Hello Wild People, we’re nearing the home stretch of our Colorado Trail thru hike. This week I’d like to share one of my favorite episodes featuring a poem I wrote during the Sierra section of our PCT trip in 2022. I wrote it as I ascended up the many passes in this section as I found myself growing steadily stronger. https://youtu.be/iTVT8G05Muo?si=j-0DT...

Hello Wild People,
I would like to share the story behind my first documentary, A Pacific Crest Trail Coddiwomple. Our 2022 PCT adventure was life-changing in so many ways. When I produced this video, I little expected anyone to be drawn to the story of an old guy who saw the trail as a way to recovering his health. I thought my lamentations of growing old would fall on disinterested ears. Little did I know, there were many others out there who felt the same way, and I connected with so many wonderful people through this film. A few people said the film inspired them to attempt a grand adventure. https://youtu.be/jgWAvNRH-eo?si=o80pG...

Wild People. I am taking a break from publishing my weekly videos as I continue my backpacking tripon the Colorado Trail. The trail has inspired many new ideas for topics. Please follow AKWild1 on Facebook to follow our adventure. I’ll also publish links to my favorite videos on this channel with the stories behind them. Thank you.

Wild People: I’m sorry I haven’t responded to do many of your comments. I’m a bit pre-occupied with 3000-foot climbs. I’ll respond soon.

Hello Wild People, I am enjoying the Colorado Trail. This Saturday’s episode examines, humorously I hope, the skills needed to hike with younger hikers.

Good morning Wild People. This is my view this morning. I’ll have a backpacking trip to share with you this Saturday. Hope you’ll tune in and get out — into the Great Outdoors, pursuing something real.

Hello Wild People, tune in Saturday for Neil Hannan's report on his recent trip to Vietnam. Neil is a combat veteran who has returned to his old battlefields in Vietnam, only this time bringing light, as he seeks to help the elderly, the poor and children. Neil is a great example of living well as we grow older.
