The Aleutian Trail Podcast is a weekly conversation about hiking, trail judgment, and leadership in unpredictable conditions.
Each episode covers real-world decision-making on the trail from route planning and weather assessment to group dynamics and risk management. Some episodes focus on practical skills. Others unpack the mindset behind good judgment.
No hype. No exaggerated adventure stories. Just experience, analysis, and honest reflection from the field.
Full episodes and extended discussions are available for members via Patreon.
How the Podcast Was Born
How the Podcast Was Born
About six years ago, they started hosting informal “trail talks” in the Aleutian Mountains.
Small groups. Fire pit. Coffee in tin mugs.
Talking about how to read the wind, how to not panic when you lose the trail, how to move through fog—literally and metaphorically.
Someone recorded one of the talks.
It spread.
Now the Aleutian Trail Podcast is half technical mastery (gear, route planning, terrain reading) and half philosophy (why we go into hard places at all).
