Description

In this week's episode, Whitney and Makayla give our listeners the rundown of everything hiking from physical preparation, equipment, and trail navigation to how to create a safe, diverse, and welcoming hiking community for all. We also discuss our own hiking journeys, including Whitney's favorite PNW hikes, how she finds motivation outdoors, and her desire to see a mountain goat, and Makayla's newfound love for hiking in the snow, her vast knowledge of tree species, and the time she encountered a bear while hiking in a Bavarian town.
