Tahoe Rim Trail Q & A Part 2: LOGISTICS, PLANNING, and SAFETY

Earlier this month my friend Krissy and I set out for a thru-hike of the Tahoe Rim Trail- A 170-mile trail that loops around the lake. After posting about our 8.5-day adventure here and on IG, I’ve gotten a ton of questions so this video covers the second half of everything you wanted to know related to logistics, planning, and safety.
