3rd Attempt to Thru-hike the Pacific Crest Trail
I intended to try again in 2022, but I only made it as far as the Orlando airport. My relationship with Tom was new, and I knew I could be of great use to him setting up the shop for his new small business, Great Outdoors Solar. The trail could wait another year. I didn’t make it to the trail in 2023 either – the trail had a heavy winter, and conditions were not favorable. The trail has become so much a part of my life over the past five years, that it’s been strange not to hike it at all.
In 2024, I began again at the Southern Terminus! I’ve had many people comment that I should just hike the section that I’m missing, but come on now – that wouldn’t be a real thru-hike! As testimony to the unsurpassed beauty of the trail, I will most happily re-hike the sections I’ve done, in addition to the elusive mid-section I’m missing.
Follow along on my third thru-hike attempt!
