Episode #42 - 40 Day Hikes on the MST (Hikes 1, 2, 3)

This week Jester begins her journey to hike all 40 Day Hikes on the MST from the book Great Day Hikes ON North Carolina's Mountains-To-Sea Trail.

Jester begins her quest to complete all 40 Day Hikes from the book Great Day Hikes ON North Carolina's Mountains-to-Sea Trail. In this week's episode, we hear about Hikes 1, 2, and 3. Jester starts with Hike #1 at the Western Terminus of the MST at Clingman's Dome. Hike #2 brings a 0.7-mile hike that has a lot of awesome surprises, and Hike #3 brings few views but a sign of fall and an amazing trail.

Thanks for listening and Happy Section Hiking!
