WE ARE BACK! On today's re-launch episode of the podcast, we chat with Rerouted founder and fearless leader, Chap Grubb.

Lastly, we are going to be releasing another highlight reel this year, featuring all of our favorite moments of 2021 on the podcast! Tune in to find out more about all of these things!

While he didn't make an attempt at climbing the mountain, he shares some very cool hikes that people can experience without preparing for an intense climb to the highest point in Washington State.
