Settle in and buckle up as Dirty Jar shares all things LT, including the importance of dance pants, the goat lady, solo ascents in wind storms, sleeping in privies, unhinged semi hitches, the Beast Coast, Slick Rick, accidental peak bagging, and, of course, all you ever wanted to know about America's first thru hiking trail. Epic. (This is Part I. Be sure to listen to Part II.)
