Post-Trail Blues

On November 10, 2016November 10, 2016 By JackrabbitIn Pacific Crest Trail, Thoughts, thru-hiking2 Comments

So I basically broke while editing my next video so I figured it'd be a good time to make a post about this finally. A lot of people say the trail doesn't change you really, and I agree with that to a degree.  I'm not a different person really despite a few new small additions …

PCT Video Series: Campo to Julian

On November 9, 2016 By JackrabbitIn hiking, Pacific Crest Trail, thru-hiking, tripLeave a comment

I'm all moved in!  Kind of!  I'm currently working on my computer on the floor like some kind of savage (and I wouldn't have it any other way) but I've been able to start working on getting all of my footage thrown together.  Rather than doing a giant mega-movie I decided to release it in …

PCT 2016 Preview

On October 11, 2016 By JackrabbitIn Backpacking, hiking, Pacific Crest Trail, thru-hikingLeave a comment

I've been sitting on hundreds clips of footage for a couple months now just dying to start editing them together but my laptop's capability is limited and can only run very barebones software, so I have to wait until I can pull my PC out of storage.  I can't do that until I have somewhere …

Gear Swappage

On October 9, 2016October 9, 2016 By JackrabbitIn Backpacking, gear, hiking, thru-hikingLeave a comment

I was largely happy with the gear I took on the PCT as far as functionality goes.  Everything worked enough to get me from A to B, but I did have some issues with my setup.  I'll go over my final PCT gear list and list gripes I had with certain items once I'm settled …

Endings and Beginnings

On September 12, 2016February 18, 2020 By JackrabbitIn Backpacking, hiking, Pacific Crest Trail, pct 2016, thru-hiking, UncategorizedLeave a comment

Well, my PCT trek is over. It's taken me almost a month to come to terms with that in some shape or form, to wade through all the feelings that stem from that little fact. For almost 5 months, I lived outside. I woke up in my tent every morning, packed it up, walked, ate, …

Mammoth Lakes to Yosemite

On August 8, 2016February 18, 2020 By JackrabbitIn Backpacking, Pacific Crest Trail, pct 2016, thru-hiking, washingtonLeave a comment

Time to leave town.  I stayed in Mammoth a day longer than I planned and was eager to get back to the trail.  There's an awesome trolley system that navigates the entire town, so getting back to the ski lodge where I can take a shuttle back to Reds Meadow was easy.  I was dropped …

Bishop to Mammoth Lakes

On August 8, 2016 By JackrabbitIn Backpacking, hiking, Pacific Crest Trail, thru-hikingLeave a comment

Hey all, side note:  My podcast left off in Bishop, so this is new territory!  Ergo, it's a bit longer to cover all the fun stuff that happened.  Enjoy!   Last day in Bishop passed, I left my hotel room and walked the two miles back to the gas station in West Bishop. I grabbed …

Independence to Bishop

On August 8, 2016February 18, 2020 By JackrabbitIn Backpacking, hiking, Pacific Crest Trail, pct 2016, thru-hikingLeave a comment

Exo, MuffinMan, Smooth, and I sat around in the hostel for a lot longer than necessary agonizing over the hike back up Kearsarge Pass. We chilled for a bit, talked with some hikers for a few good hours, ate food, then hesitantly got our packs on and headed out in the evening. We got a …

Lone Pine to Independence

On August 8, 2016February 18, 2020 By JackrabbitIn Backpacking, hiking, Pacific Crest Trail, pct 2016, thru-hikingLeave a comment

Feeling better, Exo and I made our way through town and got a partial hitch to our destination. We were left at a road that went directly to Horseshoe Meadows so it would be easy to get a ride here. We sat around and threw rocks waiting along a dusty desert road and jumping up …

Kennedy Meadows to Lone Pine

On August 8, 2016February 18, 2020 By JackrabbitIn Backpacking, hiking, Pacific Crest Trail, pct 2016, thru-hikingLeave a comment

Fully geared up and rested up, I hit the trail eager to get into the Sierra.  I enjoyed Kenney Meadows, but most of my days there were spent sitting under the shade of a tree in the awful heatwave picturing what was ahead of me. I made my way along the paved road and got …

"You can't see anything from a car; you've got to get out of the goddamned contraption and walk, better yet crawl, on hands and knees, over the sandstone and through the thornbush and cactus. When traces of blood begin to mark your trail you'll begin to see something, maybe." - Edward Abbey, Desert Solitaire
