Happy New Year! Dan and Chantal want to give you an update on their 2023 hike of the Pacific Crest Trail. In the introductions that usually go for the first 8 minutes... we spend about the first 22 minutes of this podcast catching up with Dan reflecting on the passing of his Father this past Nov and also reflecting on the last 9 years after splitting up with the Mother of his two kids. Around the 23 minute mark, we update everyone on our 2023 hike. After that Dan updates on the current financials of this trip.
Going forward we are just about to start recording guests! We hope you enjoy this little journey with us. We appreciate the support people around us have given us including our Patrons.
Happy New Year and we are excited to do this trip and document it along the way that we are doing.
Dan + Chantal

Ep 1 - “It’s Easy. All You Have To Do Is Talk”
You can view the show notes for this episode here. We also have a Facebook Page for the Podcast here.
Father and daughter team from Toronto, Canada is working towards a goal of thru-hiking the Pacific Crest Trail together. Dan is at the mid-point of his life and about to celebrate a half-century and Chantal is now old enough to enjoy a cold glass of cider in Canada. By the time they embark, she will be able to enjoy a Northwestern craft IPA in the United States. I say Northwestern since she doesn't enjoy beer... so maybe 3 months into the hike she will learn the "hike and reward" of a cold beer around a campfire with our new tramily. (If anyone will hike with us).
