This is the prettiest area of the Sierras so far. Thousand island lake, so beautiful.
I did some day hiking around Tuolumne meadows into Lyell canyon. So now I can say I hiked the PCT ;-)
It was such a peaceful hike along the lyell river I wish I would have had more time to camp somewhere in the backcountry and enjoy the beauty.
Happy hiking,
Reiner
Free concert at Whoa Nellie Deli in Lee Vining..., great food there also at the Mobile gas station. Hard to past up the menu at this place. Had the chance to take in a portion of this gorgeous part of the planet last summer too 👊😎...
Looks like an epic hike! Thanks for sharing
Another great video by the lovely Mari. Nice to see both of you holding up so well. You are both strong prople. The music is upbeat and inspirational and makes me want to get out there as well. The camera shots are good and I'm really enjoying watching your journey. 👍
So glad you like it :) I hope you do get out there!
Sooo nice! I've really enjoyed watching all of the PCT videos you've posted so far. Thanks for sharing your adventures.
Oh my dear, you look so very tired. What an enormous effort not only to hike, but to make these videos. Thank you!
Tuolumne looks so inviting🤠 Enjoying the series!!
Great footage! Mammoth looks like a fun town too
Everything is so beautiful in the High Sierras! Good timing at Tuolumne Meadows.
Seriously so gorgeous!
This section is beautiful. Part of the JMT, I did it 60 days after you, no snow, no bugs, there were only 3 of us in the hiker camp, love the cafe grill, stuffed myself.
You guys are kicking the miles.
Looking through the videos and the dates, I think we keep passing each other here. I remember running into Pellet in Northern Yosemite. Great memories in this stretch.
thanks so much for still putting out these videos! I’m doing the pct next year and I appreciate your videos so much!
I'm excited for you next year!
Nice edit!
Thank you!
Another great video! Thank you! I need that straw in my life. Please tell me how to get one!!
I’ve just filmed a video about it and it’ll be out in a couple of days!
Mari Johnson awesome! My google searches have been fruitless 😂
Beautiful scenery! The nice thing about dried hummus is that you can flavor it a lot of different ways. I almost always add some dehydrated lemon powder. I've also added paprika, garlic powder, ground cumin, and many other spices, alone or in combination.
Ooh I’ll have to try that!
@@mari.johnson I haven't brought avocado on trail because I don't want to deal with pit and skin but I do take pickling cucumbers and ranch dressing to go with hummus on tortillas.
And olive oil, always add olive oil to anything that will take it for the calories. It works real well with hummus. Just don't use coconut oil.
That campsite in the trees with all the snow is so beautiful, what an amazing trip 😍🍑💕
8:14 First views of Mt Banner (on the right) and Mt Ritter (on the left). John Muir on the first ascent of Mt Ritter (Oct 1872): "At length, I found myself at the foot of a sheer drop in the bed of the avalanche channel, which seemed to bar all further progress. The tried dangers beneath seemed even greater than that of the cliff in front; therefore, after scanning its face again and again, I commenced to scale it, picking my holds with intense caution. After gaining a point about half-way to the top, I was brought to a dead stop, with arms outspread, clinging close to the face of the rock, unable to move hand or foot either up or down. My doom appeared fixed. I must fall. There would be a moment of bewilderment, and then a lifeless tumble down the once general precipice to the glacier below. When this final danger flashed in upon me, I became nerve-shaken for the first time since setting foot on the mountain, and my mind seemed to fill with a stifling smoke. But the terrible eclipse lasted only a moment, when life burst forth again with preternatural clearness. I seemed suddenly to become possessed of a new sense. The other self -- the ghost of by-gone experiences, instinct, or Guardian Angel -- call it what you will -- came forward and assumed control. Then my trembling muscles became firm again, every rift and flaw was seen as through a microscope, and my limbs moved with a positiveness and precision with which I seemed to have nothing at all to do. Had I been borne aloft upon wings, my deliverance could not have been more complete. Above this memorable spot, the face of the mountain is still more savagely hacked and torn. But the strange influx of strength I had received seemed inexhaustible. I found a way without effort and soon stood upon the topmost crag in the blessed light."
Gorgeous part of the trail! I love a good meadow!
It’s so nice that you have a crew you’re hiking with. Have you met many solo hikers along the way or have most people formed groups by now?
Yeah they were great hiking partners. Most people were in some sort of group for the Sierra section (safety in numbers😊)
Wow incredible trail on the snow.. enjoyed your video.. want to trail same way, thanks for sharing your video. Enjoyed it
16:16 I thought that deer running by in the background behind Party Tart was bigfoot ngl
haha I didn't even notice that before!
You have become my 11-year old daughter's hero... and her inspiration to do the PCT (with me) in 2 years! Thanks for sharing your journey!
ahh that's so cool! What a great experience that will be for you two! Sending lots of love
I’m loving your videos! I’m hoping to do the PCT in 2021 :) can I ask you what do you use for video editing? Thank you :)
That's exciting! Here's how I edited videos on trail: th-cam.com/video/lt7gQao5Mfs/w-d-xo.html Now I use Final Cut Pro
Your videos have the best soundtrack of all the hiker videos I have watched. You always seem to have the perfect song to go along with the video. Keep it up!
That's so nice of you to say! Especially because I spend a lot of time on that part! It's nice to know it's appreciated :)
I really appreciate your videos Mari! Just the right amount of calm narrative, great music and excellent trail vid of the amazing Sierra!
You may have stated but when did y’all come through Forester and Whitney? June?, early July? I have a trip planned for summer 2020.
Food carry is a Catch-22 situation.
I’d love to do the PCT one day. Great trail in the mountains 👌
One of my favorite places in the world ❤️
This is definitely different scenery and landscape from NZ looks great though. Any wild life there like bears 🐻
I'm editing the same section of this episode. It looks totally different with lots of snow and water! You must've had much more fun than I had. Haha...
Ah crazy! Haha not sure if more snow = more fun 😆
So what happened to the fifth member of your group? The dude who lost his phone in the river...
Enjoying your hike. Takes dedication, courage and curiosity. I’ve spent a little time on the PCT in the Sierra City area but mostly in the Southern Oregon Cascades. In 1968 I spent a summer with the USFS cutting a new trail to Lake Ivern in Seven Lakes Basin. We were pulled off that job to repair parts of the PCT near Devil’s Peak. Maybe you will have some pictures of that area.
I’m a Marin County native and grew up on Mt. Tamalpais in Mill Valley. Good luck!
Oh wow, cool! Hello to a fellow Marin native! :)
@@helpfulcommenter That I am. And who might you be?
Hey Mari, I noticed the straw in your water bottle, what is the brand name and where do I get one?
Same! What's the straw/topper there?
Hello Travellers welcome to my channel
Where did you get that straw lid for smart bottles? Great video series!
How does the cheese not go bad?
Beautiful scenery!!!💖😊🐶🐶
Lee vining has a mobile station with an amazing gourmet restaurant in the gas station, the Whoa Nellie deli. Great views too. Check it out next time you are in upper Yosemite
What is the straw in your water bottle?
first
王傲 Darn, beat me to it!
So beautiful! Great music, too. Can you guess how much your pack weighed at its heaviest? Hard to do! 💕
Makes me happy I can share it all with you :) Maybe around 45 lbs with water and all the extra food?
@@mari.johnson Yikes, that's a lot! No wonder your feet and body are still recovering.
I loved Yosemite! So pretty and it's smells so fresh. Absolutely love your videos
“There were a lot of clean people there” 😂

Hi Mari,
At what date did you start in Campo. Was there more snow than usual this year or did you start in early April?
I started April 21 - there was about 200% more snow than average this year
Hi Mari. I'm going to hike the PCT next year (2021 - turning 60, woo hoo!) and I want to vlog it. I really like the way you have the map of the PCT and the aplet that traces your route and shows the distance you traveled each day. How do you do that?! Maybe you could direct me to some links or other information where I could learn how to create a quality vlog next year so I can start my research and get practicing? If you could I'd be so grateful!
I'm really enjoying your vlog which is totally psyching me up for the hike. I started the AT back in '08 on April Fool's Day (my birthday is in April so it seemed appropriate : -D). It was an epoch, life changing hike to Katahdin that year. Since then I've done the JMT in 2010 and the French route of the Camino de Santiago in 2013, but I've been too long on my bum! I'm really getting the itch to do another thru and we live in the Pacific Northwest, so the PCT is it! I CAN'T WAIT!
@@helpfulcommenter Last March (2020) I fell 10' off a ladder onto concrete and shattered my heel. After the surgery, I had a terrible allergic reaction to the metal plate and screws they put in so I had to have a second surgery! I'm walking again, but not without a significant amount of pain and my ankle joint is now pretty arthritic... The shorter answer is no.
BUT, the good news is that I can walk and we bought some land. Quite a bit of land! So I'm turning my focus and passion to building a homestead there.
Happy hiking, and if you make it to the Bridge of the God's be sure to contact me for some trail magic! I'll come get you and bring you in to Portland and host you for a break from the trail!
@@helpfulcommenter I LOVED the JMT. Enjoy!
Every time y'all wade across an icy cold mountain stream I get chills watching it and wonder how you can stand that cold....brrrrr....
Haha I definitely don’t miss crossing those streams!
Love seeing your updates, it's a nice little break for me to listen to some great tunes with inspiring views and share in the adventure with cool people. What do you have planned next once this series is complete?
Not sure yet! :)
omg drew holcomb!!!! mari you're the best
Love that area... but man oh man do the mosquitos drive me nuts! Backcountry camper in Yosemite last year, early July... bug city! Do you still keep in touch with Bart/Party Tart?
I definitely don't miss the bugs! Yep, still keep in touch :)
#WhatATreat
while you lived in the area(Ca) Nick has not. Has this been his fave section or is it too strenuous to be the fave. Actually refreshing to see a guy with a haircut on the trail. He's setting new fashion trends. Finally, did you go on a mosquito watch inside the tent every day just to make sure none were there before sleeping?
It was definitely one of his favorite sections! Mine too 😊 haha just tried to get in and out of the tent quickly so no mosquitoes got in
Love it!...you went to my favorite Mammoth Pizza place. Thats always my number one stop when I get into Mammoth. Hopefully you checked out the Bakery....so good. You are there during the major Mosquito season, right during snow melt....been there, done that. Not fun fighting those nasty biters. Now days I do my trips in the Fall, after labor day...way less people and no more Mosquitos. Loving your trip. Brings back a lot of memories of my past trips.
That pizza place was great! Don't recall a bakery... next time I guess! Yeah it was definitely the worst time for mosquitoes!
hey Mari! Did you experience any altitude sickness signs while going trough the Sierra section?
Fortunately no - very thankful for that!
I love your videos! The music is always excellent too. What songs did you use in this video?
Thanks Julia! All of the songs are from Musicbed share.mscbd.fm/marijohnson I'll try to make a playlist of all the songs I use soon!
Nick must be as strong as he looks to be packing huge candles like that :o) I wont even pack a stove haha
Haha desperate times call for desperate measures.
@@mari.johnson Great answer :o)
Hammer, you nailed it🔨
❤️👍🏽👏🏽
Ami the only one who thinks the videos are coming out to slow? I gotta know if she makes it to the end! More content! Lol
How come you guys need canes? Why don't you guys ever run? You not old.
Captain Nemo stupid post!
