Summary

Sophia Garber joins the podcast to tell the story of her 2020 Northville Placid Trail thru hike in the Adirondacks. She hiked it very shortly after Flossy and I did, and despite the similar time-frame... her hike sounded way more fun! So if you thought my NPT story was kind of a downer, give Sophia's a listen and hopefully you will get a different perspective on the trail!

0:00.0	What's going on, everybody? Welcome to episode 95 of Trail Tales. My name is Kyle O'Grady. I am a
0:15.7	through hiker. I am a peak bagger. I am a huge hiking nerd. And every single week on this podcast. I chat with other
0:23.2	through hikers and other peakbangers and other hiking nerds about their experiences on the trail,
0:26.1	blah, blah, blah, blah. Episode number 95 with Sophia Garber. She hiked the Northville
0:32.5	Placid Trail just about a week and a half, I think, after I did. So that's kind of the focus of this conversation.
0:39.8	So hopefully you guys all heard a few episodes ago when Flossi and I went through our Northville Placet Trail Through hike.
0:45.9	It didn't go the greatest, I think, is a fair way to put it.
0:50.3	And fortunately, Sophia's hike, it sounds like that one went a lot better.
0:54.6	And I'm honestly glad that I had the chance to have her on here to talk about that
0:58.6	because I don't want to just completely paint the Norfield Placet Trail in nothing but a negative light.
1:04.1	So it was a great talk.
1:05.7	Sophia, when you hear this, thank you so much for coming on the show.
1:08.7	We're going to do another one soon.
1:10.6	Before we get into the conversation, let me just plug a couple things here.
1:13.6	No advertisement this week, so it's going to be a short intro, I promise.
1:17.6	Trail Tales, Patreon, that's what I'm going to advertise instead.
1:21.6	Well, I guess I usually do it anyways, but yeah, the Trail Tales Patreon, go to patreon.
1:25.6	Go to patreon.com slash trail tales.
1:28.3	If you're one of the hiking nerds that listens to this podcast week after week, you know,
1:33.1	listen, I know most of you probably just tune in every now and then.
1:36.3	That's cool.
1:36.8	I can't really expect you to sign up for a Patreon if you only listen every now and then.
