A Campfire Conversation - Featuring Rainier, Acadia and Broad Peak

Lucky for you, you survived part one, but the trail isn’t done with you yet. The boys pick up where they left off and find out whether their choices get them out alive.

Pick your path, pack your bag, and try to make it through a trail that’s rigged against you. The boys make choices and see if they can survive their trip.

Flash monsoons, a double decker lean-to and cold burritos. The boys rip the trail up go live in the Nantahala National Forest.

Deep in the southern Blue Ridge Mountains lies the horseshoe-shaped Nantahala Basin. The boys laid out their plans to tackle the "Land of the Noonday Sun."TRAIL THEORY STORE⁠⁠Become a Patreon member
