This week, we’re off to the picturesque state of Vermont. I’ll do my best to keep the Noah Kahan references to a minimum—though, I mean, it was Stick Season, so no promises!

We kick things off by chatting about Gile Mountain in Norwich, VT. Mike dug up some cool info on the stairs along the trail, built by the Upper Valley Trails Alliance. You’ve got to check out their website, complete with pictures of these impressive stairs going up—mystery solved! But let’s be real, the breathtaking views of Killington from the top really steal the spotlight.

Next, we took a quick detour to Quechee Gorge. Another fantastic, family-friendly hike that’s perfect for anyone in the area. And while you’re in the neighborhood, if you’re into owls or birds in general, the VINS Center is definitely worth a stop!

After the hikes, it was time to grab some Heady Topper from the local store and head over to the Vermont Country Store. Because let’s face it, a trip to Vermont wouldn’t be complete without a little shopping spree! Thanks for listening!
