This week, Stash recaps his unforgettable trip out to California, featuring adventures through Sequoia National Park, Kings Canyon National Park, and Yosemite National Park. From towering giant sequoias to jaw-dropping mountain views, he shares the highlights, stories, and surprises from hiking some of the most iconic landscapes in the country. We also dive into the wild story of a Brooklyn man who became trapped inside a cave, and discuss the incredible accomplishment of a 7-year-old climbing El Capitan.
