Climate change is a buzz word, but how does and could it affect a hiker's trek? Truth be told, there are a lot of ways. In this episode Yeti sits down with Charlotte Royal (lead editor for the podcast) and covers a recap of global warming, who says things are heating up, and how this can all affect the trails and hikes that we love so much. We cover a LOT of ground in this one, so buckle up and put on your thinking caps.
