This week we are joined by the dynamic duo of Rebecca and Danielle to talk about their recent completion of the White Mountain Redline / Trace. This challenge entails hiking every trail in the white mountain guide and is a feat that very few people complete. They have both been working on their redlines independently for a number of years and have now completed their goals. We are going to ask them to reflect on their accomplishments and go through planning, logistics, struggles, and the triumph of completing what many consider to be the most challenging goal in the White Mountains. In addition we will talk about an incoming storm to hit later next weekend, a lost dog story, what happens when your parachute does not open, more gear reviews, House of Dragons, in our beer drinking segment a deep dive on Artificial Intelligence helping to make IPAs, notable hikes all over the whites,
