#124 | Ice Age Trail + Wisconsin Recap

Published 4 years, 2 months ago
Description

In today's episode of Backpacker Radio presented by The Trek, Badger, Chaunce, and Sauce give you the full recap of our recent Wisconsin Ice Age Trail Road Trip Extravaganza. We give you a play-by-play of the highlights from the trail, town, the live events, and all the TMI inside stories and embarrassing moments in between. Casual warning to listeners- you will walk away from this one wanting to hike the Ice Age Trail and/or gorge yourself on fried fish.

We wrap with a very brief segment discussing the new rebrand of Guthook Guides.
