Episode 11: PB of Opus Orange & LA River Camp Coffee

The Almost There Adventure Podcast is a celebration of outdoor activities both local and epic. Discussing the big topics and talking to adventurers, artists, legends and activists within the outdoor community.

Way back before all of the current coronavirus festivities (remember back then?) we met up with PB of Opus Orange in his studio to talk about music and the outdoors, and share a few tunes. Next, we joined the coffee aficionados of LA River Camp Coffee to do a blind taste test of backcountry coffee.
