As far as long-distance hikers go, Andrew Skurka is without a doubt amongst the very best. He has pioneered some epic trails throughout the American West, and beyond, covering a mind-blowing number of miles in the process. These days, Andrew makes his living serving as a guide, gear designer, and writer, which makes him particularly well suited to offer advice on how to travel in the backcountry. In this video, our friends at GearJunkie sit down with Skurka to ask him 21 questions, and as you can imagine there is a lot to learn here.
