A few of you have asked to come along for a leg of this journey. I'd love that. Below are the trips coming up in the next year — general timing and region only. Express interest, and once we've connected, I'll share the exact date and trailhead.

Exact dates and locations aren't published here. For everyone's safety — mine and yours — specifics are shared directly with people once we've talked. This isn't about distrust, just about not broadcasting a solo hiker's exact whereabouts to the whole internet a year in advance.
