The Trailside Prophet/A Trail Reborn

  • Summary

  • In this episode of False Summit: Tales, Trails, and Epic Fails, Octavia and Em take you deep into the wilderness with two unforgettable stories:

    First up, The Trailside Prophet—a chance encounter with a weight-lifting, guilt-busting, microbe-denying hiker. Is he an enlightened sage or just another trail oddity? Either way, he’ll make you think twice about the strangers you meet on the trail.

    Then, from our listener Matt Busse (@matturalresource), comes A Trail Reborn. Follow the transformation of a forgotten path in Kent, Connecticut, and discover how a small-town community turned neglect into triumph—one step and one flag-planting moment at a time.

    🎵 Stick around for Trailmix, where Em brings you the perfect hiking soundtrack, including tracks from Deepend, Miguel, and a dreamy Bob Marley remix.

    💡 Plus, some quick-and-easy tips to up your wilderness photography game and capture those epic trail moments like a pro.
