Hi! My name is Devin Boggs and I'm hiking the PCT this year. I'm a nuclear rocket scientist having a quarter life crisis after turning 30 and losing my job due to DOGE. I love everything outdoors from scuba diving, climbing, and backpacking. Join me as I walk nearly 10% of the world's circumference! Per Aspera Ad Astra and Happy Trails!!
