Just launched a Substack to go along with the NJ 250 Challenge series! It’s where I’ll post a written version of each episode, some behind‑the‑scenes thoughts, and a batch of photos from every hike. If you like the videos but want a slower, “journal-style” companion to them, you might enjoy following along there. I’ll be updating it as I make my way through all 25 parks.
Becoming a paid member there directly supports the time, travel, and gear that go into filming and editing these episodes, and helps keep this kind of long‑form, cinematic trail content sustainable. It also tells me there’s an audience that values deeper, more thoughtful storytelling, which lets me justify investing even more energy into future hikes, experiments, and series ideas. You'll also see each NJ 250 video earlier than the Youtube release.
We started our hike at Ongs Hat with temps in the 30s. There’s a saying: "Be Bold, Start Cold" (start hiking with fewer layers so you don't sweat). Do you follow this rule? 🧥❄️ Don't forget to join myself, Jaison and Ron tonight at 8pm ET in the Live Chat during the Premier of our Freezing Pine Barren Adventure! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U7tgH...
Let's see.....On this trip I drove 400 miles to almost fell off a ledge, get hit with hot exploding rock fragment from the campfire all while running on 3 hours of sleep. But it was a hell of a trip!
Temps will be getting lower and lower as we move further and further into Fall. Why not put this easy meal in your camp dinner plans? A lot of prep work for this can be done at home to make cooking at camp even easier!
