Ep. 74: Finding Wilderness Close to Home
Episode 74
Saturday, 11 April, 2026

In this episode we hear about two very different ways to design a local wilderness adventure in the same area. Jeremy recounts his local backpacking adventure in Marin County, California, and listeners Janna and Grant Glaze describe their own lodge-to-lodge adventure in the same area, which they hiked with their toddler son, Summit. Jeremy also talks through some of the factors to consider in designing your own local wilderness hiking adventure.Janna and Grant's YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@grantandjannaOutdoor Herbivore (TWH10P for 10% discount): https://outdoorherbivore.com/Highlander Big Bear Lake 2026 (TWH20 for 20% discount): https://www.highlanderadventure.com/en-us/big-bear-lakeMembership/Support: https://buymeacoffee.com/trailsworthhikingwebsite: https://www.trailsworthhiking.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/trailsworthhikingpodcast/email: trailsworthhiking@gmail.comJeremy's YouTube channel: Go-Go Retirement: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCeko5J9u1WD-7Pc7TnCa9qQ
