Tomcat shares three shorter thru-hikes that you can do in about 2 or 3 weeks. We chat about the Ouachita, Benton MacKaye and Allegheny Trails. 

He goes over trail logistics, camp sites and set up, gear, resupply options, water carries, trail angels and trail magic and favorite parts of each thru-hike. 

Listeners can find out more about these trails and more by visiting Tomcat's blog and Facebook page

You can also check out our episode on The Colorado Trail here and our interview about completing the Northeast 115 here.
