Not particularly helpful. Bad lighting, bad video quality, bad sound quality and perhaps bad advice.

Jully 4th, of course you need to 0. When in Rome.... 🤣

I knew you would like Sierra City and you said there was nothing there and it was not worth the stop a couple of videos ago.The red moose is the old hiker hangout it always had thirty or forty hikers and the owners where amazing.

Instead of sending those items home, why don't you bounce box it forward?

👍

Good decision to avoid crowds. Have you been checked for diabetes? It surprised me when I was diagnosed. 6 years later, I'm doing better. Get checked. I still believe in having a map and compass in case the batteries die. If you carry a 24 ounce metal pot, you can still heat up you food over a small fire or heat tablets or tealight candles. Happy Trails. And I roll. Good Luck, Rick

Those mosquitoes followed you from the last camp site. 😅

Really enjoyed the drone footage on El Camino but I did expect that it would be gone on the PCT. Less weight the better, especially when you go back to the Sierras

Sierra City is a nice little town and I'm glad you got a room to bad the lodge that hikers camped at is gone the only thing they charged you for food and beer.

A base weight of 6 pounds would be amazing. This is a very scenic part of the trail. I love the bridges.

Very nice video! I also love the smell of pine trees ❤ Which quilt do you currently have with you? The one you are planning on sending home.. I agree with sending home the cooking system and sticking to cold soaks. Good thinking.

Thanks for sharing, I'm walking the pct next year. I did get the app and am curious how people read the comments on FarOut. :)

Great day. Nice you showed the farout app for the future hikers . It really wasn't that long ago in the scheme of things , that cell phones and apps like these were non existent . Can you imagine having to rely on trail signs and paper maps and a compass ? I do wonder if there use to be more blazes back then . Thanks ror sharing. Stay safe and hydrated❤️🇨🇦

This was helpful and beautifully presented! 👏👏

Thanks for the info on FarOut App. In Australia there are around 7 -9 trails on Far Out, so I hadn't checked it out, but will do now you've shown how much info is available. I use Avenza App withTopographic maps, but not as much info as Far Out. Hope you're feeling better soon.

I have no problem with cold food. I rarely warm leftovers. And, if you want something warm, and there isn’t a burn ban, make a small fire than can be stomped out. Great share. Take care.

Thats a great app to have. Go groceries 😊 and yes im still here enjoying your videos

So glad you got some hiking in! And personally (I'm sure you've already mailed it back) but I would keep the stove..there will be times you'll want something warm at night or in the morning. Only a pound 😀 Zman

I kept hearing people talk about farout but this is the 1st time anyone I've watched has showed it. Thanks!

Sierra city is not a town there used to be a lodge that the owners turned over to hikers but I think they are gone. It used to be a fun stop but you will probably have to camp.

I guess the mosquitos are a good incentive to run up hill 😅 lol

Beautiful views. Farout is certainly a great tool for the trail. Happy trails.🤘🏻🥾⛰️

Thank you, very nice vid again and great views from up there 👍 Mule ears are also the name of these yellow flowers with the leaves that have a shape like err, mule ears 🤭

Lovely section my friend 👏👏

This was a very interesting section. That was the nicest campsite so far, tucked away in some trees. The tunnels under I-80 were amazing.

Found your channel through Roadrunner. She is farther north on the PCT. Your gradual, laid back approach & many views are well appreciated.

I believe the small structure were outhouses . The higher one and the raised front door on hut are to accommodate for the snow levels. . The rock is volcanic . It is a magical place . ❤️ Thank you for sharing this beautiful day❤️🇨🇦

The rocks you saw are all volcanics. I think you mentioned Andesite Peak or so, and andesite is a type of volcanic rock. Also the funny dark outcrop you saw by the trail seems to be a remain of maybe a pyroclastic flow, I would need more footage to make sure 🤓 This is indeed a beautiful area and very interesting geologically speaking! Thanks for sharing 👍💟

That camping spot right outside of town was a nice one.

The hut was full of mice when I was there it would have brought back memories of the AT

Finally some mild terrain, what a relief! The hut was nice. I’m glad to see you are doing better and feeling better. Keep pushing! You got this!

Thanks for gear source info,nice video...what a view

New socks! Sometimes it's the simple things that can make us happy. That tent has served you well over the last couple of years. I think you got your money's worth.

I’m sure you are replacing a very expensive tent. Did you get sufficient use out of it? I’m assuming it’s been on the AT and through Spain.

50 miles in 4 days is good if you didn't get hurt. 60 years ago, our backpacking tents were made of sail cloth by a sail maker. Look at River Country Products for an inexpensive tarp and a poncho. I bought the whole set up for my son when he was going to hike the AT. I really like their ponchos. I bought a bunch so that I could give some to friends. In the mean time, 3M waterproofing spray might make it waterproof for a while. Enjoy the views. Good Luck, Rick

Welcome back to the trail. Happy trails.🤘🏻🥾⛰️

Great overnighter in Truckee. Beautiful up there. Hike on☮️

Truckee is nice I have never stopped there being only two days from Echo lake it's a little short for most hikers.

Truckee is quite a touristy place. Have been there a few times . Lol. Donner Lake has fascinated me since I had to do a book report on The Donner party way way back in highschool. My sister lives in Reno . It's been a few years since I was there, exploring was always fun. . Hope the trail treats you well. Go get it❤️🇨🇦

From what I can tell, the younger hikers naturally form "tramilies" because they are all around the same age... and end up doing around the same pace and miles per day. Those of us that are older, get passed up and left behind... just like in everyday life. It's rare that you see a tramily which includes even one hiker over the age of 60.

I would not pass up free beer either. Take care.

That seemed like a pretty decent price for the hostel considering everything they had. BTW I saw a Groceries cameo on Lil' Chaps video the other day. It's always fun to see hikers running into each other on trail.

Enjoy your zero and the real name of the ski area is Squaw Valley

Never apologize for making a wise decision. ❤️ Always do what is best for you ❤️ I totally agree with stopping and taking it in , maybe a gift of getting old . I also understand scheduling, budgets and the reasons for being out there are different for eveyone . Thanks for sharing. Stay safe and keep enjoying the adventure.❤️🇨🇦

You made the right decision

I am an older hiker as well and I respect all of your decisions. Being solo has its pros as well as cons. You are a wise woman and love your go get 'em spirit! Life is an adventure! Hike on☮️
