar hoofd woog ze het genieten van het moment af tegenover de strakke planning die ze had opgesteld.En: In her mind, she weighed enjoying the moment against the tight schedule she had planned.Nl: "Jeroen, kijk dit!En: "Jeroen, look at this!"Nl: ", riep Lotte uit terwijl ze een foto maakte van een bij die op een bloem landde.En: Lotte called out as she took a picture of a bee landing on a flower.Nl: "Het is prachtig," gaf Jeroen toe terwijl hij naar Sanne lachte.En: "It's beautiful," Jeroen admitted as he smiled at Sanne.Nl: Sanne voelde een zekere weerstand smelten.En: Sanne felt a certain resistance melt away.Nl: Ze haalde diep adem en besloot haar zorgen over de tijd los te laten.En: She took a deep breath and decided to let go of her worries about the time.Nl: "Sanne, kom hier!En: "Sanne, come here!"Nl: ", riep Jeroen, wijzend naar een bijzonder schitterend stuk van het veld.En: Jeroen called, pointing to a particularly brilliant part of the field.Nl: Sanne liep naar hem toe en voelde zich ineens licht en vrij.En: Sanne walked over to him and suddenly felt light and free.Nl: "Waarom ook niet?En: "Why not?"Nl: ", dacht ze.En: she thought.Nl: Naarmate de middag vorderde, genoten ze alle drie van de rust en schoonheid van de tulpenvelden.En: As the afternoon progressed, the three of them enjoyed the peace and beauty of the tulip fields.Nl: De kleurige bloemen en de frisse lucht maakten de vertraging meer dan de moeite waard.En: The colorful flowers and fresh air made the delay more than worth it.Nl: Jeroen was opgelucht dat zijn impulsieve beslissing iedereen gelukkig had gemaakt.En: Jeroen was relieved that his impulsive decision had made everyone happy.Nl: En Sanne, die geleerd had het onverwachte te omarmen, ontdekte dat soms het mooiste avontuur op een zijweg te vinden is.En: And Sanne, who had learned to embrace the unexpected, discovered that sometimes the most beautiful adventure is found on a side road.Nl: Terwijl ze terugliepen naar de auto, was de zon begonnen te zakken en blonken de kleuren van de tulpen in het gouden avondlicht.En: As they walked back to the car, the sun had begun to set, and the colors of the tulips gleamed in the golden evening light.Nl: "Dank je wel, Jeroen," zei Sanne zacht.En: "Thank you, Jeroen," Sanne said softly.Nl: "Je had gelijk.En: "You were right.Nl: Soms is het goed om de planning te laten varen."En: Sometimes it's good to let go of the planning."Nl: Met een glimlach tussen hen reden ze verder, met de wetenschap dat de beste herinneringen vaak ontstaan als je even van het pad afwijkt.En: With a smile between them, they drove on, knowing that the best memories often come from deviating from the path.

In a world that rarely pauses, this episode of Speaking of Travel is an invitation to breathe. To slow down. To remember that wonder still lives just outside our door and within our own hearts.Meet Sue Wasserman, Travel and Tourism Director for Explore Burnsville, NC, a writer, nature photographer, devoted critter sitter, and a self-described general meanderer who knows how to pause for life's most beautiful moments.Sue's life has been shaped by the rhythms and quiet wisdom of Southern Appalachia, the hush of forest trails, the courage of wildflowers blooming in unlikely places, the stillness that teaches us how to truly be present. Her story isn't about rushing toward a destination. It's about honoring the space between.At the heart of our conversation is the gentle truth that creativity, healing, and self-discovery often begin the moment we give ourselves permission to pause.Sue shares how embracing her creative spirit, sparked by a transformative studio tour experience, shifted something deep within her. What began as admiration became ownership. What once felt like admiration of others' gifts became a claiming of her own.She reminds us that nature doesn't lecture. It simply models resilience, patience, and grace. Trails don't hurry. Seasons don't force. Wildflowers bloom when they're ready.And maybe we can too. Sue's presence is a soft but powerful reminder that travel is certainly about going somewhere new, but it's also about coming home to ourselves.As she so beautifully says, “When I slow down enough to notice the light on a leaf or the way a trail curves out of sight, I remember that life invites me to pay attention and not rush."This is a conversation about presence. About wonder. About saying yes to unexpected opportunities. About remembering what truly matters.If you've been feeling hurried, scattered, or unsure of your next step, this episode is your permission slip to slow down and trust that the path is unfolding exactly as it should.Tune in!Thanks for listening to Speaking of Travel! Visit speakingoftravel.net for travel tips, travel stories, and ways you can become a more savvy traveler.

Mountain Trails sits nestled on Winchester's Old Town walking mall at 115 North Loudoun Street, where owner Garry Green has cultivated something rare in retail: a store that feels like a community. After 34 years in business—the last 13 at this location—Garry has discovered what he calls "the Loudoun Street Magic," especially on Saturday evenings when the mall comes alive. He shares his passion during this episode of The Valley Today, with host Janet Michael and cohost Brady Cloven, executive director of Friends of Old Town. Mountain Trails' move from its original Cork Street location transformed the business entirely. "The demographic literally went from climbers, backpackers, and travelers to just everyone," Garry explains. The visibility proved phenomenal, and the store has become an integral part of Winchester's identity, appearing regularly in social media posts and drawing visitors from states away. Education Over Sales: A Revolutionary Approach What sets Mountain Trails apart isn't just their inventory—it's their philosophy. Garry's mission statement centers on creating "a safer, more enjoyable wilderness or travel experience," which means the staff focuses on qualifying customer needs rather than pushing products. "We are not here to sell things to you," Garry emphasizes. "We try to qualify your needs and provide for those needs." This approach resonates deeply in a business where equipment failures can have serious consequences. Whether customers are paddling the Shenandoah River for the first time or heading to Mount Everest base camp, their concerns receive equal validation. Garry recalls outfitting a gentleman for climbing Kilimanjaro, Africa's highest peak at nearly 20,000 feet. When the climber returned, he shared a remarkable moment: "I was at 16,000 feet and I heard you talking to me." The boots and backpack performed exactly as Garry had promised—the ultimate validation for the staff. Curating the Right Gear for Every Adventure Every single item in Mountain Trails serves a purpose. "Everything in Mountain Trails other than, let's just say a t-shirt, needs to function," Garry explains. "It has a job. And it needs to do that when you need it to do it." From rain gear to sock structure—yes, even socks matter—the curation process ensures customers receive appropriate equipment for their specific adventures. The store's tagline captures this breadth: "hiking, climbing, trekking, travel." However, their secondary motto, "Quality Outdoor Outfitters," opens the door wider. International travelers heading to Peru or around the world find the education and experience they need. Summer canoeists discover dry bags and quick-drying clothing. Skiers find bibs and cross-country equipment. Technical rock climbers locate harnesses and safety gear. Meeting Customers Where They Are Understanding the customer's experience level proves crucial to Garry's approach. The outdoor industry's biggest emerging demographic is what he calls "the casual adventurer"—people who want to hike two miles to a waterfall with trail runners, trekking poles, and a day pack, then return to town for lunch. These customers have vastly different needs from long-distance trekkers carrying their "house on their back" for multiple days. "Not everybody needs a $400 three-layer Gore-Tex rain jacket," Garry points out. While climbers heading to Mount Everest might need that level of protection, an $80 waterproof jacket works perfectly for someone's golf bag. This honesty builds trust. Moreover, the relationship continues as customers grow in their outdoor pursuits, returning to upgrade their gear as they tackle more challenging adventures. The Power of Kindness and Experience When hiring staff, Garry's number one criterion isn't outdoor expertise—it's kindness. "You have to put that customer's best interest at heart above anything else," he insists. This philosophy creates what international visitors have called "the feel" of Mountain Trails, something that distinguishes it from sterile big-box retailers. The staff's personal experience matters tremendously. "They've been wet, cold, hungry, tired," Garry notes. "They're here to help you suffer better." Garry himself spent years guiding in Alaska and running outdoor adventure programs for the U.S. Air Force, helping service members decompress after deployment. He recalls a winter camping trip where a participant thought she wouldn't survive the night because her "butt was cold"—she hadn't inflated her sleeping pad. After inflating it and adding hand warmers, she proclaimed he'd saved her life. "You passed through a window," he told her, referring to those challenging moments all outdoor enthusiasts eventually face. Beyond the Hardcore: Everyday Customers Welcome While Mountain Trails caters to serious adventurers, everyday shoppers find unexpected value. Janet shares how the store helps her buy gifts for her mother-in-law who bikes the C&O Canal—despite Janet's self-proclaimed lack of outdoor interests. "I can come in here and just say, she does this and you can help me find the perfect gift for her," she explains. The store even welcomes those who simply want to look the part. "I love this store even though I am not an outdoors person," Janet admits. Garry laughs, acknowledging that sometimes "it's all about the look." This inclusive approach means everyone feels welcome, whether they're heading into the wilderness or just want quality gear for weekend activities. A Global Reputation Built on Local Service The store's reputation extends far beyond Winchester. Visitors from Syracuse, Cleveland, and even international locations make Mountain Trails a regular stop. Garry recalls a family from Israel who declared it their favorite outdoor store globally. "We go into these stores all over the world, and this one is our favorite so far," they told him. What impressed them? The feel of the place—something intangible that staff members hear about regularly. This atmosphere stems from Garry's operating principle: "Everybody's welcome until they're not." The staff genuinely cares, creating an environment that feels more like a community gathering space than a transaction-focused retail outlet. Social media serves not primarily as a sales tool but as "an instrument of familiarity," sharing articles about climbing, skiing, and outdoor adventures that customers want to read over their morning coffee. Connecting with Mountain Trails In mid-March, Mountain Trails will transition from their winter hours into regular hours: Monday through Thursday 10 AM to 7 PM, Fridays and Saturdays 10 AM to 8 PM, and Sundays noon to 5 PM. Customers can find them on Facebook and Instagram or visit mountain-trails.com for basic information, though the real experience requires stepping through their door on the walking mall. Old Town Winchester: Building Community Through Events Chocolate Escape Perseveres Through Arctic Conditions The second half of the conversation shifts focus to Brady Claven, executive director of Friends of Old Town Winchester, who shares updates on recent events and upcoming attractions. February's Chocolate Escape faced brutal weather—17-degree temperatures with windchill predictions of negative 10 degrees—yet determined participants still filled the walking mall with their maps, hitting every participating location. Approximately 30 merchants participated in the event, which aims not just to distribute chocolate but to drive foot traffic into stores during cold months. The strategy worked. Faire Isles, for instance, welcomed numerous first-time visitors, and overall feedback indicated people discovered stores they'd never visited before. "The point of it is to get people into stores," Brady explains, noting that participants might not linger outside as long in freezing weather, but they spent more time browsing inside. Celebrating Black History Month Through Partnership Friends of Old Town partnered with NAACP Winchester and secured generous sponsorship from Valley Health to present three Black History Month events. Typewriter Studio hosted a spoken word and art gallery night featuring Monica James and representatives from Selah Theater. Bright Box presented "History and Cocktails" with Nick Powers from the MSV delivering an outstanding historical talk about the Valley's Black history, tying into the upcoming VA250 celebration. Finally, Bistro Sojo offered a small plates and jazz night with a $35-per-person special menu and live performance by SU. Spin to Winchester: Pedaling for Progress Friends of Old Town's second annual Spin to Winchester fundraiser brought participants together inside Valley Health for a 45-minute stationary bike class. Each rider crowd-funded their participation, raising a minimum of $250, with prizes awarded for most funds raised, sweatiest rider, and highest mileage. The event exceeded expectations, hitting 120% of its goal and attracting 20 more individual donors than the previous year. "It's very apparent by the end of this 45-minute class, certain people are, myself included, just dripping with sweat," Brady admits, describing the intense workout led by instructor Pam from Valley Health. Despite the physical challenge—including what seemed like endless "last hills"—the fundraiser's success directly supports Old Town programs and events throughout the year. Taylor Pavilion: A Transformation Underway Ground has broken on the Taylor Pavilion renovation, with completion targeted for before WineFest during Apple Blossom season. The transformation will create a social gathering space that addresses a common community need. "We do hear a lot from people that say, well, you know, there's really not a space if I don't wanna drink or if I don't want to eat," Brady notes. The new pavilion will offer a place where people can grab a bagel and sit, play chess, listen to music, or simply enjoy being on the mall. It will serve as a meeting point before art classes at Typewriter Studio or ShenArts—a place for friends to gather with coffee and catch up before heading to other destinations. Notably, the infamous "ping pong table on an incline" from the conceptual rendering will not materialize, though Brady jokes they should install a commemorative statue. Celtic Fest Returns March 14th Looking ahead to March, Celtic Fest promises to be a highlight. Scheduled for Saturday, March 14th from noon to 5 PM, the event will feature approximately 35 vendors lining the mall from the south end near Hideaway northward. Partners include Ravenwood Foundation, which brings expertise in outdoor Highland games. City Pipes and Drums will perform throughout the day. Faire Isles plans Irish dancers in their alcove, while other merchants prepare special attractions. Piper Dan's and Union Jack's—recently reopened after flooding—will participate, with Brady hoping to coordinate a special menu. Additionally, Brady plans to transform the museum lawn into a kids' Highland games zone, where children ages four to ten can throw foam logs, compete in disc throwing, and win prizes. Staying Connected Those interested in Old Town Winchester events can follow Friends of Old Town on Facebook and Instagram (@FriendsOfOldTownWINC) or visit friendsofoldtown.org for a complete calendar. First Friday events return in June with a "Summer of Covers" theme featuring cover bands, including a special August event partnering with River House. A Community That Cares Whether discussing Mountain Trails' dedication to customer safety and satisfaction or Friends of Old Town's commitment to creating community experiences, this conversation reveals Winchester's character: a city where businesses and organizations prioritize people over profit, relationships over transactions, and community over convenience. From outdoor gear to outdoor festivals, the message remains consistent—everyone's welcome, expertise matters, and kindness forms the foundation of everything worthwhile.

Not far beyond Dublin's busy streets lies a landscape of forest trails, heather-covered hills, and stories that stretch back thousands of years. The Dublin Mountains are closer than most visitors realize – and packed with history, mythology, and unforgettable views. trail in the Dublin Mountainsphoto courtesy of Ben Shorten, My Bike or Hike; used with permission This article is based on podcast episode 327 featuring Ben Shorten, owner of My Bike of Hike, guided tours around the Dublin area delivered in a sustainable way. Use the player below to listen or scroll to continue reading the article and get resource links. Dublin Mountains: An Easy City Escape with Ancient Stories The Dublin Mountains form the northern edge of a granite mountain range that stretches nearly 90 miles through Leinster. While they're often overshadowed by their Wicklow neighbors, this is where the range actually begins – right in South County Dublin. The rounded granite hills make for accessible hill walking rather than extreme hiking. Trails are generally approachable for anyone with a reasonable level of fitness, making this a fantastic half-day or full-day addition to a Dublin itinerary. From many vantage points you'll enjoy: Sweeping views over Dublin City and the suburbs Panoramas across Dublin Bay and the Irish Sea Scenic outlooks into the Wicklow Mountains Forest walks and open heathland On a clear day, the views alone are worth the trip. Getting to the Dublin Mountains Without a Car Yes, you can reach the Dublin Mountains by public transport. Several bus routes connect the city and suburbs to trailheads and nearby villages. Services aren't always as frequent as visitors might hope, but options are steadily improving. With a little planning (and a quick online search), it's entirely possible to spend the day hill walking without renting a car. That accessibility makes the Dublin Mountains one of the easiest outdoor escapes from the capital. Prehistoric Tombs Older Than the Pyramids Here's where things get fascinating. On many of the Dublin Mountains' summits, you'll find prehistoric megalithic burial tombs, many of which predate the Egyptian pyramids and even Stonehenge. There's often little signage. No grand visitor center. Sometimes just a mound of stones quietly resting at the top of a hill. But these sites may be 5,000 years old. Fairy Castle cairnphoto courtesy of Ben Shorten, My Bike or Hike; used with permission One notable example sits atop a mountain commonly called Fairy Castle (also known historically by several names, including from the Irish language). The mound is believed to be an ancient tomb—possibly a passage tomb—yet it has never been excavated. What lies beneath remains a mystery. That sense of standing somewhere sacred and ancient, largely undisturbed, is powerful. You're quite literally walking where people walked thousands of years ago. Where Mythology, History & Archaeology Meet In the Dublin Mountains, it's common for prehistory, documented history, and Irish mythology to overlap. Mountains like Seefin and Seefingan (names derived from Irish) are linked to legends of Fionn Mac Cumhaill and the Fianna. According to mythology, these were hunting grounds and even “seats” of the great warrior himself. Climb the hill and you may find: A prehistoric tomb A mythological story tied to the summit Historical records from later centuries Few places weave together so many layers of story in one location. Hellfire Clubphoto courtesy of Ben Shorten, My Bike or Hike; used with permission The Hellfire Club on Montpelier Hill If there's one Dublin Mountains site many visitors have heard of, it's the Hellfire Club. Perched on Montpelier Hill, the remains of an 18th-century hunting lodge overlook the city with spectacular views. The lodge was built in 1725 by William Conolly, once one of the wealthiest men in Ireland. Local lore says that stones from a prehistoric tomb were used in its construction. Soon after it was built, legends claim the roof blew off – a punishment, some said, for disturbing ancient ground. Later, the building was associated with the notorious Hellfire Club, a group of aristocrats rumored to have hosted wild and possibly sinister gatherings there. While hard evidence is limited, the stories have endured for centuries. Today, visitors can walk up Montpelier Hill, explore the structure, and imagine the layers of history – prehistoric ritual site, 18th-century hunting lodge, and legendary meeting place. It's atmospheric, dramatic, and one of the best viewpoints near Dublin. Exploring the Dublin Mountains with a Local Guide Ben Shorten, owner of My Bike or Hike, offers guided experiences throughout Dublin – city, coast, countryside, and mountains – with a strong focus on local connection and sustainability. His approach includes: Supporting small, family-run businesses Using public transport where possible Sharing deep local knowledge and storytelling Introducing visitors to lesser-known but equally rewarding locations Rather than focusing only on the most crowded attractions, his tours highlight places that are just as meaningful – often with far fewer people. Tours can be booked directly through the website, and custom experiences are available upon request. The Dublin Mountains hikes are open to visitors and suitable for a wide range of fitness levels. Follow the adventures on Facebook and Instagram. 3 Places to Visit in the Dublin Mountains If you're heading into the hills, here are three locally loved spots worth adding to your plans: Hazel House (A Place to Eat)A cozy, family-run café tucked into the Dublin Mountains. Hazel House is known for rustic meals and produce grown in their own polytunnels.After a hill walk, there's nothing better than a hearty lunch made with local ingredients. Sophie's Sauna in Glenasmole (A Place to Enjoy)A newly opened hot-and-cold sauna experience hidden in the Glenasmole Valley. It's quickly become a favorite for those looking to relax after a hike – or simply soak in the mountain surroundings in a different way.Bonus: Sophie, the sheep (who thinks she's a dog), might greet you. Ollie's Honey Farm (A Place to Learn)Visit a local beekeeper producing award-winning honey from hives throughout the Dublin Mountains.Tours allow visitors to learn about beekeeping, taste truly local honey, and even suit up and see the hives up close. It's a hands-on way to connect with the landscape – through its flowers, bees, and flavors. The Dublin Mountains may sit just outside the city, but they feel a world away. Whether you're chasing panoramic views, ancient tombs, mythological tales, or a bowl of homemade soup after a hill walk, this landscape delivers. And once you stand on a summit overlooking Dublin Bay, it's hard to believe more people don't add it to their itinerary.

In this volume of the Trails & Tribulations series on the Just Trek podcast, I welcome back SoCal trekker, Justin Williams aka @RockhoundHiker, to recount a 2016 “vision quest” style thru-hike across Southern California's mighty San Gabriel Mountains. Starting at Ling Yen Mountain Temple near the Etiwanda Preserve, Justin set out severely underprepared—carrying only water and three apples—on a roughly multi-day, ~60-mile push toward St. Andrew's Abbey in Valyermo, California. Along the way he commits to dangerous off-trail terrain, including climbing multiple 40–50 foot dry waterfalls with loose rock, an all-night bushwhack through thorny buckthorn and a wrong turn that sends him up a rugged ridge to Etiwanda Peak before reconnecting to the route toward Cucamonga Peak and Baldy. As heat, dehydration, and electrolyte depletion set in, he vomits repeatedly, naps in a cave to escape the sun, accepts help from hikers. He shares memorable encounters—especially meeting Mr. Kim on Mt. Baldy, a hiker on a personal pilgrimage for Korean reunification who later died on the mountain—and describes being emotionally shaken by a memorial to PCT hikers who died in snow, prompting reflection on the consequences of risk and who we leave behind. Have you ever experienced a survival moment or learned a tough lesson on the trail? Maybe you got lost, faced sudden weather, encountered wildlife, or found yourself pushed to your limits in ways you didn't expect. Trails & Tribulations is the space where those stories come to life, inspiring and connecting the outdoor community. If any of these resonates with you, we'd love to hear YOUR story!Submit your story on https://tinyurl.com/47jdbvau for a chance to be featured or send us an email on justtrekofficial@gmail.comFollow Justin Williams on https://www.instagram.com/rockhoundhikerFollow Just Trek on IG https://www.instagram.com/just.trek/Support Just Trek on Patreon https://www.patreon.com/justtrekShop Just Trek merch on https://www.justtrek.net/shopListen to more podcast episodes on https://www.justtrek.netWant to send me a message?

Today, I am speaking with a woman who owns two campgrounds in Connecticut and is looking for Workampers this summer. Lelah Campo owns Cozy Hills Campground in Bantam, Conn. She and her team also built a second park from scratch nearby called Sky Ridge Trails in Torrington. The two campgrounds are about seven miles apart, and both rely on Workampers as a key part of their success. She needs Workampers to help with front desk, retail, housekeeping, maintenance and running activities. Cozy Hills even has a full restaurant where a Workamper couple runs the cafe. Solo Workampers usually put in around 30 hours a week while couples are often working closer to 60 hours combined. Lelah works hard to give Workampers two days off in a row and on the same days for both partners. Most jobs start at $17 an hour and Workampers are paid for all hours worked. A campsite is provided at zero cost and includes a generous electric allowance and free laundry. If you have ever wondered what it is like to be Workamping in New England in a place with rolling hills, tall pine trees, busy weekends and nonstop family activities, you will enjoy this conversation. One thing that stood out to me was how intentional Lelah is in matching Workampers to jobs that best fit with their talents and interests. I also appreciated her straightforward approach to scheduling and expectations. She likes to keep people fresh and avoid burnout and making sure Workampers get two consecutive days off together as a couple. Her advice about getting too friendly with seasonal guests was an excellent reminder about the need for setting and maintaining boundaries. Workampers certainly don't want to be put in uncomfortable positions if they need to enforce rules or by getting pressured to do things they aren't really hired to do. With a completely free RV site and pay for every hour worked, this is a great opportunity to spend a summer in beautiful New England. If you want more information about either park or the Workamping opportunities, visit cozyhills.com or skyridgerv.com. People can also email Lelah directly at admin@cozyhills.com. Today's episode is sponsored by Workamper News. Much more than just a job-listing website, when you put the tools of this professional service into action, you'll find out just how easy it can be to turn your Workamping dreams into reality. A Workamper membership opens the door to a one-stop-shop for all-things Workamping. Being the original resource for Workamping, you'll find the largest number of job listings, be able to connect with a community of Workampers, and view resources compiled by experts who have been enjoying the RV lifestyle for many years. If you're serious about leading a successful and enjoyable Workamping lifestyle, then membership is for you. Join today at www.workamper.com. Embark on new adventures today with the support of Workamper News behind you! That's all for this week's show. Next time I will be speaking with another campground owner from New Hampshire about a fun Workamping opportunity this summer. I will have that interview on the next episode of The Workamper Show.

Fluent Fiction - Italian: Facing Fears and Finding Friendship on Cinque Terre Trails Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/it/episode/2026-02-18-08-38-20-it Story Transcript:It: Il sole del mattino si alzava lentamente sopra il paesaggio mozzafiato delle Cinque Terre.En: The morning sun slowly rose over the breathtaking landscape of the Cinque Terre.It: L'aria fresca dell'inverno portava un profumo di mare e avventura.En: The fresh winter air carried a scent of the sea and adventure.It: Luca, Sofia e Marco si preparavano per una giornata di escursioni lungo i sentieri costieri.En: Luca, Sofia, and Marco were getting ready for a day of hiking along the coastal trails.It: Luca, con il suo entusiasmo contagioso, era quello che spingeva sempre più avanti il gruppo.En: Luca, with his contagious enthusiasm, was always the one pushing the group further.It: Ma aveva un segreto: una paura profonda delle altezze.En: But he had a secret: a deep fear of heights.It: Oggi, più che mai, voleva superarla.En: Today, more than ever, he wanted to overcome it.It: Sofia, invece, aveva portato con sé la sua macchina fotografica, desiderosa di catturare ogni angolo spettacolare del percorso.En: Sofia, on the other hand, had brought her camera, eager to capture every spectacular corner of the path.It: Marco, sempre ottimista, camminava accanto a loro, usando questo tempo per riflettere sul proprio futuro incerto.En: Marco, always optimistic, walked beside them, using this time to reflect on his own uncertain future.It: I sentieri delle Cinque Terre, pur offrendo viste spettacolari sul Mediterraneo, erano stretti e ripidi.En: The trails of the Cinque Terre, while offering spectacular views of the Mediterranean, were narrow and steep.It: La vegetazione rigogliosa si alternava a tratti scoperti, dove il mare sembrava infinito sotto di loro.En: The lush vegetation alternated with exposed stretches, where the sea seemed infinite below them.It: Mentre camminavano, Sofia fermava il gruppo ogni pochi passi per scattare fotografie che sperava sarebbero state indimenticabili.En: As they walked, Sofia stopped the group every few steps to take photographs she hoped would be unforgettable.It: Quando il cammino diventò più difficile, Luca si sentì esposto alla vasta distesa azzurra.En: When the path became more difficult, Luca felt exposed to the vast blue expanse.It: Il cuore gli batteva forte.En: His heart was pounding.It: Il sentiero si faceva sempre più stretto e ripido.En: The trail got narrower and steeper.It: Marco, notando la tensione di Luca, gli sorrise incoraggiantemente: "Ce la farai, Luca.En: Marco, noticing Luca's tension, gave him an encouraging smile: "You can do it, Luca.It: Guarda solo il panorama."En: Just look at the scenery."It: La guida di Marco e le parole rassicuranti di Sofia ("Pensa solo alla bellezza che stai osservando") furono sufficienti per infondere coraggio a Luca.En: Marco's guidance and Sofia's reassuring words ("Just think about the beauty you're observing") were enough to give Luca courage.It: Riuscì a calmare i suoi timori.En: He managed to calm his fears.It: Tuttavia, arrivati al punto più precario del sentiero, Luca si fermò.En: However, when they reached the most precarious part of the trail, Luca stopped.It: Sotto di lui, il mare si infrangeva contro le rocce, creando un rumore continuo.En: Below him, the sea crashed against the rocks, creating a continuous noise.It: Respirò profondamente e guardò avanti.En: He took a deep breath and looked ahead.It: "Sono arrivato fin qui," pensò, "non voglio tornare indietro."En: "I've come this far," he thought, "I don't want to turn back."It: In quello stesso istante, una sensazione di forza e determinazione lo pervase.En: In that very moment, a feeling of strength and determination filled him.It: Fece un passo, poi un altro, e un altro ancora.En: He took a step, then another, and yet another.It: Superò il tratto più difficile, sostenuto dalle voci dei suoi amici che lo incitavano.En: He overcame the hardest stretch, supported by the voices of his friends urging him on.It: Finalmente raggiunsero una piccola piazzola sporgente.En: Finally, they reached a small jutting terrace.It: Da lì, il panorama era incredibile.En: From there, the view was incredible.It: Si vedevano le case colorate dei villaggi, come pennellate vibranti sulla costa.En: They could see the colorful houses of the villages, like vibrant brushstrokes on the coast.It: Luca si voltò verso Sofia e Marco con un sorriso radioso.En: Luca turned to Sofia and Marco with a radiant smile.It: Aveva vinto la sua battaglia interiore.En: He had won his inner battle.It: Non solo aveva superato il suo timore, ma sentiva una connessione ancora più profonda con i suoi amici.En: Not only had he overcome his fear, but he also felt an even deeper connection with his friends.It: Si sentirono uniti in un'esperienza unica, un legame che avrebbe rafforzato la loro amicizia.En: They felt united in a unique experience, a bond that would strengthen their friendship.It: Sosta dopo sosta, vento e sole sulla pelle,

As Grand Theft Auto VI begins to lock in its November 19th release date, we're already started to see publishers scramble with their release plans. A recent report out of The Verge firms up that Xbox, like much of this industry, will be attempting to evade the blast zone. As such, they are moving some games up and there's a chance others fall out of the year. Joining Matty this week is Last Stand's own Brad Ellis to talk about everything from Halo Campaign Evolved to Gears Of War: E-Day as we debate and discuss the respective windows of these games. The main question that lingers in our head is if Xbox is avoiding Grand Theft Auto, does that leave December as an option? If not, can all of their 2026 calendar make it out in the anniversary year or would it be best to delay some games into early 2027 for additional polish and breathing room?

Title: How to Trade Legends and Infuriate PeopleScripture Reading: Ephesians 6:19-20Series: Be Bold!What if the boldest moves you make for God are met with the fiercest opposition rather than immediate triumph? Drawing from the high-stakes decisions of the Green Bay Packers' front office, this message explores why we shouldn't be surprised when following God leads to friction. By looking at the life of the Apostle Paul and the story of Moses, we examine the true Cost of standing firm. Rather than seeking a change in Circumstance or asking for rescue, we are called to stay the Course through persistent prayer before, during, and after trials. Ultimately, we find our strength in Christ, who paid the ultimate price of boldness on the cross so that we might have the courage to live for His glory. Instead of praying for God to remove your difficult circumstances, ask for the boldness to remain faithful and obedient right where you are.

The U.S. Forest Service is responsible for over 370,000 miles of roads and around 160,000 miles of trails, much of which are on federal lands. But, a government report from 2013 found that only about a quarter of these trails met safety or maintenance standards. Even more recent, in November an internal report from the agency showed a 100% loss of trail staff and widespread declining morale. What do we lose when we don’t maintain our trails? What do these trails across the country, and in Oregon, tell us about our history? And what challenges do staff and volunteers maintaining these routes face today? Dillon Osleger is a writer and public lands analyst. His forthcoming book “Trail Works” releases in May and he had a recent story in RE:PUBLIC and High Country News. He joins us to answer these questions and more.

Welcome to the Jeep Life Podcast! Eric joins in as our guest host and a great episode follows. In this solo episode, I reflect on the trails that shaped me most—on and off the rocks. From being humbled on Metal Masher in Moab, building confidence on BA Trail 34 at AOAA, learning patience the hard way on Lower Anthracite and witnessing the power of community at Top of the World during a Tread Lightly project, each trail left a lasting lesson. I also touch on the longest recoveries, the most scenic views, and why Jeeping has always been about more than the vehicle—it's about the people, the patience, and the respect we bring to the trail.Tag us in your IG feed or FB.
