Nate Palmer

I'm Nate Palmer (He/Him) and I'm thru-hiking the Pacific Crest Trail NOBO! I'm an old soul and a bit of a masochist at heart. I find meaning in identifying opportunity in adversity and sharing my happiness with others. I joined The Trek as a creative outlet and hope to share my journey with you in all of its glory: laughs, tears, and sour gummy worms!

The Terminus is Now

The Terminus is Now

The terminus is now, in each present moment. Loving the process - the ultimate goal is to be present in every moment, not dwell in expectation of the destination.
