Pacific Crest Trail | Day 3 | mile 38.8 We had a beautiful and peaceful camp within a shady pine forest along a ridge. I finished reading my book and chilled in the shade while the sun baked the earth inches away. Amos and I are already acclimating to an early morning (5am), midday siesta, and then camp before sundown. We’ll see how much hiking when do in the evening once we break into 20mile days. So far, bodies are holding up fine and no blisters (knock on wood). Flowers are popping up everywhere, too! • 📍Land of the Kumeyaay and Kwaaymii peoples

Pacific Crest Trail | Day 1 | 15.4 miles Our journey has begun!! And within the first two miles of the Trail, I faced one of my biggest fears - a big ass rattlesnake in defense mode about to strike! Yeeeehaw! 🐍 It took a while for it to clear out of the path, but I also almost stepped on a striped one and Amos scared another away, too. 🤪 This is legitimately fun people. • New blog post up - link in my bio! I just typed this from the side of a mountain - you’re welcome lol. I’m thinking about writing a post on positionality and thru-hiking the PCT. It feels very relevant as I have the privilege to walk from one border to another, seeing border patrol helicopters buzzing every thirty minutes or so above... and not feeling afraid. More soon. • 📍Land of the Kumeyaay Nation

Desert flowers in bloom! 😍 • 🌸 desert Mariposa lily 🌸 pink hedgehog cactus 🌸 prickly pears cactus 🌸 buckhorn cholla 🌸 staghorn cholla • #dirtygirlgaiters • 📍Land of the Tohono O'odham

Toto, I have a feeling we’re not in Washington anymore! • 📍Land of the Tohono O'odham

Finally fought my way into the Squamish V4s! Sent the classic problem Easy Chair and Mantis! Woohoo for rest days, and letting the skin on your fingers heal before slapping more slopers. 🙌 • 📸: @wandering_amosly • 📍: Skwxwú7mesh-ulh Temíx̱w

Good morning from the #hotelement ! I’ve got a “test” blog post (link in my bio) with life updates and links to PCT-related things. • 📸: @teenuhseeg • 📍: Skwxwú7mesh-ulh Temíx̱w
