@SpencerBackman | The 1,200 Mile Walk
Description
In this episode of The Darkroom Podcast we spoke with lifestyle and adventure photographer Spencer Backman about his recent 1200 mile walk down the California coastline. Spencer found himself in a similar situation as many of us do, working hard with a seemingly great life on paper but feeling empty at the same time. He had a great relationship and job but realized he needed a shock that would change everything to fill this unexplainable void. Spencer decided that thing was to make a 1200 mile walk through the California coast. Over 98 days he walked over 6 million feet, capturing the landscapes around him. Spencer put his experience all together in The Twelve Hundred Mile Walk Book that’s now sold out. Throughout his journey, Spencer battled conditions like landslides that deviated him from his course, a lack of food and dealt with unmapped terrain. We're excited to bring you his story!
