Triple Crowner and legendary thru hiker Liz "Snorkel" Thomas joins Doc in the studio to talk trail and Type II Fun. Settle in and buckle up as Snorkel discusses life-changing gear, plantar fasciitis, all you can eat buffets, golden hitches, the 20-minute gorge, blowdowns, rattlesnakes, the West Coast Trail, the Idaho Wilderness Trail, and the importance of napkins with gravy stains. Epic. (This is Part I. Be sure to listen to Part II.)
