Despite falling in the river 🫣 - Day 2 was my fav because…
1. We reached the
#PCT & JMT! 🎉 If you’re new here—we’re on the hunt to experience much of the 2,800 mile ‘Pacific Crest Trail’ - which winds from the border of Mexico to Canada 🇨🇦. BUT, we’re doing it in squirrel size chunks, over yearsssss.
2. We reached Rae Lakes and… pictures don’t do it justice!
3. SNACK were 10/10: we had grabbed fillosfoods’ ‘Walking Tamales’ at a highlander.usa trek — and not only have they held up, they are DELICIOUS.
…almost as good as our current favorite trail snack, the_onlybean — they’re suoer lightweight, super satisfying & high protein. (Siracha flavor’s soooo tasty).
MY FAV PART: meeting and chatting with ‘real’ PCT hikers. I was fan girling and Evan had to limit my Q’s 😆. Talk about inspiring — we met all ages and abilities, even an 80-year old taking it slow, knocking off 200+ miles a year—then returning the next year, right where he left off.
Inspiring, right?? 🥹
