Guide, Owner, & Founder of Redline Guiding: Mike Cherim
Paul and Nick get the opportunity to sit down with Mike Cherim, a modern-day "Renaissance man" who has been hiking and climbing since tackling the "Rock Pile" at the young age of four! Mike is the owner and founder of Redline Guiding up in Intervale, New Hampshire, as well as an instructor, guide, and even a Justice of the Peace!
Paul tackles Adams and Madison and tries not to get blown away on a Spring-like day in the Northern Presidentials, Nick tackles repeat agents on the mighty 450' Diamond Hill in Cumberland while everyone is getting up North, stays local hiking with the family, and attempts a picnic in Newport despite the chilly temps, and the boys have a great chat with Mike Cherim of Redline Guiding! They discuss Mike's past endeavors; including hiking Mount Washington as a young boy, climbing Mount Fuji in Japan, Mount Rainier out West, everything he's done at "home" in the Whites and in the Northeast, how and why he started the awesome Redline Guiding guide company in the Whites, and how Redline Guiding can help you hike your lists, learn how to climb, and even get you married in mountainous location on this don't-forget-to-get-your-marriage-license-for-your-wedding-day-or-it-might-be-awkward-episode of the PUDs Podcast!
