Hey how can we donate a beverage to your cause?

Yeahhooo- Almost 1/3 of the way. BTW, You are hitting the Sierra at the right time. Happy Trails.

Congratulations! Kennedy Meadows is a serious step on the PCT.

Congratulations on 700miles!! Love to see those smiling faces. Looking forward to your vids in the Sierra. Hike on☮️

You guys are doing good

Congratulations on your first huge milestone! Can't wait for the Sierra's!

By the time you guys read this you are probably already some distance into the Sierra, but I would definitely be wary of and prepared for the amount of mosquitoes and bugs you will be encountering. Having hiked in the Sierra extensively over the years I can attest from firsthand experience that the mosquitoes in the summertime are wicked bad. Plus quite a number of the other through hikers I've been following on The Tube are all commenting on and complaining about the volume of mosquitoes attacking them every time they come to a stop. You folks are probably already prepared for this, but on the off chance you are not, I just thought I'd trow it out there.

Nice! Thanks for the shoutout!

Congrats on completing the desert! Enjoy the Sierra!!!

What a great accomplishment to reach Kennedy Meadows, you guys are crushing it. What day did you arrive to KM? Doing a little research for my PCT in 2025 thanks in advance 🤙🏽

Love the stickers. Y'all should consider selling them...hint, hint, hint

Those stickers are so cute!

Congrats guys.

Day 52 and you’re just getting into Kennedy Medows?? Might wanna step up the pace because at those rate you might hit the Canadian border by January 2025 Okay EDIT : I crunched some numbers and your actually only about 20-25 days behind the average pace of most PCT hikers. Usually you wanna be in Kennedy Meows around day 35-40 tops so you’re not as slow as originally thought! Remember 20-30 miles days! One foot after the other you can do it!

Just a thought….Anna looks like she has lost weight. Could that be part of the problem her pack is not fitting correctly? Really enjoy watching you two hike. Maybe while in the Sierras, you could have a daily wrap up from both of you…in other words…what each thought of that day’s hike.

Good luck on your next venture.

Enjoy your journey, continue with enthusiasm

Love the creativity of the Backcountry Bourbon Pink Drink!! OMG you are above the clouds! What a georgeous sunset and sunrise!!!

OMG that filter trapped a lot!! Nice they can be backflushed.

That black snake was HUGE!!! Glad you went to a Clean Laundry rather than a dirty but ne.

The kennels you passed were left over from when many movies and shows, star trek .... were made in the vicinity.

Hope you both continue to heal quickly! Love following along! 🥾

Cheryl talks about this section exactly like this, hot, very hot. I can almost see her walking with you guys. I’m so impressed by you and Anna, you are like such great experienced hikers, I wish to get there someday, maybe. I love your videos, keep going strong! P.S.: I love that Anna is on the name of the channel finally!!!!

You two are terrific and so chill. I know that heat on trail. It can be very oppressive and y'all are killin it! Love your style with videos and showing the reality of it all good and bad. I know you're currently in the Sierra with a whole different set of challenges. Thank you for sharing your trek with us. Hike on!☮️

You’re building grit. And hiking in high heat is tough!

Im.loving your journey. Thanks for being honest and sharing the struggles.

Being from AZ you probably know about swamp coolers. Become a walking swamp cooler at water sources :) Keep going and keeping it real J&A.

The most whining I’ve ever heard on a hiking video. Skip the most suckass sections if you hate them that much.

Stay focused .... you are doing great pushing through the tough days! I am curious how the Mirage Hoody is doing in the heat? I feel mine is too warm once temps exceed 70F

Look on the bright side, all those 20+ mile days get you to Kennedy Meadow's sooner... Keep on hiking.. Thanks for sharing...

The heat must be so oppressive. 😢 The Sierra with cooler temps and abundant water is close! Devilfish is a legend. Such a great guy! He bounces up and stocks caches in Oregon when the bubble is closer to our state. He’s helped me out several times. Keep on trudging!

Keep it up, each hard day now will make future days easier. Pretty soon 20 miles will be your easy days!

You guys are studs. It'll get better.

Interesting topic as you approach 700 miles, on what gear worked out and what you would do differently for the first 700 miles. Thanks for the content 🤙🏽

Kakwa to the rescue!!

Quick tip: tap your filter on the counter on its side wile rotating it. Keep back flushing and tapping until watter is clear with no debris. My filter is 5 years old. Pro tip never let it dry out.

How about "Night Raider" ? :-)

After 2 months on the trail how is this holding up? Anything you'd change?

Cheers to ice cold town beers!

4:34 -- I guess it FELT like Day 46.

It makes me so happy that Cheryl is present here. I love the movie and I’m reading her book right now, and I can see her there, through that heat, pushing to get to Kennedy Meadows where Greg was waiting for her. I am so inspired by that woman and proud of her, she was the one who made me interested in the PCT. I didn’t even know it existed before I saw the movie. And now I am so inspired and proud of you guys, I really am. I see Anna and I wanna be her friend, I see you and I wanna be your friend. Thanks for this content. Thanks. I wish one day it will be me there, free at the PCT, pushing and pushing, and getting to the goal.

20 mi water carries are not fun. I hope Anna's feet are ok? It's been so hot in the desert here for several weeks now. Not long until KMS! Your vids are very enjoyable! Thank you for sharing your trek with us. Take care☮️

Another awesome video! Thanks for the time and effort you put into making these videos and sharing your journey with us! That EXACT stretch full on handed me my ass in '21. Glad I'm not the only one!!!

The movie Wild is why I started following hikers on the PCT. Thanks for taking the time to share your journey.

Impressive to carry all that in the heat! I've really been enjoying following your through hike. I hope you will have more reasonable weather, shade and plenty of cool beer ahead!

Thank you

Congrats on your steady progress through this section. Love y'all's sense of humor! Assume by now you're enjoying a a delightful zero somewhere in the Owens Valley. FWIW, the southern boundary of the Sierra Nevada is Tehachapi Pass, although recent thru hiker custom gives that title to KMS. Cheers!

I am not a hiker but love your videos. I am 68 years old and living vicariously through you. I did appreciate the reference to “Wild” as I read her book. Thanks for sharing.

T>WP can be rough. Maybe v early morning & late night hiking 🤷‍♂️. I’ve lucked out & never needed that during my 2 transits. But I’m ready. I do carry an umbrella for portable shade. U guys are beasts w/ all that food & water.
