013 What Makes Up A Trail

  • Summary

  • Today’s solo episode is all about the components that make up trail descriptions and ratings. I dive into elevation, difficulty, distance, and how to use each to pick a hike that is right for you. In the episode, I mention a formula for calculating difficulty used by the National Parks Service. The formula can be found here.
