Back in the dark days of 2020, I started writing for the online backpacking journal, TheTrek.co, even heading the editorial while their Managing Editor was on a 6-month sabbatical. All of my contributions can be found on my author page.
Along with many of the thru-hike blogs that I originally published on HikeforDays, I’ve written a lot of gear reviews, which are collected on the Gear Reviews page. Additionally, I have created a bunch of thru-hiking-related articles about this and that. I’ve linked these below, in order of my preference:
