Amtrekker
Hey Team,
I’m an unemployed vagrant. All I have is a backpack full of technology, a shoestring budget and a very important list. When everything is crossed off my list I get to go home! Let me know if you want to trade one of those shoestrings for help. brett@amtrekker.com

Amtrekker Spirituality: Hey Team, My short time here in Idaho Falls has been chock full of action. In fact, yesterday was taken up by being a volunteer at a Spirituality and Wellness fair. I’ll just let you think about what that might mean for a few minutes… Done? Cause, yes. It’s probably just what you imagined. There was plenty of […]    read more
Microwave Potatoes: Hey Team, I think a little piece of me dies inside every time I find out a stereotype is true. Not that it happens all that often but when you travel as much as I do with only your preconceived notions to base your potential surroundings on…it happens. I decided that instead of trying to work on […]    read more
Where This Man Has Never Gone Before: Hey Team, Looks like I’m headed to Idaho Falls, Idaho! Why? Never been. I figured since I’m in this region anyway I should probably get to visiting some of those states I missed out on or that geocaching objective is going to be an even bigger pain later. So I’ve lined up a craigslister that’s taking me North […]    read more
Angel’s Landing: Hey Team, Okay, where did I leave off? The hike. Right. Thanks. We decided to go do the Angel’s Landing hike, which is a pretty beefy little walk for the average Joe. Shortly after we started walking Adam and Zach decided to run off ahead and ditch Jesse and I. No big deal right? But it was just a […]    read more
#45 Swamp Boat Ride With Gators!: Hey Team, Amtrekker travels to Lafayette, LA and takes part in a swamp tous sponsored by The Atchafalaya Experience! Pretty pictures and no cohesive narrative ensues! Sorry for the delay, kids. For once it wasn’t my fault. The company that usually hosts my podcasts was having issues. But now, here it is! Enjoy! Loading… Thanks! I’m done. Brett. If you like these podcast then […]    read more
Those Missing Days: Hey Team, I was hoping to have some pictures of Zion up for you guys today but it looks like it will have to wait. You’ll just have to settle for a little bit of story time instead. Jesse and I got kind of a late start heading towards Zion after double and triple checking that we […]    read more
Fishing for Donations: Hey Team, I’m finally back in the real world after an amazing trip to Zion National Park. My camera was dead while I was there but as soon as I get the pics from another camera I’ll post them here with some Zion story time. But for now, there’s something even more exciting to talk about! Guess […]    read more
A Beach By Any Other Name…Sucks: Hey Team, There’s so much I didn’t get to write about last week that I would have loved to share but thanks to a near 72-hour driving stint I feel so far behind. I guess just one quick story and then we’ll have to pretend we’re caught up. I made a pit stop in Pensacola, FL last […]    read more
#34 Scale the Lowest Highest Point in a State [podcast]: Hey Team, Here it is…let’s just pretend I cross the international dateline or something. I’d hate to have to admit I actually missed a deadline. Okay, less talk more action. I hope this one is up to par, I didn’t have a lot of time this week that wasn’t taken up by either driving or sitting on […]    read more
Delayed Gratification: Hey Team, It was bound to happen eventually. The week when travel manages to take so much time and effort that I miss out on getting the podcast up in time. Obviously I couldn’t edit while I was driving across country (but don’t think I didn’t try). And now I might have a chance if not […]    read more
