Thank you for sharing the adventure and the lessons learned along the way -- very informative and helpful. Glad you all came out of it OK. Be safe; keep at it!
My legs hurt just watching you. We appreciate all the hard work so we can see the views. Out of respect, I'm not sitting on my couch. 😂 Seriously, be careful out there!
You guys ROCK!! Toughest past couple of days and you're still able to find a smile and laugh at your situation!! Way to go. I must share one safety tip with you all. When cooking while at a picnic table, don't boil your water in top. Especially while sitting by the stoves. It's happens too many times that the table gets bumped and the boiling water spills on you, leaving very unpleasant burns. Cook on the ground, eat on the table. 👍
Practice practice practice with your axes. Also watch for snow bridges in your snow travels. I cried so many times through this section last year from mental exhaustion. I’ve been looking for a channel to follow this year….found it.
I drive by these mountains down in the valley all the time when they are snow capped and I’ve always wondered what it was like up there when it snows. lol, you really are doing the hard work while I’m being lazy!
Thanks for bringing us those beautiful views, we do appreciate the effort you are putting in to capture them. Glad you did not get hurt when you fell. Keep up the good work and glad you are sticking together through this tough-going section. Hike~~On~~>
That Mountain(s) was the San Bernardino Range and San Gorgonio on the right of the shot. San G. is the highest point in SoCal at 11,503. But I'm sure you already know you don't go over it. Just around it. Snow travel is tough and usually underestimated. Great job getting through Fuller Ridge. Good thing for you the tree jumped out and saved you! ;P
Best to get up super early and do as much walking on frozen, grippy, crispy snow as possible before the sun hits it and warms it up into slushy, post-holing, slippery stuff. Stay safe. Have fun.
Your stories of pioneering through that section are going to be with you for a long time, not so for the lot who took the easy way! Good on all of you Chap!
I’ve been up there twice and have some serious respect for that mountain. I’ve never done the trail that you’re currently taking so I don’t have a good sense of the sketchy parts that are a part of the PCT, and I’ve never walked Fuller Ridge. I’m glad everyone ended up safe. A fall like that would have had me completely rattled without my ice axe in hand. It’s a very helpless feeling and that mountain has some serious drop offs.
Well done, i'm looking forward to the Sierra. Conditions are pretty much like last year, i recommend to watch also 'The long way home' from Titouan Le Roux.
Glad yall made it through that tough area of San Jacinto. BTW: That snow capped mountain "Mount San Gorgonio" is pronounced as "Mount San Gor-GO-nee-oh."
So awesome watching you all, good practice for the sierras if there's snow when you get there! Not trying be annoying commenter lol, im sure you figured out leaving earlier in the snow is better when its still frozen😊 anyways seriously loving this journey!!!
That's pretty typical of the PCT here right now at 4,000' and we've got over 10 feet of snowpack at Timberline Lodge at 6,000', but that will likely be all gone by the time you reach here in mid-July. Good to see you all traveling safely and enjoying your Type 2 fun!
must admit, been feeling kinda envious and wanting to do the PCT again since watching yours and Roadrunners vlogs.....but I woke up from that dream today with the reminder of how much the snow traversing broke my body! Have fun, hard days make the best memories and you guys are crushing it!
Good on you all for doing that amazing section. Great lessons learned that will serve you well and that those who skipped will have to learn in even more challenging areas to come. Both times I went thru in heavy snow years, it was a standout section in challenge and reward.
Thanks for all your hard work showing us the trail conditions. Don’t feel bad about falling as I fell there one summer when there was no snow when I stepped aside to let some horses go by. Fortunately, I was able to limp back down San Jacinto very slowly with my bf carrying my 40 lb. pack. BTW, loved FireBall’s ⛄️
San Jacinto trail report is the best and most detailed daily account of any section of the PCT. If you read the website, you would have know about every mile of snow conditions in the region. Not being critical.. just commenting so others might see and use the report.
Oh my gosh - I’m seriously so glad you’re ok. This stuff is scary scary! Thanks for the videos. Kudos to you guys! Not sure that I wouldn’t have skipped/gone around this 50 miles. Hopefully melted significantly by the time we get there!!
I'm glad you didn't die. But next time you go sliding down a mountain, make sure Roadrunner has her camera going. It would make some compelling TV 😉 Seriously, I'm glad you didn't die and that you were not injured.
Well this is the first video I haven’t felt jealousy!! I will just hear in my spinning office chair and wiggle my toes in my sandals!!! 😂. Glad you made it down somewhat unfazed!
Dude. Be careful out there. You should be wearing your spikes and carrying your ice axe no matter if the snow looks terrible or doable. Stay safe. Let me repeat myself for the 50th time…it’s much worse in the Sierras, even in June and July. You need to practice safe snow hiking.
Yep - get used to hiking with the axe I think everyone who has hiked in alpine conditions has had a similar scare Let me tell you about whitney someday ...
Good job guys. At above 6000ft the altitude effect comes into play. Also, your toes must be frozen and numb and that can't be good for sensitivity and traction coordination. Keep on.
What's wrong with you understand if you do some research you can find out what's going on with the trail...seriously 3 feet of snow and you didn't know see you on the missing enigma...another hiking liability
Thank you for the views, while sitting on my couch.😊
Nice group shots at the end. Yes, do not get complacent.
Thank you for sharing the adventure and the lessons learned along the way -- very informative and helpful. Glad you all came out of it OK.
Be safe; keep at it!
You guys are amazing...hang in there...great pre sierra experience...it will server you well later...

Thank you for the encouragement and following along!
So glad you didn’t get hurt!! How scary!! Keep on living your dream! Love you! Miss you!
Thanks, Stacey! Love ya!
It was good seeing you guys again! Glad you all made it through relatively unscathed 😃
Is this Canada Craig?!?
@@lilchaphikes It is!
@@vintagevagabondveganI hope you’re planning a new adventure!
@@lilchaphikes Definitely! East Coast Trail in Newfoundland this summer and Camino Frances in Spain this fall.
I drive by these mountains down in the valley all the time when they are snow capped and I’ve always wondered what it was like up there when it snows.

Hard hiking but beautiful views. Thanks for sharing.

I’m thankful that you and Fireball did get hurt on your falls. I appreciate the beautiful views on behalf of your hard work.
I vicariously travel with you! Wake up to your videos each morning. Absolutely love the beautiful views! Many thanks for taking this adventure.
Thanks for coming along!!!
Snow capped mountain peaks in front of you is San Gorgonio.

I think when it's over that you will all be proud that you didn't take the easy way out. #purist

Congrats! So glad everyone is safe. Looking forward to seeing you apply this experience in the Sierra.
Beautiful views but yikes that would be scary. I'm glad you didn't get hurt on your fall
Beautiful views, thank you for sharing!!!
Wow! Amazing views - thank you for sharing! All of you continue to stay safe!

Read and watched San Jacinto Jon daily. . .
Now you understand why people leap frog dangerous sections until they melt.. Glad you survived to hike another day.
Hopefully we can avoid any leapfrogging!
Oh my gosh - I’m seriously so glad you’re ok. This stuff is scary scary! Thanks for the videos. Kudos to you guys! Not sure that I wouldn’t have skipped/gone around this 50 miles. Hopefully melted significantly by the time we get there!!
Should be much better conditions by the time you guys get here!
So frightening! And I'm so glad you are safe.
I'm glad you didn't die. But next time you go sliding down a mountain, make sure Roadrunner has her camera going. It would make some compelling TV 😉
Seriously, I'm glad you didn't die and that you were not injured.
I wish we got the footage!?!?
Well this is the first video I haven’t felt jealousy!! I will just hear in my spinning office chair and wiggle my toes in my sandals!!! 😂. Glad you made it down somewhat unfazed!

Every day I wake up I ask myself how I got there.
No clear answer manifests.
San Gorgonio is the highest mountain in Southern California.
