Film-maker, photographer, thru-hiker IB TAT joins the show to share his unique perspective and some engaging, outlandish stories from the trail. Why would a Walmart kick out hikertrash next to a long trail? Why did he feel compelled to break in to a backcountry ranger cabin? And what happened as a result? Also, Derek crafts a controversial trivia question. Shocking.
Some of the topics discussed:
-Ultralight Backpacking Gear
-Gear Fails
-What it Takes to start thru-hiking
-REI and filming the imposter store clerk video
