Perfect Hiking Podcast for Rookies and Veterans Alike
Absolutely love this podcast!! Such great information for hiking rookies and veterans alike with a variety of episode formats and knowledgable guests - many with years of experience in the backcountry. The host, Cheer, is a triple crowner herself and not only asks amazing questions but brings a wealth of knowledge to the episodes as well. And, she’s fun! Highly recommend for anyone interested in hiking/ backpacking/ the outdoors and getting out more often!
