​Why Do This?

• ​Make the kind of connections that only happen on adventures

• ​Let nature strip away the noise

• ​Walk away lighter, clearer, and more fired up about what’s next

​Logistics + Support

• ​Guided by Ret Taylor— PEF member, R3 Method founder, and adventurer

• ​Pre-hike checklist, gear guide, and maybe a playlist that slaps 

• ​Snacks + a celebratory drink (or two) that will taste like the best thing you’ve ever had

• ​Just bring your trail shoes, water, snacks, a few layers, and a willingness to go deep
