By Wolf Richter for WOLF STREET.
I’m currently in Europe and heading out for a stage hike in the Alps with my brother. If everything works as planned, and neither fate nor karma get out of control, I should be back in the corner office of the Wolf Street Media Mogul Empire by July 1.
Throughout our hike, I will have sporadic access to the internet in the evening and morning local time, when I will be checking on the comments, and if jetlag turns me into a night owl, I might write an article or two. So don’t be totally shocked when an article pops out of nowhere.
This is the first time I’m actually (mostly) taking off in the 14 years since I’ve had WOLF STREET and the predecessor website with the ghastly name. I have the worst-ever boss, but after months of idle threats, inept cajoling, and useless brown-nosing, I finally got him to relent and give me a few days off.
My brother and I are no longer the youngest dudes. We used to hike together but haven’t done so in 30 years. So now is the time. We’ll start at the edge of Germany and head into the Austrian part of the Alps. Wishing you all the best till then.

Enjoy your trip, I’m jealous
You’re in the part of the world I love most. Which towns will you be hiking near?
Home is here in TN, but I’m there 3-4 times a year.
Have a few biers for me!
HEY – YOU GET AT LEAST TEN THUMBS UP FOR YOUR LONG DESERVED ADVENTURES. (Sometimes i am all thumbs and it seems to happen more and more as the years pass.) I, OF COURSE AM JEALOUS.
Enjoy! We want photos of you in Lederhosen, women in dirndls with edelweiss in their hair, and cow wearing a bell. Bonus points of an audio of you yodeling.
Awesome! Have a wonderful time!
Nice. Happy Trails!
Have a great trip! I just finished 12 days in Tokyo, Kyoto, and Osaka and loved it.
Hope your brother took CPR training :)
Have a great trip/hike!
Thank you again for your great articles!
Enjoy your time with your brother. Watch out for bears!
