"You pack your fears." Those are the words of Stephen Virant, a trail minimalist who challenges himself by packing only what he needs. Though the current weight of his backpack (and all its contents) weighs only 7.7 lbs., he encourages you to get outside and hike your own hike! Whether you're hitting the trails to hike three miles or thirty, Stephen advises, "Just do what you can and take in the beauty that you are in".

A few of Stephen's hiking highlights:

  • Arizona Trail
  • Colorado Trail
  • John Nicholas Trail (JNT)
  • Glacier National Park
  • Pacific Crest Trail
  • Catalina Island (Great for beginners)

Recommended Apps:

  • FarOut - Navigational App
  • Lighter Pack - Tracks your gear weight
