Episode 34 is here and we are pumped to bring you a great chat with experienced hiker, and Great Colorado Route creator and first sender, Donovan "Iceman" Rice.
We chat with Donovan about his pre-GCR trail experience, why he thought Colorado needed another route for people to take one, and how his maiden voyage on his new route shook out when he hit the trail.

Before the interview starts Nick and Steven recap Steven's recent race at the Canyon de Chelly 55k, Nick's most recent application into the dog bite club, and lots of things going on in the world of ultra and trail running.
