Welcome to The Bearded Pug! I started this site so I can share my adventures with friends and family without the need for social media. I’ve found out through my travels that providing a site is far easier.
What started out as a mild curiosity of the outdoors, steamrolled into a full-on quest to be surrounded by nature. My primary goal is to section hike the entire Appalachian Trail, with no predetermined date.
No politics, no religion, no bullshit… Nothing but nature posts!
After nearly a year of prepping and getting myself mentally & physically ready, I began my journey here, at Unicoi Gap, on September 6th of 2024…
…and then I needed surgery… 🙄
