Description

First full day in Maine! Using the wait time in the bus station in Bangor, this episode slows down a bit to go deeper into the “why” behind the adventure. We’re just a couple of days from Katahdin now, let’s take a minute to reflect on the reason.

We’re climbing mountains, taking in the incredible views, and sorting out our backcountry logistics! In this episode, we dive deeper into what daily life is really like inside the Hundred Mile Wilderness. Plus, we're talking about the physical reality of the trail—specifically, how my knees are holding up after a few days of pounding the dirt.

Interview: Wayfinder | Episode 12

In today's episode, I sit down with my very first hiking partner—my daughter Haley, trail name "Wayfinder." Haley was right by my side from day one, navigating everything from the climb up Mount Katahdin through the grueling logs and bogs of the Hundred Mile Wilderness. Tune in to hear a high-level recap of June 2025 entirely from her perspective, tracking the highs, the hurdles, and what the experience of stepping onto the Appalachian Trail was truly like for her.
