The Long Ways Podcast ·

2025/10/23

We are starting a new segment to the podcast, called Trail Tech Hacks - apps and/or tech that we use on the trail to make the journey a little easier or more enjoyable. We are starting with one of our favorite trail apps - the Merlin birding app from Cornell Labs. How many times have you been on a trail and heard a bird sound, and wondered... what the hell is that?!

We are back from our 7th Long Ways hike! And this time we come full circle to where we began in 2019... Scotland!
