What's up everybody? Welcome to Trail Tales. My name is Kyle O'Grady. I'm a through hiker. I'm a peak beggar. I am a huge hiking nerd. You all know that so well at this point. This is going to be a great

episode. I have a conversation with Jacob Younger, who I actually met on the Northville

Placid Trail. He happened to come rolling up with his friend Tyler to a shelter that Flossie

and I were staying at. And, well, I will save the rest

of the story for the episode because we talk about it a little bit. Jacob has done a ton of stuff.

We talk a little bit about Pennsylvania and all the random little through hikes they have over there,

which is not something you think about when you think of Pennsylvania we talk about his newly formed

gear company called riganet gear which is a really really cool it's it's always cool for me to hear

a story of somebody just kind of like taking a jump into the deep end of like trying to start a

new business like that so i think that's really cool and he also hiked the appalachian trail in

2019 so he's just a big old hiking nerd just like me and business like that. So I think that's really cool. And he also hiked the Appalachian Trail in 2019.

So he's just a big ol' hiking nerd just like me. And we kind of just go all over the place.

So Jacob, when you hear this, I would love to do another episode sometime soon. And thank you so much for coming on.

Folks, we're going to keep this intro short. I feel like I say that pretty much every single week at this point.

But I appreciate you listening.

Thank you for being here and maybe leave a five-star review on iTunes.

Actually, definitely do that if you want to help support the show.

That's it.

Folks, let's get into the episode number 104 with Jacob Younger.

All right, episode number 104, I think it is, of Trail Tales.
