Thru hikers and mental health advocates Maggie "Mariposa" Konopasek and Kyle "Important Bits" Ott take a brief break from their PCT planning and drop into the studio to talk trail with Doc. Settle in and buckle up as 'Posa and IB share their adventures, their mental health journey and their efforts to raise money for Bigger Than The Trail via their website (https://www.bttt.run/hiking-for-happiness). During the conversation, they cover a lot of ground, including discussions of leg pillows, night sweats, moose in camp, life-changing car accidents, the Ice Age Trail, the JMT, Whirly Bird, safety logs, disconjugate eye motion, wet bandits, shenanigans, toilet paper anxiety, and, of course, ramen bombs, whiskey, and cribbage. Epic.
