Rue McKenrick is an American backpacker and conservationist. He's a triple-crowner and the Executive Director of The American Perimeter Trail Conference, an organization dedicated to creating a 14,000-mile circumnavigational backpacking route of the continental United States. Recently, he completed a massive scouting trip of the proposed route, and we're honored to have him on the program today to discuss the route, the trip, and the WHY of it all.
