Thru-hiking triple crown: Nic's rebirth after quitting his 9-5 job on doctor's orders to hike the Appalachian Trail, completing the AT and Continental Divide Trail, gearing up for the Pacific Crest Trail, and embracing the kilt as a symbol of freedom, hope, and warmth.
Thru-hiking triple crown: Nic's journey from quitting his 9-5 job on doctor's orders to thru-hike the Appalachian Trail for rebirth, completing the AT and Continental Divide Trail, and gearing up for the Pacific Crest Trail, all while embracing the kilt as a symbol of freedom, hope, and warmth.
Many of us reminisce or daydream of times thru-hiking a spectacular trail. Not as many of us have a kilt on during that daydream. For Nic, the kilt is a beacon of freedom, hope and warmth (you’ll have to listen to learn more about that). 
After years of living the old 9-5 story, Nic was tired of the way life was going. He decided, on doctors orders, to quit his job and thru-hike the Appalachian Trail to be “reborn” into a life he was more excited about. 
He has now completed the AT, the Continental Divide Trail and Pacific Crest Trail. We caught up with Nic before his PCT hike.
