We say goodbye to Little Bear. This was the last day of our September #appalachiantrail section hike. We reach Massachusetts and the trail head for the Vermont Long Trail. #hiking #backpacking #sectionhiking #outdooradventure #nature

What a gift to be able to hike in Massachusetts at the night of leaf peeping season! #hiking #backpacking #seniorhikers #sectionhiking #autumn #leafpeeping #appalachiantrail

Balancing the longish interview with @bustedpretty.bsky.social (check it out!) with a very short video, Day 3 of our Vermont AT section hike in September. We see Little Bear three days in a row. Not typical to see a thru-hiker that many days. #backpacking #hiking #sectionhiking #appalachiantrail

What's your trail breakfast? I like oatmeal, but not every day. It's lightweight and filling. Taking time to cook breakfast forces me to take a moment and enjoy the experience. Sometimes getting moving is more important. #backpacking #hiking #sectionhiking #outdooradventures

Very excited for my debut as a podcast guest. Thank you Paddy, for the opportunity to join you on Busted Knees and Pretty Trees! I admit, I'm a bit nervous. Can't wait.

New episode drops tomorrow! @primetimehiker.bsky.social joins me to talk backpacking, thru-hiking, trail life, gear, what it's like being a woman on trail, and how she's inspiring thousands to start their own adventure! Don't miss it!
