Welcome to the John Muir Trail Podcast Series - I'm taking a little summer break from the podcast while I head off on some new adventures (and guide some epic client trips too!). But I didn’t want to leave you hanging—so I’m sharing something special: a never-before-released Trail Series from our John Muir Trail thru-hike.
Today was all about putting in steady miles and soaking in the simplicity of trail life.
We hiked from Guitar Lake down to the Shepherd Pass junction—nothing too intense, just a consistent grade with beautiful granite landscapes and blue skies overhead.
We crossed paths with a few interesting hikers (including someone dealing with altitude sickness), had songs stuck in our heads, and reflected on the weird little routines that form when you’re five days deep into the backcountry. Plus: some honest updates on feet, battery life, and what it’s like to hike with a USB-powered life system.
In this episode:
- Hiking from Guitar Lake to Shepherd Pass junction
- Random trail thoughts, musings, and song obsessions
- Interactions with fellow hikers + altitude stories
- Battery and gear performance updates
- A quiet, simple camp and a little peek into trail routines
🎧 Hit play and enjoy a slower day on trail with us—it’s not always about the passes.
