Trail Stories - There's No Suck to Be Embraced with Bradford "Rafiki" Bartels (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Bradford "Rafiki" Bartels just became the first person to thru-hike the Alaska Long Trail — a roughly 500-mile route from Seward to Fairbanks that is still under development, was not on FarOut when he walked it, and has approximately 30 percent road walks connecting trail segments that, in his estimation, still feels like a complete thru-hike because the whole point of a thru-hike is to explore an ecosystem and immerse yourself in a backcountry environment, and the Alaska Long Trail delivers bot
The Route Makers - Episode 4: The Eraser and the Gift (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Route Makers Episode 4: Kevin "The Animal" Koski, Donovan "Iceman" Rice, Rue McKenrick, and Wesley "Megaman" Tils on what happens to a route after the map is drawn— the Great Colorado Route, the Four Corners Loop, and the American Perimeter Trail, and the years of correcting, erasing, and handing them off. A route doesn't end when the maker finishes walking it. That's when the real work starts. This episode is about the eraser and the gift: how a line keeps changing after its maker is gone,

Fitch has been traveling since 21, lives a leap-before-you-look life that has taken him on a borrowed bike from Paris to Italy at 18 (with a paper map bought the day before leaving, phone signal incompatible with France), a cruise from Spain to Brazil for €144 at a music festival, and a hitchhike across South America that ended in the back of a pickup truck full of sofas, bought them whiskey, and terrified them by pulling off the road under a bridge first. Fab's or
Hexatrek with a Dog - Fab, Fitch, and Billie (Part I) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Fab, Fitch, and Billie are currently halfway through the HexaTrek (France's 3,000-kilometer Grand Traverse) on their first thru-hike, as a couple who met just over a year ago in Australia. In Part 1, Doc covers the international team's origin story (a guy from the UK, a woman from Berlin, a dog from Australia, all meeting at a Facebook hike in Gold Coast), what it's actually like to design your own thru-hike on the fly because the dog-friendly alternate routes are poorly marked and occasionally
A Hiker's History of the Appalachian Trail with Mills Kelly, Author and A.T. Historian (Virginia Outdoors Adventures Podcast) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Appalachian Trail is more than a footpath - it’s a living piece of American history. Stretching over 2,000 miles from Georgia to Maine, the A.T. winds through some of Virginia’s most beautiful and rugged landscapes. But have you ever wondered how this legendary trail came to be, and who the dreamers, builders, and hikers were that shaped it? We’re hiking through history with someone who knows the Appalachian Trail like few others do. My friend, Mills Kelly, is a historian, archivist, podcast
