Ep. 674: Halfway Point Update of Appalachian Trail Thru-Hike - Alex “Armadillo” Dyson

Hiking: Alex “Armadillo” Dyson Halfway Update on Appalachian Trail – Harper’s Ferry Midpoint Call from Mountaintop, Delayed Spring Start, Wind, Birds, Train Background, Mid-Adventure Insights.

Today we have Alex “Armadillo” Dyson give us his halfway point update from the Appalachian Trail. His original plan was to leave much earlier in the spring, but I think we all understand why that wasn’t as doable.

He’s joining us near Harper’s Ferry, recognized as the symbolic halfway point of the trail. He actually called us from a mountaintop after a long day on the trail. You’ll hear the wind, birds, and even a train in the background during the call. Talk about a mid-adventure interview!

Follow Alex for the rest of his journey on Instagram. He posts some incredible shots!
