AI and hiking

Saison 5 · Épisode 1

vendredi 12 juillet 2024 • Durée 28:55

AI (more specifically, Generative AI) is on a sharp rise. With so many industries anxiously adapting it in order to keep up with trends in technology, the outdoors community has held back for the most part. With so much yet to be discovered from AI, it is only right that an industry that prides itself on trust and safety of its community, doesn't quickly integrate this somewhat untamed technology. But is it now time for companies like HiiKER to look to AI as an aid to helping more people get outdoors and building their confidence?

The HiiKER team discuss the rise of AI in the outdoors industry. We talk about the positive and negative implications of it if there is a wider adaption across the industry and debate the risks that come with it.

Episode 64 - The Art O'Neill Challenge - 60km ultra event in the middle of the night, in the middle of winter.

Saison 4 · Épisode 64

jeudi 21 décembre 2023 • Durée 56:40

The Art O’Neill challenge has long-been on Irish mountain-dwellers calendar.

Hikers and ultra-runners gather in the depths of winter, at night to complete a grueling 60km course

I say course, but there is actually no official route.

Not only are participants facing into the darkness,

but they also have to self-navigate over open mountains with almost no actual trails to use.

Some might say those that run the route are lunatics for running in those conditions.

The runners might be looking back at the walkers with awe as they continue in the bleak winter night.

So why are they doing this? Why Am I doing this??

Last year, I myself took part in the challenge as a runner. Unfortunately, I dropped out early…

This year, I’m going again with the sole purpose of completing it!

The more time I have spent with this challenge in my head, the more fascinated I became with the history of it.

Who was Art O’Neill?

Why is it named after him?

Normally when a race is named after a person, it usually means that person is not around anymore!

Turns out Art hasn’t been around for a couple centuries.

I’ve wanted to do a podcast about the Art O’Neill challenge for a while, but it wasn’t until I came across my guest, that I felt we could do a good job of it.

Jane Casey is a fellow hiker and content creator from Wicklow.

Over the past few months, she has been documenting her curiosity around Ireland on social media.

She offers bite-sized history lessons about things that we all walk by unknowingly everyday.

And in a country like Ireland that is steeped in History and folklore, she has plenty of subject matter to get through.

When I introduced Jane to the subject of Art O’Neill and the challenge, she was excited to be involved. While Jane is not a historian, she does her research well and came to the show prepared!

So if you’re taking part in this years challenge or you’re just a curious Casey like Jane, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.

Episode 55 - Cal Dobbs

Saison 3 · Épisode 55

jeudi 30 mars 2023 • Durée 55:36

Cal Dobbs is a trans-man athlete from America. Having already completed the coveted "Triple Crown" of thru-hiking (The Pacific Crest Trail, Appalachian Trail & Continental Divide Trail), Cal is now taking on a whole new challenge- running across the USA. Starting on the West coast in California and finishing up in Florida on the East coast, Cal is using this monumental challenge to shine a light for the Trans community in America - in particular the southern states, where Trans people face some of the harshest treatment.

Cal dials in from Arizona after just completing his run across California in roughly 12 days. Thats over 300 mile in that time!

Episode 54 - Wesley Trimble

Saison 3 · Épisode 54

vendredi 17 février 2023 • Durée 54:16

Wesley Trimble previously joined us on the show discussing his work with the American Hiking society. But Wesley's own adventure story is quite interesting. Despite being born with Cerebral Palsy, Wesley was encouraged by his parents to live a life of adventure. From an early age, he was already hiking up the highest peaks in colorado (the 14ers - mountains that reach an elevation of over 14,000ft). This lead him to completing the goal of climbing all 54 of these peaks in Colorado. As well as this amazing feat he has thru-hiked the PCT and the Colorado trail.

Now as a father, Wesley is adapting to family life and viewing and feeling the sense of adventure a different way.

On the show, we discuss Wesley's life of adventure and defying the odds as well as the triumph and tragedy surrounding his completion of climbing all 54 14ers in Colorado.

You can learn more about Wesley's life on his youtube channel - https://youtu.be/2_tNXjeKIaQ

The PATC is responsible for the maintenance of some 1200 miles of trail, including 200 miles of the Appalachian trail.
