PCT Day 35

Today the plan is to have a short hike to the base of Mt Baden Powell. I wake up kinda late ( 8am ), pack my bag. I tell everyone in the cabin that I am going to head down to the store and see if I can find a ride back to the trail... Continue Reading →

PCT Day 34

I get an early ride back up to Wrightwood to reconnect with my trail family. The last two days were great, spent time with one of my closest friends, took a hike in my old stomping grounds, but there was something missing.. the trail. As I sit in the passenger seat of the van, heading... Continue Reading →

PCT Days 32 and 33

Zeros.. Spent some time with my great friend, took a hike in my old training grounds and ate good food. Not a lot to talk about. Spent a lot of time just relaxing and enjoying the time off.

PCT Day 31

We all wake at the Silverwood campground, slowly come to life and pack up. Got a fire going and we all reheated our left over pizza up on the camp grill. I arranged to have one of my friends come and pick us up from the site. There was a lot of off trail stuff... Continue Reading →

PCT Day 26

Woke up at about 6am in the hotel room, shaved my head, took my last shower for a while and grabbed breakfast from the lobby. Everyone packed up their new food resupply, took care of backpacking chores and we all met at the rental truck around 1030. We did rent a truck for the couple... Continue Reading →

PCT Days 24, 25

Tramly decided that it would be best to rest for a few days. We all had our own hotel rooms, life is good again. Free breakfast in the morning. After eating we picked up a rental truck so we could freely move around town easily. It was trippy driving after being out on the trail... Continue Reading →
