Originally Published February 15, 2018 Some of are introduced to adventure sports shortly after figuring out how to walk. Some of us found ourselves eyeballs deep in our adventure passions as teenagers and, for others, it takes until their forties or later to discover the pure enjoyment we have all come to know and love no matter what age we were when it happened. And that is a great thing. It's not crucial that we all see the light so early in life. What is important is that we eventually find ourselves living and dreaming as adventurers. Scott Newman spends time with Curt re-living his discovery and a new passion for hiking and backpacking on today's show. Can you relate to Scott's story? If so, we would love to hear your story! www.svencansee.com Facebook: @SvenCanSee Twitter: @svencansee Instagram: @svencansee Athletic Brewing Company is a pioneer in craft non-alcoholic beer.
