Hello. Welcome to my blog about my hiking adventures!

My name is Cloud Whisperer (Erin) and I’ve created this blog to start documenting my hiking adventures. It’s been on my bucket list ever since young adulthood to Thru-Hike the AT. Military life and kids will preclude that from occurring for several more years, but there are still many more trails to hike, camp, and backpack on in the meantime. My intention is to share my adventures from planning the hike, actually hiking the hike, and afterthoughts. I am very much a novice and I’m looking forward to the challenge of “learning” how to walk and sleep in the wilderness.

Cloud Whisperer stems from the fact I’m a meteorologist by trade. I have heard several clever nicknames from: weather guesser, professional liar, black cloud, to weather warrior, but Cloud Whisperer was always my favorite moniker! I will also continue to provide in-depth weather forecasts for my adventures ;).

Hike on!!!
