I’ve postponed this one quite a bit. This is the last post of my journey on the PCT. The post I wish I’d never have to write. To top it off, I managed to completely delete all the pictures of Washington I took with my camera. Luckily I still have a few on my phone. I… Read More

Feeling pretty down in Mammoth, I didn’t know what to do. Luckily things have a strange way of working out. Rodeo showed up and made my life a lot better. He lent me money and invited me to stay in a room that he had gotten with Curry and Lieutenant Dan, the people he was… Read More

I woke up in the Truckee park on the fourth of September, walked around aimlessly for a while. My heart sank once I looked at my bank account. All my money was gone. Someone had gotten ahold of my card information. Blocking my card, with only $50 in cash I left Truckee and picked the… Read More

If you’ve been following my hike, you know that I’ve had to skip past parts. Well, the time has come to hike the 350 or so miles that I skipped in California. Sunrise over the Truckee river. When I got to Skykomish, I hitched into Seattle and flew down to Reno. Well in Reno it… Read More

Exiting the Goat Rocks, we soon arrived at White Pass. A gas station without much, but a lot of what you need. We picked up resupply boxes and stayed the night. What a hiker lunch break looks like. As I wrote in a previous post, we had to turn around due to a forest fire.… Read More

Entering into Washington was a surreal feeling. As if achieving something you never knew if you would. I’ve also been sure all this time that it’d be my favorite state. It’s well on it’s way being just that. One of the first notable things I saw in Washington. Is this a sign? It’s supposed to… Read More

In Oregon me and Simba had to skip about 45 miles due to forest fires. That was demoralizing, but we had heard that Oregon is known for its fires. What we didn’t know is that Washington can burn as well. Now a part of Washington is closed because of a recent fire. And we thought… Read More

So, the fires in Oregon forced us to get a ride to Olallie Lake. Well there, me and Simba rented a row boat and went out on the lake for sunrise. Some lovely people had arranged a trail magic operation, with everything you could imagine. That definitely set us back. Simba the fisherman. The next… Read More

From Crater Lake, the trail continued once again, as it does. Further up in Oregon, the forest got thicker. It felt older, had more personality. Or as I like to call it, more forestality. The old PCT marker being eaten. Before getting to the Shelter Cove Resort, there is an alternate trail that I took.… Read More
