This week I sit down for a Summit Session with host of Jester Section Hiker Podcast, Julie "Jester" Gayheart to discuss her recent adventures here in the Adirondack Mountains. Julie is currently working on completing her second full lap of the Appalachian Trail (yes, her second lap) and made a pit stop here in the ADK to experience these mountains she's heard so much about.
In the episode we hear all about her first impression of the ADK, as well as get into her own recent transformation following foot surgery and weight gain, and the work she put in to overcome those challenges to get back to the place she loves most- the trail.
Inspirational doesn't do her story justice!
