All this week, we're hearing from people who are hiking through the Green Mountains. It's part of our series "The Long Trail: Vermont's Footpath Through History", exploring the 100th anniversary of the Green Mountain Club.
Today: a reminder of some of the challenges of being out on the trail. Whether it's for a few days, or weeks at a time, there's bound to be encounters with bugs, bad food, and rain, rain, rain.
