#168: Adventures on the bogachiel trail (a.k.a. how the jungle chewed us up and spat us out) w/ Michelle Wong

About this episode

Michelle shares her challenging backpacking adventure on the Bogachiel Trail in the Olympic Peninsula.

In this episode, Michelle, a novice backpacker, shares her backpacking adventures on the Bogachiel Trail in the Olympic Peninsula with her partner (who is a very experienced hiker and backpacker). This 30mile backpacking trip was supposed to be nice, relaxing, mostly easeful downhill along the Bogachiel River. But it turned out to be an unexpected, grueling, trip laden with challenges. Tune in as Michelle tells the story, and how to not always trust reviews. Some photos from the trip are in Michelle's substack - view it here: https://michellewongxo.substack.com/publish/post/191932449 == Host: Michelle Wong, #BreathworkGuide, #CourageCatalyst #SpaceHolder is an initiator, visionary, and author of Set Your Own Sail: Fire Your Alarm Clock and Awaken to What's Possible .
