Thanks for the videos. I'll be 6o years old this year. I'm trying to free myself from the remaining obligations that I'm tied in. Someday I will be on PCT and hopefully will be able to complete it. Good luck to you.....stay healthy and safe.
Greetings from Japan, Condor! So good to see you on trail again. Wonderful job so far! Great "yard sale" before Mt. Laguna ... 😅 Your Coos Coos (sp??) and chicken sounds fantastic, although being from Japan, your reference to gold fish raised my eyebrows at first ... 😮 ... but then on more careful reflection I realized what you were talking about ... 😂 Looking forward to your next video! Be safe; keep at it!
So awesome to see that you’re on the trail again. I’m wishing you all the luck in the world. I’m extremely envious of your adventures. Be safe. John G. Rachal
Happy to see you’re taking care of yourself and listening to your body’s needs. The scenery is breathtaking and very grateful you’re sharing it with us. Carry on, you’re doing fantastic. The only negative is when the video ends. 🙏🏻🥰
Following your journey again this year and enjoying it. You are doing great. I would like to know just when you started your hike this year. Thanks and stay safe. Best to you, Bill.
Beautiful hike so far, thanks for posting. Yeah, I hear you about the motel cost. When my wife and I road trip, we usually pay around $100 per night at Holiday Inn Express or Hampton Inn. Now it's closer to $200. Some of the travel forums say that insurance cost have really gone up because building materials have gone up so much (most insurance policies are full replacement). Inflation!
Great job! Good attitude and taking care of yourself. Ugg! Mt. Laguna lodge! I’d rather climb out of Hauser creek than stay at that place. Thanks for taking us along!
I stopped using down many years ago. All polyester stuff now and it’s worked out better. Trail looks great this year. Fingers crossed for the Sierra. 🌿 🏔️
Congrats on 50 miles. Glad you got to have a warm bed and dry completely out. Prices of hotels have gone up so much since Covid. It’s crazy how much they have increased the costs. And weekends and high tourist season always makes things pricier. Last time I stayed in idyllwild it wasn’t bad for a nice cabin. That as a smidge over year ago October 2021. Idyllwild is a great place to zero Julian is a great zero spot. Enjoy it! 😊
Definitely look strong and always good to start out slow. Love that last camp spot. Thinking of you as I make my drive. Delayed it for two days- a friends bday is tomorrow, so will make my long drive in a day and a half.
Thank you for sharing your hike. I'm really enjoying the flowers, birds and your description of all the change from previous years.
Yay, almost 60miles. Your doing amazing. Loving the journey so far.

Your doing so good!!!!
What a cool tent spot amongst the boulders. I was up at 63.6 that night at a water source with about a dozen others. You were quickly catching me! 😁🌻💛
Beautiful days. Are you stretching those hips? Wow. 50 miles. You're doing amazing. Keep trekking. 😀
Lots of stretching, everything! 💪💕
I have called twice from the trail to get a room for the night in Laguna. Worked both times. Slow and steady wins the day.

Listen to the body for sure.

It seems that you are on track, just don't push yourself to hard, from what I hear the snow melts and water is high. I know you are at a good speed 😊

Lady in Purple, Great to see you hard at it. You’re making good headway. Seems you are not tense and just taking your time. How’s the knees?
Good!! 💜
The Step Pause strategy got me up a lot of tough slopes. I may be slow and cautious, but I always get it done.
Same 100%!! I'm always getting passed on the climbs, but I can pace pretty fast otherwise and I can go the distance of the youngins' 😄
@ 22:22 . . . evidence that there were a LOT of trees here in the not too distant past that never recovered from wildfires.
