Episode #01 - Getting it all together

In the first episode of Hiking Radio Network's new show, Steve chats with Ryan Hopkins about his upcoming AT thru-hike. They discuss his trail name, the logistics of both hiking and putting together the podcast, as well as Ryan's life-long search for optimal mental health.

This show will eventually be all Ryan, as he records his experiences out on the trail. These early episodes will track his approach to hiking, his gear selections, the things he's NOT looking forward to and the things that he can't wait to see.

We hope that you'll want to join us on this journey as we find out what it is really like out on the trail when the cameras aren't rolling.
