WRM 015: Ned Tibbits: Finding Purpose & Passion in the Great Outdoors for 50 Years
Description
Ned Tibbits has a passion for the lifestyle that's lasted over a half century. He is the founder and head of Mountain Education, an organization dedicated to helping others learn how to survive & thrive in the outdoors.
But his journey began when he was a kid in scouting, and deepened in his teens. As soon as he graduated from high school, he hiked the Pacific Crest Trail in 1974 - one of only a dozen people to do so.
That journey was more than just a really long hike. For him the months and miles enabled him to find his purpose and spiritual connection.
In this interview he reflects back on that trip and other experiences that have shaped his life & career. And he also shares hard-won knowledge and suggestions that can help you deepen your love for hiking and backpacking ... and perhaps even hike the PCT for yourself.
