We Ran 50 Miles Through Finland’s Wildest Trail

Nothing is as healing as nature. The crunch of the trail, the smell of fresh pines, the thumping of your heart on steady inclines to remind you that you’re alive. Last month, we lost our beloved pup Moses. He was, and this is no exaggeration, the sweetest boy there ever was. The pain of losing him was all encompassing, as if someone had switched off the light in our collective spirit. Suffice it to say, we could use a bit of healing. So, we dried our eyes and started this journey to the remote forests of northern Finland to fastpack the 82-kilometer Karhunkierros ‘Bear Trail’ over three days. ⭐️ Contact me to plan your next adventure or join us! https://www.burningriverrunningcompany.com/ 📖 Check out my moderately well-reviewed book Talking Tico: (Mis)adventures of a Gringo in and Around Costa Rica: https://joebaur.com/talking-tico-costa-rica-travel-book/ 🚶‍♂️ FOLLOW ME 🌍 My portfolio - https://www.joebaur.com ✍️ My blog - https://www.withoutapath.com 🐦 Twitter - https://www.twitter.com/BaurJoe​ 📸 Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/BaurJoe​ 📱 TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@baurjoe 📨 Substack - https://withoutapath.substack.com/ 🎙 My podcast Travel Tomorrow - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/travel-tomorrow/id1479462282 🎥 Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/BaurJoe​ 🎉 My Most Popular Videos 🎬 https://youtu.be/0up5EsFtlZY 🎬 https://youtu.be/h2jNtTFZxKc 🎬 https://youtu.be/HyvnmjDumpE 🎬 https://youtu.be/8F_QINYjNDU 🎬 https://youtu.be/BpFTc7dH2Ng 🎬 https://youtu.be/tJTy_fo07BM 🎬 https://youtu.be/YFhGc47cKWY 🎬 https://youtu.be/t5gVFAirryw 🎬 https://youtu.be/ymZ8wcJVG3I 🎬 https://youtu.be/JxowBLgTzQ4 🎬 https://youtu.be/RZ8P-0UVREE 🤨 WHO IS THIS GUY?
