On this episode we share a little Appalachian Trail advise for our 2022 Thru-Hikers. Thousands of potential AT Thru Hikers make their long journey each year trying to accomplish a complete end to end hike on our Country’s iconic trail. What is the most important piece of gear? We also gear test and discuss Altai Hok’s Snowshoe. A hybrid snowshoe that acts like a snowshoes but glides like a ski. We test it in Yellowstone National Park in Winter and share if it is better than traditional snowshoes for Winter Hiking
