So it's kinda the day before I upload my next video and I realized I forgot to post last week's video here. Whoops. I've been waiting a long time to throw this one together. Though I was perpetually around the corner from calamity after calamity, I really loved this section. Not only was it so …

Post-Trail Blues
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
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
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 …
Endings and Beginnings
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
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
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
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
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
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 …
