After any great adventure, there's a very good chance the life you come back to is not nearly as exciting or engaging as the adventure you recently finished. For many adventurers, this can lead to a pretty dark time in their life known as post-adventure depression.  Today we're chatting again with Joe Jiminez (from episode 443) who recently finished the Pacific Crest Trail. He's currently dealing with post-adventure life and was kind enough to share his feelings and experience from what he calls an epic adventure and transitioning back to normal life.  takingthealternate.com Instagram: @takingthealternate ANNOUNCEMENT: We will be taking a nearly two-week break from the show during the holidays.

Thomas recently became an empty nester and decided a grand adventure was what he needed. He got together with Churchill Clark, the great-great-great-great grandson of Captain William Clark of the Lewis and Clark Expedition to build a dugout canoe named Bella from a 20 foot Douglas Fir.   He traced his path along the Missouri River all the way to the Gateway Arch in St. Louis, a 5-month expedition along the same route Lewis and Clark took when returning to the East Coast.  This epic tale includes everything from puppies, bow fishing, and flooded rivers, to quaint towns, and peaceful moments of solitude.  A book about the experience will be released in March of 2020. You can preorder it here: http://www.hopspress.com/Books/Missouri_River.htm  Here’s a short documentary about the experience: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N-JgWTDUta0 Video about building the canoe: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CipwviRWeCU His YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/thomasjelpel www.elpel.info www.greenuniversity.com Try CS Instant Coffee for 50% off your first order for the months of September and October only!

Originally aired March 06, 2017 Shawn Forry joins us today to recount how he and Justin Lichter thru-hiked the Pacific Crest Trail in the winter. This is no small feat and as far as records tell, no one has managed it before! There is a whole lot more than just the PCT in this show. Shawn has also hiked the AT, the CDT, the Colorado Trail, the Long Trail, and many, many more. All that to say, the epic thru-hiking trails are NOT off-limits in the winter with the right equipment and experience.  www.shawnforry.com Try CS Instant Coffee for 50% off your first order for the months of September and October only!
