In a tent with a French man : A daily thru hiking journal episodes
- HexaTrek day 45 : a crowded ascent on the eve of a day offI started without breakfast for a crazy 1000 ascent with ladders. The colorful crowd scared me down the valley and I started my day off...6 min
- HexaTrek day 44 : sliding in a névé and being too tired to continueI am reaching the end of what i can endure I'm afraid, and i need a day off or two to recharge and enjoy without feeling like a robot just pushing to go further. And i lost my bideeeeet!8 min
- HexaTrek day 43 : unexpected elevation and burgerA half day that actually counted as much as a full one in terms of elevation. Rest of the day was spent eating really6 min
- HexaTrek day 42 : bout du monde and helicoptersDay started by an helicopter landing and continued in one of the most beautiful place to date. Ended up by hiding in Sixt and thinking about the rest6 min

- HexaTrek day 40 : first real obstacle and thinking about philosophy of the HTI failed to pass a section because of the snow and going for alternative route, while thinking about who is the hexatrek for7 min
- HexaTrek day 39 : a rainy podcast with nostalgiaSeems like the sound didn't work well on that one, and I have a throwback on my past love life that didn't help6 min
- HexaTrek day 38 :my equipment is falling apart on the shortest day yetA 3000km hike is no joke on the body, but also on the equipment. Now I can only listen to my podcast from one ear, and I need a few changes and fixes here and there. Also the elevation is not helping me to cover distances...6 min
- HexaTrek day 37: I almost died today as I slipped into a ravine because I'm stupidSome days you feel good, some days it's horrible. This is a mix, but I really thought I would die when I tried this shortcut, and I've been stupid enough to continue despite obviously being on a goat trail. Sliding down a ravine is no fun, climbing back up neither. But the refuge de la Bise made up for it!11 min
- HexTrek Day 36 : back in a tent and alone on the trailLeaving Thonon was hard as I dreaded this next part, but despite starting late I ended up walking as far as a full day! I'm surprised by myself6 min
About In a tent with a French man : A daily thru hiking journal
From the publisher's feed
Hi, I'm Cartapouille, a bored french guy who has co-created and hiked the HexaTrek, 3000km to cross France through the mountains in 2022. I previously thru hiked the Via Adriatica in 2020. I also finished a small hike on the French Pyrenees following the GR10 for 150km. Each hike is a separate podcast season here.
Season 1 : Via Adriatica, Season 2: GR10, Season 3 : HexaTrek. Season 4: TransCaucasian Trail scouting
This is a daily short log to reassure my friends and family that I didn't die eaten by a bear or got blown up by a landmine.
