I am a backpacker at heart but not able to get out much due to living in the heart of flatlands, Iowa. There are a few places to go backpacking around Iowa, but nothing compares to getting out into in the beautiful land the rest of the mountainous world has to offer. Like most of you, I have a fulltime job and limited PTO. With my free time consisting of doing research on backpacking, watching people backpack online or just planning out my next trip, I decided why not also write about it. So, I started TrailheadTrials.com, because nothing beats learning from other's trials and tribulations!
