Baker is back once again, and this time he GOES OFF on some of the insane Colorado hiking/backpacking adventures he has had. We also spend some time talking about our future PCT hikes (wink wink), and of course sprinkle plenty of jokes/nonsense throughout the episode.

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!

In this two-part episode I start off by talking about the worst hiking injury I've ever experienced, which happened recently while backpacking the Cranberry Lake 50 in the Adirondacks. I talk about what went wrong, what we can do to learn from it... and how much it sucked. Here's a link to the video of my hike: https://youtu.be/ggwHwgPtF7w
In part 2, the wonderful Trail Tales editor and thru hiker Rose "Comics" Turner is back for a conversation about her experience as an Appalachian Trail shuttle driver, as well as some (rare) sketchy characters that have been on the AT this year.

Jonathan Zaherek is back on the show to talk about getting sendy in the Adirondacks. Whether it's backcountry skiing, or trail running (even on the uphills) Jonathan never holds back as he continues his quest to basically be the biggest Adirondack Hiking Nerd of all time. A special thanks to Nick Groves for popping into the conversation for a few minutes to speak about his quest to hike every mountain in the Adirondack Park that has a trail to the summit.

The last time Appalachian Trail thru hiker Baker Bokorney was on the show, we put out a call for Trail Tales listeners to send him DMs on Instagram. That was pretty much the only criteria, and 8 of you delivered. Many of the messages discussed cool/lesser known thru hikes that folks want to complete, and many of them were roasting me as well. Woohoo, enjoy 🙃 Baker's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bbokorney/

Previous Trail Tales guest and thru hiker Russell Corfman is back exactly 100 episodes later! In our conversation we cover a number of different subjects including the bizarre (but awesome) concept of trail names, Russell's time on the Tahoe Rim Trail, and the Black Canyon Trail near Phoenix.
