I just completed my solo thru-hike of the Tahoe Rim Trail and in this video I’m sharing my first impressions—what surprised me, what challenged me, and what I’d absolutely do again. I also answer questions from subscribers about gear, solo hiking, resupply, and whether the TRT lived up to the hype. If you're planning to hike the Tahoe Rim Trail or just curious what it’s like to tackle 170 miles alone, this video is for you. #TahoeRimTrail #SoloThruHike #backpacking #ThruHiking #TRT2025 ---------------------------------------------------------- P.S.
