Magic in the Mountains

After my thru hike of the Appalachian Trail in 2021, I began dabbling as a freelance writer. Exposure as a freelancer ushered in opportunities to review hiking and backpacking gear. As someone with over 5,000 miles of experience, I take pride in thoroughly testing products and offering honest opinions to help others in their gear selection process. Below are my online gear reviews to date. If you are a gear company interested in a review, please feel free to reach out to me!
