Nostalgia Already

It’s been less than a month since I rejoined civilization after completing my thru-hike of the PCT this year. It’s warmer here, but life is a lot more predictable. Security is nice but I already miss the adventure of this trail more than I thought I would. I’ve already forgotten the hardship, and instead I just remember how much I miss all my friends, all the mountains, all the freedom. Here’s a short compilation of all the videos I took at completely random times throughout my hike.

    Was that you jumping into Little Crater Lake at the 46s mark? If so, I’m fairly certain you’re now legally a popsicle.

      Hah! It was! It took me six tries to be brave enough to do it. Worth it for sure.
