Andrew Skurka on Quitting Thru-Hiking Forever

If you're interested in joining a guided wilderness expedition lead by Andrew Skurka, go to: https://bit.ly/49uZ4NB Over the last 20 years, Andrew Skurka's hiked the Appalachian Trail, the Pacific Crest Trail, the Colorado Trail, the Sea-to-Sea Trail, the Great Western Loop, the Hayduke Trail, the Alaska-Yukon Expedition, and countless more trails. And over those 30,000 miles, he's learned and lived a great many lessons. Today, Andrew walks us through why he quit thru-hiking forever, and how his adventurous life led him to guiding and off-routing. Photo and field video credit to Andrew Skurka.
