MEET KATHLEEN

Hi, I’m Kathleen! Trail name is "Token." I'm a former PCT thru-hiker, avid Pacific Northwest day hiker, solo long-distance backpacker and "The Hungry Hiker" on YouTube. I'm passionate about hiking, backpacking and spending time in the Great Outdoors. My goal is to help you get inspired to go outside and plan your next adventure – whether it’s going on a day hike, overnight backpacking trip or thru-hiking a long distance trail for several months.
