"Bring it baby, let's go!" In this episode we welcome 2021 PCT hiker, "Lite Brite" or Nikki Hughes. During our discussion we go over her trail prep, the raw and authentic way she’s committed to sharing her experiences on her Vlog (which we love here at THRU-r), and how she became inspired to hike the PCT in the first place - among many other things. Enjoy!
