Marcus Holloway is the founder and editor-in-chief of Nations Trails. He lives in Asheville, North Carolina, near the Blue Ridge Mountains, and leads the site's coverage of tents, sleeping bags and pads, camp stoves, water filters, portable power for camping, and backcountry safety gear. His guides focus on the details a product listing tends to bury, such as fabric weight, waterproof ratings, sleeping pad R-values, and battery capacity, and he reviews the site's guides before they are published.
