Think You’re Trail-Ready? Let’s Find Out.

Your Image

Every hiker has a dream. Towering pines, sunlit meadows, the crunch of gravel underfoot. Freedom. Fresh air. A trail that seems to whisper: this is where you belong.

But here’s the catch…

The trail doesn’t care about your dream.

It has a way of turning fantasy into sore feet, wrong turns, and “how did I end up rationing granola bars on day two?” moments.

That’s where The Trail Quiz comes in.

What Is The Trail Quiz?

It’s a short, witty, eye-opening quiz that reveals your Trail Readiness Score. In just a few minutes, you’ll see where you shine and where you might stumble.

Spot Your Blind Spots – Gear, food, maps, navigation: know what you’ve overlooked before it costs you.

Turn Misery into Mileage – Learn how to avoid the mistakes that send hikers home early.

Laugh While You Learn – Because hiking wisdom doesn’t have to sound like a survival manual.

Plan Your Best Hike Yet – Use your results as a roadmap for smarter, safer, and more enjoyable adventures.

Why Take the Trail Quiz?

Because every hike has two possible endings:

  1. The dream version (you standing at a lookout, grinning, humming something inspirational).
  2. The misery version (you staring at your blistered feet, wondering why you thought powdered soup was a good idea).

The Trail Quiz helps you steer toward the dream.

Who Made This Quiz?

Hi, I’m Will Swartz—long-distance hiker, author of A Walk Across Michigan, and the guy who’s made (and survived) lots of the trail mistakes you can avoid by taking the Trail Quiz.

This quiz distills thousands of miles of hard-won experience into an easy to read book of essential questions that’ll tell you more about your trail readiness than a week of Googling gear lists.

Picture This…

You lace up your boots, hoist your pack, and step onto the trail with confidence. You know you’ve got the right gear, the right plan, and the right mindset.

No guesswork. No drama. Just you, the trail, and the kind of adventure you actually enjoy.

That’s the power of The Trail Quiz.

Trail Tested Food That Keeps You Moving

Food makes or breaks a hike. Too heavy, and you’re hauling bricks. Too light, and you’re starving by day three. Too expensive, and you start wondering if freeze-dried lasagna is secretly plated with gold leaf.

Will’s Best 2 Week Menu Plan solves all of that.

You’ll get a complete, trail-tested food plan that’s:

  • Readily available – Everything can be found at normal grocery stores.

  • Lightweight & pack-friendly – No bulky cans or “mystery mush.”

  • High calorie, low density – Fuel that keeps you going without weighing you down.

  • Nutritious & tasty – Because “hiker hungry” shouldn’t mean “eating cardboard.”

  • Budget-friendly – No overpriced specialty foods required.

These are the meals I’ve used on real multi-week hikes—proven fuel for long miles and long days.
