Derek and Carl have had their fair share of trip failures. Some are unavoidable or unpredictable but the 6 characters outlined in this episode you've probably already experienced (or will experience) in some form or fashion. Is Derek the kinder, gentler soul when a fellow hiker is having an issue? He discusses his 'hug quota' per day to suggest as much. Also, Carl reveals a way a recent trip was sabotaged in an unexpected way by a member of his family...before it even started.
