Multi-Day R2Rs, Flatlander Training, & A Helicopter Rescue With John Sterrett

The Grand Canyon Hiker Dude Show

Logistics can be just as challenging as the hike—especially when you're talking about multi-day trips on the corridor trails. Today, we speak with Canyon vet John Sterrett, an experienced multi-day Rim-to-Rimmer with vast knowledge on what it takes to plan and train for more complex itineraries, and why he thinks those are the best way to experience the Grand Canyon. Plus a training tip from Coach Arnie on training for flatlanders.
