When I hiked the Pacific Crest Trail I took a small video every day because I thought “it would look cool to see how the trail changes over time”. More than two years after my Pacific Crest Trail thru-hike, and I finally go around to putting all those clips together into a short video. Said […]
Mac’s Backpacking Gear List 2018 (v2.0)
We’re not even halfway into the year and I’m already making some dramatic additions to my current gear outfit. I’ve got my first non-freestanding shelter (Hyperlite Mountain Gear Ultamid 2), my first bivy (Enlightened Equipment Recon), and my first quilt (Enlightened Equipment Revelation).

Continental Divide Trail Week 5: Don’t Die

Continental Divide Trail Week 4: One Month In
DAY 22: On-trail pizza delivery There may only be two of us now that Appa is MIA until we make it to Grants, but that doesn’t mean Moist and I get going any earlier in the morning (it’s not like we start hiking together anyway – you start hiking when you’re packed up and ready […]
Halfway Anywhere: The Origin Story
If there’s one question that you folks contact me with the most, it’s this, “How do you support yourself? How do you make money? What on Earth are you doing to be able to support this [apparent] life of indefinite travel!?” As I do with most things I find myself responding to in emails over […]
