144. Ray "Geared Up" Reynoso On Thru-Hiking Preparation, Top Treks In South America, & How Community Spans Borders
Appalachian Trail thru-hiker (and VERY experienced long-distance hiker all-around) Ray "Geared Up" Reynoso describes what he's been up to in pursuit of "warming up" for his third Appalachian Trail trek! In this recording, he gives insight on his training treks in South America. It's a hard-core way to train and it's definitely not recommended for beginners - but that's why we love to listen here!
In this episode you will:
Discover Ray's top trekking picks in South America (and why it doesn't include the Inca Trail)
Learn the key to having a smooth thru-hike
Hear examples of how the hiking community connection spans borders and cultures
