Episode #121 - Dave Paumen (CBiscuit)

Mighty Blue On The Appalachian Trail: The Ultimate Mid-Life Crisis · Dec 6, 2018 · 1h 5m

I interviewed Dave Paumen at 5:30 in the morning as he was about to enter the 100 Mile Wilderness. I was struck by his calm intelligence and his story. A Vietnam Veteran, he had demonstrated a cold-eyed determination in his life and brought that personality trait to the trail. He had been injured in his first attempt in 2017 but returned to complete his hike this year.

Dave's solid common sense shines through in both the interview and his journals of the two, linked hikes.
