Trail Correspondents: S5 Episode 11 | Your Diet
Hiker hunger has officially entered the chat. Our 2026 Trail Correspondents dig into the realities of eating their way along the AT, PCT, and CDT, from relentless cravings and questionable trail snacks to discovering exactly what keeps their bodies fueled mile after mile. What sounded like a good idea before the hike doesn’t always survive contact with the trail—and sometimes, nothing tastes better than whatever you can get your hands on next.
