Brittney Heath

My name is Brittney and I will be hiking the Pacific Crest Trail in 2018. This will be my 1st thru-hike. I was born and raised in Texas but since then have moved a lot for my old job as a Park Ranger. During my five years as a ranger I traveled and worked in many different National Parks in California, Utah, and Alaska. While I no longer am a ranger I still am passionate about protecting theses beautiful wild places and promoting stewardship and Leave No Trace values. Hiking the PCT has been something I've wanted to do for years. After losing my job this last summer I decided that this is my opportunity to do it. So this May, as I turn 30, I will be beginning the journey of a life time. Feel free to also check out my Youtube Channel, Wandering Brittney. Thanks
