"Kinda dry, though..." Biggest understatement of the whole series, lol. Shortly followed by, "Is that a forest fire over there?" Been thinking about you and the other PCT hikers as the news keeps track of the many fires now burning in California/Oregon/Washington. Stay safe.
YES! Been waiting for this update! Thanks for the most comprehensive and beautiful videos of the PCT on TH-cam. The work you put into the videos on top of the hiking must make for some difficult moments, again thank you!
Another awesome video! Amazing to see the changes in geology and rock formations. For the wind noise I suggest a small piece of cheap sponge or foam. They make dead cats for various cameras that look like a patch of hair - you could color yours red to match your monicker. Lots of DIY options.
I found your channel while looking at gear reviews (love the insight you provide from real use) and next thing I know you are making me appreciate living in Tahoe even more! Thanks for sharing your PCT journey and for reminding me to put down the work get outside and hit the trails.
"This is their view...pretty terrible" haha what a great way to end the video! I know you are having a great time knocking out miles, but we are selfish and want more videos! Keep up the great work Will! ~Ridgewalker
Will, was a little worried for you. Stay clear of the fires. There seems to be a lot them. And did you see Hoss, Ben, or Little Joe? Just kidding. You hiked thru the fictional Ponderosa and the site of the 1960 Winter Olympics. Great job as usual.
Lake Tahoe brings back great memories for me. Im from the UK and visited it in 2008. I also went to Truckee so im a little disappointed that you didnt show some video of the town. Maybe next vid? ;) Theres a great little bar with a pool table, and it serves the UK's "Newcastle Brown Ale"..a recommendation for anyone, not just visitors to Truckee! Enjoy the rest of the hike...cant wait for the next installment, its an awesome ride you're taking us on.
My old stompin' grounds. Donner Summit. Desolation Wilderness is the very best. Not too high, great lakes, not too many folks mid week. Heather Lake is Paradise.
Amazing views😍 so lucky! I plan on doing the pct thru-hike next year. I live in Vancouver bc but I plan on taking a plane to Mexico and starting there which I think would be the best way to do it. I met a lady that was doing the pct this year and I heard its pretty busy since the movie Wild probably brought them all in to hike it, and it definitely worked on me lol! The trail is just gorgeous💚🌲🚶, safe travels for the rest of the way!
Are you using a Suunto Core All Black Military Watch for Altitude and Barometer information? What do you recommend for keeping track of altitude information and what are other people using on the trail? Man, those are beautiful views. Thank you so much. That real read rock up high on the pass, was that iron and volcano lava rock, or what?
Also what kind of camera are you using to vlog the trail with😊? Just askin cuz it has really good quality and I wanna get a good camera for when I vlog the pct, thank you in advance
I feel like you must have a wicked tan line from that hat... how bad is it? Anyway, I adore all your videos!! Sometime when you are done you should do a Q&A video!
Will Wood Wow! That is surprising. No filter is risky, but since you've been doing this for thousands of miles, you know your body best. I will carry a 2 ounce filter due to my inexperience when I hike, especially with my kids. Thanks for responding. Enjoy your hike as we enjoy your videos.

We have been watching your videos for 2 years now. Great videos and best of luck! Bob
Thanks Bob!

Thank you so much for uploading these videos!! I hope I can do the PCT soon, just like you. Your videos are a great inspiration to do that.

Great video Will, by the way, its Alpine Meadows Ski Resort. Excited to see more.

Yeah we didn't spend much time in town because of the great trail angel that let us stay at his place and cooked us dinner!
LOVE LOVE LOVE desolation! It was my favorite part of the TRT.
thanks Will for your videos. Keep trucking bro!
Thanks Jason!
Your videos are awesome, thanks bro!
It is more than beautiful, obviously, Captain.
WOW!!!.....beautiful!!!
So vastly different from the AT. It has it's own beauty. Keep up the good work. Enjoy Tahoe!
Cool video dude! keep up the good work!

Are you going to put out a detailed video of the JMT section and the rest of the hike you haven't posted after your finished? Your videos are awesome!
I will be posting the rest of the JMT when I get home for sure!
+Will “Red Beard” Wood can't wait for it. good luck on the rest of your hike!
Feels like there was a break in the action. There's no segment for Yosemite to Echo Lake?
+Will Wood How do you edit the videos on the go? Do you use an app on your phone or the PC at the hotels and hostels you stay along the way?
Amazing views😍 so lucky! I plan on doing the pct thru-hike next year. I live in Vancouver bc but I plan on taking a plane to Mexico and starting there which I think would be the best way to do it.

Thanks, it's not too busy honestly. You will have a blast on your hike walking home 😏 good luck planning ✌🏼️
another awesome video. you should do the CDT next year.
Glad you enjoyed the video my friend, I won't be doing the CDT for atleast 5-7 years! My body hurts 😉
Are you using a Suunto Core All Black Military Watch for Altitude and Barometer information? What do you recommend for keeping track of altitude information and what are other people using on the trail?
Man, those are beautiful views. Thank you so much.
That real read rock up high on the pass, was that iron and volcano lava rock, or what?
I use a Casio Protrek 3000 for all my readings.
Thanks. Are you satisfied with it, or do you recommend something else?
5:18, what kind of solar charger did she have?
Also what kind of camera are you using to vlog the trail with😊? Just askin cuz it has really good quality and I wanna get a good camera for when I vlog the pct, thank you in advance
Sony HDR AS200v
Just wondering why the series jumped from Half Dome to Echo Lake?
ever since mt whitney, I'm confused if you guys are on the PCT ........are the ski resorts part of PCT?
Yep we were always on the PCT. Often the long trails including the AT are literally on sky slopes. Pretty crazy.
Did you need to get a permit to hike in desolation wilderness? For day hiking ?
Did you skip Tuolumne Meadows to Echo Summit?
I feel like you must have a wicked tan line from that hat... how bad is it? Anyway, I adore all your videos!! Sometime when you are done you should do a Q&A video!
I always wonder that as well.
Ha! Yeah it is bad for sure. Ive got the worst farmers tan of my life!!
+Will Wood Question for you, do you regularly resupply your water in those ponds or just running streams?
Only springs since I don't filter.
Will Wood Wow! That is surprising. No filter is risky, but since you've been doing this for thousands of miles, you know your body best. I will carry a 2 ounce filter due to my inexperience when I hike, especially with my kids. Thanks for responding. Enjoy your hike as we enjoy your videos.
Does anyone think this area looks prehistoric?
What do you guys eat when you're on the trail?
Way too much tuna!
Skipped Yosemite to Tahoe?
