Chris Carter likes to hike - a lot! He's one of just a few that has completed the Triple Crown. That is the Appalachian Trail at 2200 miles the Pacific Crest Trail at 2650 miles and the Continental Divide Trail at 3000 miles - almost 8000 miles total between the 3 trails.
This conversation between him and Brad Bloom, Publisher of Shout! OUTDOOR LIFESTYLE MAGAZINE was shot on location atop Lookout Mountain in the Chattanooga, Tennessee area near Covenant College.
This video is included in the full feature story My 7940 Mile Hike.

Chris shares the following on his YouTube chanel:
Heyo! I'm an American artist/backpacker/traveler who grew up in beautiful Kenya, East Africa. I love writing, filming, drawing, running, climbing… basically anything that uses the right side of my brain and gets me outside. I've been exploring all over the globe for decades—from the dusty African savanna to rugged Himalayan peaks—and share travel tips and tricks gleaned from my time on the road, including the gear to get you there and back in one piece.
When I'm not romping through the woods or hopping planes, I work as a professional adventure journalist, photographer, and gear tester for AllGear Digital—a leading voice for breaking news, product reviews, and travel guides in the outdoor industry. I'm currently a Senior Editor and Writer on the leadership team at Switchback Travel, and a contributor to GearJunkie and other prominent online publications. For media inquiries or to send testing samples, fire me a message at ccarter@allgeardigital.com. Live wild!
