Hiking 

Trail-tested gear from socks to shelter.

Welcome to the Rogue Librarian’s trailhead — where the dirt is real, the gear gets tested, and the blisters are earned the hard way. From first-mile beginners to long-haul thru-hikers, these guides, tips, and tall tales are forged on actual trails, not in marketing meetings. If you want the truth about what works, what doesn’t, and what’ll make your hike unforgettable (in a good way), you’re in the right place.
