Who is "Dosu Kinuta?"

We have the privilege of speaking with the one and only, Dosu Kinuta!

An episode diving into the feelings of living a life on trail. Multiple times throughout our chat we went back to unpacking the mentality on what it means to live a life for trail, on trail, and what it means when this is not just a temporary moment, but an entire way of living.

Dosu began hiking back in 2014 and hasn't stopped since. Accumulating many miles and many memories along the way, he is now setting himself up to complete all 11 National Scenic Trails in the hiking season of 2022. An aggressive itinerary to be sure with the Natchez Trace, Potomac Heritage Trail, New England Trail, Ice Age Trail, and North Country Trail. Yet, one that he looks forward to with much optimism and excitement. When you can find fuel in the "everyday" you will always have energy. When its not a specific trail you are after, but instead just living your life, the way ahead remains clear.

Reaching this "goal" for him is just the natural progression of hiking. Stay tuned as we talk about what his "goal" is for this life that he lives, and the time that he spends living life on trail and off. It was a wonderful answer to hear and unpack.

FAVORITE QUOTES: "Age 33 I started the AT, and found my first home"

"It is a privilege to do what we do and not be scared of it"
