As morning dawns on Carrie’s birthday, the question remains….will it be bad or marginal— at best? The day has a few surprises for them…including meeting trail celebs and an old friend!

Carrie and Molly put in a long day headed to Stagnant Pond. Along the way they encounter a toilet, discuss a new brand of Mac and cheese, and use PT skills to fix a disobedient hip on trail. Join us in the Desolation wilderness!

The sisters seek out help repairing their rain fly, resupply for the journey ahead and discuss the disadvantages of glacier water flavored with socks.

Molly and Carrie journey 20 miles to Tahoe City for a town day experience with bears, value hotels, a fellow backpacker, and a hot tub filled with teenagers.

The third day of the Tahoe Rim Trail brings great views, springs, water caches, tent issues and most of all a massive spider that tries to sleep in Carrie’s bed.

The sisters discuss their second day on trail—fire spotting, bike trail walking, excessive cell service, spiders, upside-down eating and more

We’re baaack! The sisters head to the California/Nevada border to tackle the Tahoe Rim Trail. Get ready for a spontaneous adventure taking advantage of a late season weather window with all the laughs and challenges that come along with it.

Molly and Carrie go back to Yosemite to finish the section of trail from Tuolumne to Happy Isles. They reflect on the beginning of their adventure and enjoy an amazing fall day with a trail friend who returned to finish the trek with them.

We’re taking a brief hiatus from recapping the JMT, but we couldn’t leave you without an update! Hear what we’ve been doing and tune in next week for our final John Muir Trail episode!

It’s finally here! Carrie and Molly recount their summit of Mt Whitney and the day leading up to it. They reunite with friends (unexpectedly!) and talk spy kids instant foods and thanksgiving sides as they wrap up this wonderful adventure through the Sierras.
