  • In this episode, we are joined by Amy Hunsucker or "Slider" as she's known on trail. She is a Triple Crowner (!!!) and recently finished this amazing feat at the Southern Terminus of the Pacific Crest Trail.

    Slider was part of our 2023 Trail Team and we loved following along with her adventures. In this Q&A we talk about her trail name, the unique item she carries, cow concerts, cosmic brownies, uncomfortable hitches, gear, her favorite trail, and so much more!
