from Adventure Sports Podcast · host Curt Linville

Thru-hiking triple crown: Nic's rebirth after quitting his 9-5 job on doctor's orders to hike the Appalachian Trail, completing the AT and Continental Divide Trail, gearing up for the Pacific Crest Trail, and embracing the kilt as a symbol of freedom, hope, and warmth. Thru-hiking triple crown: Nic's journey from quitting his 9-5 job on doctor's orders to thru-hike the Appalachian Trail for rebirth, completing the AT and Continental Divide Trail, and gearing up for the Pacific Crest Trail, all while embracing the kilt as a symbol of freedom, hope, and warmth.Many of us reminisce or daydream of times thru-hiking a spectacular trail. Not as many of us have a kilt on during that daydream. For Nic, the kilt is a beacon of freedom, hope and warmth (you’ll have to listen to learn more about that). After years of living the old 9-5 story, Nic was tired of the way life was going. He decided, on doctors orders, to quit his job and thru-hike the Appalachian Trail to be “reborn” into a life he was more excited about. He has now completed the AT, the Continental Divide Trail and Pacific Crest Trail. We caught up with Nic before his PCT hike. Follow Nic:Youtube.com/c/thewanderingkiltsmanInstagram: @thewanderingkiltsmanOur Sponsors:* Check out Nathan and Sons: https://nathanandsons.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
