A Cut-In-Half E-Bike Makes A Dope Backcountry Hauler, As Well As Keeping a Family Hiking Together

Necessity is the mother of invention, sure, but a parent's love and want for their child to be happy is far more motivating. That's the case with Huckleberry Hiking and its founder, LJ Wilde, who wanted more for his daughter, who lives with a rare disability and subsequently built a hiking platform that not only could carry her into the backcountry on family treks but also produced something that hunters will be keen to try.

Why? Because what started as the Cascade Tandem Hiking Cart for his daughter has evolved, or maybe splintered off is a better phrase, into the RuckTruck, which basically amounts to a cut-in-half e-bike that straps to your back like a backpack, and helps you carry out even the largest of loads and into the gnarliest of places.
