Mighty Blue On The Appalachian Trail: The Ultimate Mid-Life Crisis

Episode #312 - Shepard Smith (Soundscape)


Listen Later

Shep Smith, or Soundscape, had a particular mission when he was on the Appalachian Trail. As a former oceanographer, Shep chose to map the sounds of the trail. He shares a few insights today, along with stories from his hike.

If this fascinating subject gets you as much as it did me, you can check out the interactive map that Shep refers to in our conversation. It is at https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/8839ac254aa2473a9f2d2947d48ce799

Also today, I caught up with Chuck Hays, now in the Smokies.
