I am still on the trail as of June 2nd. I really havent been motivated to write anything on my blog for some reason. The last thing that I want to do honestly is write after a long day. I will update it soon! As of right now I am at mile 640 and getting... Continue Reading →
We are back on the road by 10am and heading to a spot where the PCT crosses the 2 highway about 3 miles from where we left the trail a couple days ago. When we reached the trail we all thought that we were going to do a 20 mile day. Nope.. We did 6,... Continue Reading →
It was nice not having to get up too early this morning. Forsure I wasn't the only one to fell this way as most of the camp was still setup by 9am and everyone still in their tents. Peeled my quilt off of my scab, crawled out of my tent and grabbed my food bag... Continue Reading →
An early morning starts this day. As the sun rises, we all pack up our gear, met at a table and have a very quick breakfast. Soon we will start the climb up Baden Powell. Baden Powell sits at 9,406 feet. Its the second high peak going North on the PCT, the first being San... Continue Reading →
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 →
I get an early ride back up to Wrightwood to reconnect with my trail family.

As I sit in the passenger seat of the van, heading... Continue Reading →

Today's hike is sponsored by pizza and salads. Mentally after last night being horrible, my head was only thinking about having real food. 12.6 miles, I... Continue Reading →
I woke at Deep Creek Hotsprings. Packed my bag kinda quick and then headed down to the river from where I was cowboy camping. Got to the sandy shoreline, dropped my stuff off and took a walk over to the nearest hot spring, not too far away. The water in this pool was being fed... Continue Reading →
I'm use to waking up before everyone, but this time was a little different. This time Second Chance Hiker was awake and packed before I even got up. As I packed and ate my breakfast he and I talked about the upcoming miles and that we will be hitting the 300 mile mark today. We... Continue Reading →
Packed up second and set off about 20 minutes after one of my tramly members. It was about 7 am and the morning was awesome. Pine trees, snow and a beautiful view were my office today. I'm trucking along at a decent pace and there were a few snow banks that took some time to... Continue Reading →
