Growing up in the northwest in a family that camped every summer, Colleen Drake, also known as Teacup, has been hiking since she was old enough to walk, well over sixty years. Her hiking accomplishments include the Wonderland Trail around Mt. Rainier, the Washington section of the PCT, most of the Washington section of the PNT, the southern Oregon section of the PCT, the Wind River Mountains and Bighorns of Wyoming, many of the National Parks of the southwest, and all the trails of Olympic National Park.  She now makes her home in the Okanogan Highlands of northeastern Washington, where she continues to hike, write, and sip tea in beautiful places. Her trail name, Teacup, comes from the oldest piece of equipment in her pack, a green plastic teacup. which has accompanied her on all of her adventures.

Episode #111 - Colleen Drake #1 (a Trail Dames story)

Several months ago Jester reached out to some Facebook Group pages asking for Section Hikers who were hiking the Pacific Northwest Trail to be featured on the podcast. Colleen "Teacup" Drake reached out to Jester in early 2020 and they have finally connected to record.  Colleen shares with us some great stories of hiking and camping with her parents, what she does to train for Section Hikes at 71 years old, and her own Rules for Section Hiking. As you will hear, Colleen has been hiking and camping from a young age and has no intention of stopping. Thanks for listening and Happy Section Hiking!
