Description
Episode Summary: Join us for the long awaited interview with our good friend and tramily member: Tumbleweed! We get to rehash stories from our shared time on the PCT, including experiences with the dreaded norovirus. Tumbleweed also shares with us about his experience with the military, we get some solid heart-to-heart conversations, and we wrap up with an environmental corner that focuses on opportunist species that come in after wildfires.
A HUGE thanks to Sawyer & Leve Outdoors for sponsoring this episode!
