Originally aired March 1, 2021.Wesley was born with a mild form of cerebral palsy which affects his fine motor skills on the right side of his body. The only problem? He finds peace and joy climbing mountains and hiking trails in places that folks with cerebral palsy “aren’t supposed to go”. He couldn’t let that stop him. His love for the outdoors has led him to climb every mountain in Colorado over 14,000 ft (54 of them), thru-hike the Pacific Crest Trail (2,653 miles) from Mexico to Canada, and has ultimately led to a career in the outdoors.To learn more about Welsey and to watch his films:Film: Within WeaknessInstagram: @wesleytrimbleAmerican Hiking SocietyOur Sponsors:* Check out Shopify and use my code asp for a great deal: https://www.shopify.com/* Check out Tecovas and use my code ADVENTURE for a great deal: http://www.tecovas.com* Check out The Wonderful Company: https://www.wonderfulpistachios.com/* Listen to NerdWallet’s Smart Money podcast on your favorite podcast app. “Future You” will thank you.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/adventure-sports-podcast/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
