In July of 2006, a 27-year-old woman and her mother set out for a four-mile hike around an idyllic Washington lake. Hours after they started their trek, their bodies were found by fellow hikers, and it was clear that they had been murdered. But how did they meet this tragic fate, and why?

If you love using and having access to the thousands of miles of hiking trails throughout the United States, you're going to want to listen to this episode of The By Land Podcast. Clay Jacobson is a Thru Hiker who works with the Idaho Trails Association and helps manage the coordination of the Idaho Centennial Trail (which he hiked not too long ago).On this episode, you'll hear about Clay's personal story of how he got into long distance backpacking and why he's now focused on saving as many miles of trail as possible. We cover the current state of trails in the US, how they're funded and maintained, and why there are sometimes thousands of miles of trail disappearing each year.This podcast is all about backpacking, but there wouldn't be any such thing if organizations like the Idaho Trails Association didn't exist. Non-profits like the ITA organize themselves to help preserve our trail systems and they need your help to keep doing it.You won't want to miss this episode with Clay Jacobson. Not only does he drop some serious knowledge on me, but he's a great dude as well.

Dan Sedlacek, at 14, was inspired to seek out the PCT when he met a group of friendly thru-hikers. Years later, he and his brother tackled the 2600+ mile trail using gear they had made themselves. Here a second inspiration would hit, a desire to create a handmade gear company. Now, Dan runs Uphill Designs located in Seattle.
