In today's episode of Backpacker Radio, presented by The Trek,
we are joined by five sixths of the Strawbridge Family. The
Strawbridges successfully thru-hiked the PCT SOBO in 2018 with four
kids in tow- ages 11, 13, 14, and 17. We chat about
everything you can dream of regarding hiking as a family, including
how they handled school, gear, their pace, everyone's emotional and
physical well being, and so on. Vince and Monica, aka
mom and dad, are fact checked by Georgie, Henry, and June, the
youngest three of the four kids. This is a fun interview,
Chaunce and I laughed in excess, and hopefully serves as
inspiration for young families looking to inject more adventure
into their lives.
We close out the show with a triple crown of ways to pass time on
trail and of course, more listener poop stories.
