"This is the part that I never anticipated: the boots have taken on a life of their own. They've just worked magic with people," says M'Lynn. "I'd like to see Paul's boots continue to be an inspiration, continue to get people off the couch and out into the fresh air and paying attention to what they're doing with their lives." Paul's boots have now covered all 2,189-miles of the AT. All three pairs have summited Katahdin. Now, we've got quite the collection of size 13 hiking boots at the office. And we agree with M'Lynn: we think it would be a shame to let them sit in the corner and collect dust. For our third and final episode on the Paul's Boots project, we bring you the story of thru-hiker Alex Newlon, who carried a pair of boots the entire length of the AT, and we have one last ask for you: Where do these boots go next?

The Dirtbag Diaries : What's Next?
This is what adventure sounds like. As long as we’ve climbed, skied, hiked, boated or traveled, we’ve been telling stories. Duct Tape Then Beer present the sometimes serious, often humorous stories about the people who call the outdoors their home. What began as a solitary experiment by writer Fitz Cahall, has evolved into collaboration between writers and listeners to produce the type of stories that rarely find homes in the glossy pages of magazines.
