Ep. 179: Climbing Grand Teton and CDT Preparations with Craig Dinkel

Craig Dinkel's adventurous life began with a near-drowning at the very young age of just 2. But instead of this experience leaving him with a fear of water, Craig ultimately became an excellent swimmer competing for Cal State and qualifying for the Olympic trials. He’s an entrepreneur having grown a company from ground level into a half billion dollar market only to be wiped out by the dot com crash. Craig eventually found himself at the summit of 13,775 ft Grand Teton in Wyoming and ultimately catching the bug to attempt a through hike of the Continental Divide Trail and hopefully bag the triple crown thru-hiking the Continental Divide Trail, Pacific Crest Trail and the Appalachian Trail. Craig is also the founder and owner of the supplements company BioTropic Labs.   www.biotropiclabs.com   Our Sponsors: * Check out Badlands Ranch: badlandsranch.com/ASP * Check out Gaia Provides and use my code ASP for a great deal: www.gaiaprovides.com * Check out Incogni and use the code ADVENTURESPORTS at checkout: https://incogni.com/adventuresports * Check out Liquid IV and use my code ASP for a great deal: www.liquid-iv.com * Check out Mint Mobile: mintmobile.com/ASP * Check out Moorings: moorings.com * Check out Outdoor Electronics: feathersnapcam.com * Check out Shopify: shopify.com/asp * Check out The Wonderful Company: https://www.wonderfulpistachios.com/ * Install Airalo today so you can stay connected wherever you travel and use my code ASP to get $3 USD OFF your first eSIM!
