In today's show, our hikers discuss the evolution of their hiking groups over the course of their journeys.  Injuries occur, people grow apart, paces differ, life happens.  You get to learn the ins and outs of how and why this happens directly from the mouths of our hikers.  Also, we say farewell to another of our trail correspondents.  You'll get to hear who's getting off- and why- at the end of our hikers' updates.

In today's show, we hear from:

• Jacob Beaver
• Kate Mueller aka Sassafras 
• IBTAT
• Madeline Newel
• Miles Bisher aka "Miles To Go"
• Kate Emmons
• Lukas Isaacson
• Sarah Mowery
• Rachael “Rabbit” DeLano
