These guys are awesome! They alert you of which trails to avoid or to be cautious of so that you don’t get mauled by mountain lions in NYS.
Thanks again for the Epic podcast. Love the banter, love the intro, love the humor and always excellent guests. Cheers
I moved back to the Hudson Valley this summer after being away for about 15years, with only occasional visits.
