A two week solo backpacking trip exploring the Wallowas

from Peak Northwest Hosted by The Oregonian/OregonLive

For some adventurers, a two to four day backpacking trip can be the perfect amount of time to disconnect with the business of day to day life and reconnect with the nature around us. But, for others, a longer trip is needed, or in this case, wanted. This week on Peak Northwest podcast, breaking news and enterprise reporter Fedor Zarkhin recounts his most recent trip to the Wallowas, where he backpacked solo for 14 days. Here are some highlights from this week’s show: The must-see natural attractions of the Wallowas. What goes into food planning when backpacking for longer stints. Navigating with a good old fashioned physical map. The joys of disconnecting from technology. Multiple majestic mountain goat sightings.
