Welcome to another episode of the 10 Adventures podcast! Today, we're thrilled to host Glen Van Peski, the founder of Gossamer Gear and author of "Take Less, Do More." In our conversation, Glen shares how his passion for ultralight backpacking led to the founding of Gossamer Gear, challenging traditional notions of gear weight and functionality. His journey from crafting his own gear to running a successful company exemplifies the power of innovation and perseverance. Glen's philosophy of "take less" extends beyond gear to life itself, advocating for minimalism and gratitude. Through anecdotes and reflections, he illustrates the profound impact of simplifying one's life and embracing authentic experiences.   Visit Glen's website to learn more about his adventures and grab a copy of "Take Less, Do More" for an inspiring read!
