Episode 132 - Danielle & Rebecca White Mountains Redline/Trace completion

https://slasrpodcast.com/     [email protected]  This week we are joined by the dynamic duo of Rebecca and Danielle to talk about their recent completion of the White Mountain Redline / Trace. This challenge entails hiking every trail in the white mountain guide and is a feat that very few people complete.  They have both been working on their redlines independently for a number of years and have now completed their goals. We are going to ask them to reflect on their accomplishments and go  through planning, logistics, struggles, and the triumph of completing what many consider to be the most challenging goal in the White Mountains. In addition we will talk about an incoming storm to hit later next weekend, a lost dog story, what happens when your parachute does not open, more gear reviews, House of Dragons, in our beer drinking segment a deep dive on Artificial Intelligence helping to make IPAs, notable hikes all over the whites,  This weeks Higher Summit Forecast Welcome back to our sponsor - Fieldstone Kombucha   About Our Guests Sockedinhikes LinkTree The New England Hiker  72belowd About White Mountain Trails/Trace/Redline   Topics Snow coming in - disputed forecast Hikers get caught in a volcano explosion in Indonesia Lost Dog gets rescued & Walt and Gus the Bernese Mountain Dog Celebrities National Park update - Housing Migrants Lady survives a parachute fall from 14,000 feet Gear Review - Inline boot cover Snow Coverage Map Cambridge implements native american language signage Pop Culture Talk Beer Talk Recent Hikes - Danielle on Monroe via Ammo Notable Hikes  Guests of the Week - Welcome Danielle and Rebecca    Show Notes Apple Podcast link for 5 star reviews SLASR Merchandise SLASR LinkTree Mt Washington Snow Coach opening early on Dec. 8th Update as of 12-6-23: 23 hikers presumed dead Lost burmese dog found by Co hikers after 2 months Walter and Gus Links - Youtube - TikTok - Instagram Update:Migrants & National Parks The amazing story of Joan Murray Gear Review - Affordable, lt. weight boot covers for mud and water crossings.
