Episode 58: Leor Pantilat - He won 22 races in a row then quit to do FKTs - what's he doing now?

Leor won 36 of the 42 races he entered, then in 2013 stopped racing to do FKTs.  He held the FKT on the John Muir Trail AND the High Sierra Trail at the same time - then stopped doing FKTs too!  What is his new passion?

"Big Sur is just as wild as the High Sierra - there are places no one has ever seen".

"I've cataloged 157 waterfalls - some I call "FKS's" - First Known Sighting!"

Description

The Birkental lies exactly between the Tannheimer valley and the Lechtal. Starting point is the small town of Gaicht am Gaichtpass. About the footpath it goes to Rauth and from there up to the highest point, the Leilachspitze (2,274m). The crack tip shortly before may be taken. From there on the eastern and western Krottenkopf over on the Lachenspitze (2.126m). Descend via the trail to the northeast towards Schochenspitze. Follow the main hiking trail to the left and after the Sulzspitze partly trailless towards Litnisschrofen (2.068m).
