Lucas Smith has taken a, dare I say... untraditional route into the world of thru hiking. Rather than take on the Appalachian Trail or the PCT, Lucas has started his thru hiking journey by hiking the Buckeye Trail in Ohio, and the Ice Age Trail in Wisconsin. In this episode we mostly focus on the Ice Age Trail, so if you want to learn about a lesser-known trail that is still over 1,000 miles long, tune in!

#48 | A Single Year Grid of the South Beyond 6000; Peak-Bagging with Caet Cash
Tuesday Oct 15, 2019
Tuesday Oct 15, 2019
Thru-hiker and peak-bagger Caet Cash has completed the Appalachian Trail, Pacific Crest Trail, Adirondack 46, and much much more. She joins the show this week to discuss her current hiking project; tackling the South Beyond 6000 Single Year Grid. If successful, Caet will be the first hiker in history to have completed the South Beyond 6000 in a Single Year Grid. We talk all about what inspired this crazy project, how she lives the 'van life' in order to make the hiking logistics easier, and a comparison between thru-hiking and peak-bagging. The South Beyond 6000 is not as popular as famous lists like the White Mountain 4000-footers or the Adirondack 46, so hopefully this episode will inspire some folks to get outside in the Southeast!

Nick Scaramuzzo is a seasoned Northeast hiker, having peak-bagged in Vermont, the Adirondacks, and the Catskills, just to name a few places. In our chat we discuss the Catskills 3500-footer club and how the "rules" of the hiking list vary slightly from the more popular Adirondack 46 and White Mountain 48. We also talk about his upcoming thru-hike of the John Muir Trail, and some of his preparation for that, including how he navigated the tricky permit system in order to make his hike happen.
