🎙️ Season 12 kicks off with a story that spans deserts, snowfields, and summits. 🥾✨

Meet Jackson—trail name Gospel—who just finished his PCT thru-hike this summer. From battling early Sierra snow to chasing Northern Washington sunsets, Jackson shares how the trail tested his mind more than his body, the faith that carried him through, and why sunrise on Mount Whitney is worth every frozen step. 🌄

This conversation is raw, inspiring, and the perfect way to launch a new season of Hikes & Mics. Don’t miss it!
