From gear to beer and back again
As more of a pedestrian than a hiker, before listening to the Take a Hike podcast, I didn’t really appreciate the wide variety of hikers, motivated by interests in nature, fitness, history, and/or the search for either solitude or sociability. Each guest brings a unique take on the outdoors, and Shannon gives them the chance to shine. It's also interesting to hear about all of the preparations that can go into each journey. One thing that all episodes have in common is that they provide motivation to get outside and put one foot in front of the other.
