Trail Tales

Colton "CJ" Cosby is working towards the goal of being the first Triple Crowner with cystic fibrosis. I had the pleasure of meeting CJ during my Pacific Crest Trail hike this summer, and wanted him to come on the show to share his inspiring story.  CJ's YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@coltoncosby CJ's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/coltonjcosby/ If you're really into Trail Tales, please consider supporting my content on Patreon (best way to support the show): https://www.patreon.com/kylehateshiking/ Check out my YouTube for the Pacific Crest Trail vlogs: https://www.youtube.com/c/KyleHatesHiking/ Like what you hear?

AT thru hiker Luke McKay edited my Pacific Crest Trail videos this summer, and he joins the show to talk about how the hell we pulled it off, plus we talk a lot about the Appalachian Trail, embarrassing moments on trail, and much more. We recorded this episode in September, before I had re-started the show, so this was actually the first episode I had done since August of 2021.  Check out Luke's YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@experienceoverthings7083 If you're really into Trail Tales, please consider supporting my content on Patreon (best way to support the show): https://www.patreon.com/kylehateshiking/ Check out my YouTube for the Pacific Crest Trail vlogs: https://www.youtube.com/c/KyleHatesHiking/ Like what you hear?

Brandon Sopher and I met on the Pacific Crest Trail on the third day of my PCT thru hike attempt.

Jonathan Zaherek is back on the show to talk about getting sendy in the Adirondacks. Whether it's backcountry skiing, or trail running (even on the uphills) Jonathan never holds back as he continues his quest to basically be the biggest Adirondack Hiking Nerd of all time. A special thanks to Nick Groves for popping into the conversation for a few minutes to speak about his quest to hike every mountain in the Adirondack Park that has a trail to the summit.
