Over the River and Thru the Woods

 In this episode we address the very difficult question: How might your hike impact the spread of COVID-19 in the trail community?  Our qualified expert this week is Dr Kathryn Michels, (aka "Mr Peanut), a CDT SOBO thru hiker who also  holds a PhD in Microbiology, Immunology, and Cancer biology from the University of Virginia.  In addition to covering this very important topic, we get some good trail talk too.    Dr Michel's Reddit Post The Appalachian Trail Reddit Page Dr-Peanut's CDT Blog Reptar Get more episodes AND support the show!
