#44: Mailbag!

It’s time again for our monthly mailbag episode where we answer questions from our listeners about national parks and other public lands, as well as questions about gear, hiking trails, and a broad range of travel-related topics.

Some of the questions/topics we discuss in this episode:

• What kind of backpacks we use on our hikes
• Whether or not mosquito headnets really work
• Why we don’t use hydration bladders in our backpacks
• Which parks are good for small children
• Why we each have our own passport stamp books
• Whether or not we’ll be heading back to the Chilkoot Trail again this summer
• Driving a remote and rugged dirt road in Capitol Reef National park
• Advice and tips for older hikers
