Today I step foot onto the Pacific Crest Trail. My friend, Groovy, is coming with me for the weekend, and my family is here to see me off. Videos will be sporadic from here on out, as my family resupplies me with the necessities, and I resupply them with videos and pics.
Here’s an update from the Pacific Crest Trail. I’m currently safe and healing. I’ll be following this up with more videos soon explaining what mistakes I made, what I’ve learned and what I’m doing to reassess, pair down and plan for the next phases.
