Episode Description
When Tara Karineh and her husband embarked on a thru-hike with their three-year-old daughter, Acacia, they weren't sure she'd be able to finish the trail.
Acacia regularly went hiking with her parents, but a multi-day backpacking trip took things to a different level.
On this episode, Tara tells the story of their attempt of the Trans-Catalina Trail, exploring what it takes for a small child to accomplish something big.
