Do you love hiking? Do you get a thrill when you learn something new? Well, then you are in the right place. This is Trail Scholar- a blog that aims to explore the science behind natural places.
This is not your usual hiking blog. Most of the hikes I write about are taken with experts in a field of scientific study. I ask them questions during the hike. Then share what I learn with you. Check out recent hikes with a scientist here.
I also write about my own adventures in hiking and learning with posts on trail curiosities. Whether it be a unique rock formation, a rare plant, or a strange sound I see/hear on the trail, I share my scientific take on what I found.
