What does it take to dedicate your life to the trail? In this episode of the Halfway Feral Podcast, we’re joined by Araceli, a long-distance hiker working toward the Triple Crown of Hiking—completing the Pacific Crest Trail, Continental Divide Trail, and Appalachian Trail.

Araceli shares what it’s like to spend years on trail, how she fuels her adventures, and the mindset it takes to keep chasing big dreams mile after mile. From trail lessons to the daily realities of thru-hiking, this conversation is all about grit, joy, and living fully in the wild.

If you’ve ever dreamed of long trails, backpacking across states, or embracing a lifestyle built around adventure, this episode will inspire you to lace up and chase your own trail goals.
