Ep. 1056: take less. do more - Glen Van Peski

Backpacking: Glen Van Peski, Gossamer Gear Founder, on Ultralight Philosophy, Hiking the Pacific Crest Trail, Bikepacking the Great Divide, International Backcountry Adventures, and Life Lessons from His Book Take Less. Do More. Glen Van Peski is a retired civil engineer who accidentally started the ultralight backpacking gear company Gossamer Gear. Besides an avid ultralight backpacker and bike packer in the U.S. and abroad, he’s an entrepreneur, author, speaker, philanthropist and dishwasher. He recently wrote take less. do more. Surprising Life Lessons on Generosity, Gratitude and Curiosity from an Ultralight Backpacker, after he realized that the lessons he learned from almost 50 years of lightening his pack weight also had applications to living a more fulfilling life off the trail.

His extensive outdoor adventures include hiking most of the Pacific Crest Trail, exploring the backcountry in Japan and Europe, and bikepacking along the Great Divide Mountain Bike Route (GDMBR). Glen lives in Bend, Oregon, with wife of over 40 years Francie, and is the father of two grown sons.
