Emily Pennington - Feral and Fearless Across Every U.S. National Park
In this episode, Jen and Dyana chat with Emily Pennington — journalist, adventure writer, and photographer — who’s made a name for herself covering the outdoors, national parks, adventure travel, and wellness. Emily has visited every U.S. national park and chronicled her journey in her memoir Feral: Losing Myself and Finding My Way in America’s National Parks. They dive into her most memorable park experiences, why solo adventuring shaped her, and how it eventually inspired her to seek out more shared adventures. A seasoned contributor to Outside magazine, Emily’s work has also appeared in The New York Times, The Guardian, Condé Nast Traveler, Lonely Planet, REI Journal, and Backpacker.Follow Emily on Instagram @brazenbackpackerCheck out her book - Feral: Losing Myself and Finding My Way in America’s National ParksNOTABLE TIMESTAMPS6:56 Welcome Emily Pennington13:55 Motivation & planning year long National Park trip25:48 Writing Feral: Losing Myself and Finding My Way in America’s National Parks33:19 Emily's most surprising & favorite National Park41:46 Relationship with discomfort48:39 Sharing adventures with others57:25 Overtourism & challenges facing public landsSend us a textWhere to find and support Bush & Banter: Follow Bush & Banter on Instagram: @bushandbanter Visit Bush & Banter's website: www.bushandbanter.com Join Bush & Banter's Patreon community: patreon.com/bushandbanter E-mail Bush & Banter:
