In this special "Morning Hike" episode of Trail Talk, Mr. Mielke takes you on a pre-dawn journey to Mount Phillips at Philmont Scout Ranch, where planning, vision, and trust led to a once-in-a-lifetime sunrise. Through real trail experiences and thoughtful reflection, we explore why leadership — like catching the sunrise — requires intentionality, patience, and readiness. Sometimes you trust what you can see. Sometimes you trust what you believe is coming. Whether on the trail or in life, this episode reminds us: wake up early, lead with vision, and be ready to catch the sunrise.
