❤ our time as a team in the Sierras will always be so close to my heart and being. What a time of redemption, trial, joy, and exhaustion.
What a time ❤️. We'll remember those stretches forever.
I don't usually comment on videos. However, I would just like to say that I love this series. Your filming style and all the things to do with pretty pictures is just incredible and now I feel invested in to this journey that you have take. This is storytelling at its best.
Irish Exit made his film about the 2019 PCT experience, but he failed to do what you continue to do video to video Elina - show his fun, adventurous and personable side. It's one of those things your videos do that very few other PCT videos do - the focus on the people you traveled with, not just yourself - and it is awesome.
He is THE most fun, adventurous, kind hearted soul. I'm glad I'm able to show a glimpse of it.
I love that you include the tougher parts of the trail, even though we probably aren't seeing even close to all of it. Cheers for getting through all that shit! Good people help. Looking forward to the rest of the series. Much love, zeke from Vancouver
“The full story is not something I’m ready to share”. I’m still waiting
You're honestly one of the most talented story tellers on this platform. No other creator has captured the spirit of trail like you have.
It's true. I spent the last few hours skimming through other trail movies and nothing is touching Elina's film. No one else seems to capture the thrill of new relationships, the beauty of the trail, and the personal growth that comes with a journey like this.
We are all so very lucky that you found your electronics bag. Sundays wouldn't be the same without your vlogs. You had the timing right for getting over Mather Pass. Some hikers a week or so before you had some horrible experiences. The beauty of the Sierra certainly has to be earned with pain! Great video, thanks.
Love these videos. I am starting my journey in 2021. I will be 55 that year and so it's time for me to get off my ass and do what I have talked and dreamed about for over 2 decades. Happy you found your electronics bag
YESSS! So incredible to hear. YOU GOT THIS! (And ohmy relief of my life).
I'm also planning on doing the same, maybe see you on the trail
Hey I'm doing 2021 as well! Hope to see you there
Good luck. That’s awesome!!!🙌🏼
😍 really some epic stretches. And one day we will read more about timestamp 4:27 in your book 😉.
As you also had a lot of snow in the mountains: I highly recommend to watch "The long way home" from Titouan Le Roux. He did the PCT in 2023 with the highest snowpack ever. With an epic strech over San Jacinto and trough the Sierra.
So satisfying to watch these episodes. For some reason I was especially looking forward to this one. Woke up early and kept refreshing your page until I got the notification 😂 thanks again for the incredible work you're doing with these videos. They are beautiful.
Also, I'm interested to hear the full story of what happened before Mammoth (with all the rain and thunderstorms) - when you're ready of course - I think it's great that you don't just show the romantic side of hiking. It's incredible and inspiring to see all the ups and downs.
Looking forward to the next chapter ❤️
Who would have even thought to look behind the fridge? Must have been an exciting night for it to even end up there. ;0) LOL! Cow Bell and his “Shit Spoon” story......EPIC!
When you are ready go make a video about your worst
Days of your pct moments..... We have seen the good things!!!!!
And they make me cry........
I love to seey your bad days to....
Whit allrespect. .....Everybody have bad days
Makes me and ererybody eise stronger...
UP TO YOU ELINA......
Elina, this video series made me realize it’s possible to get post trail depression and not hike a single step. Living vicariously through your wonderful series.
wow! in those portraits you can see their souls. Lovely.
Will you do another video about the last stretch before Mammoth? I can imagine it's also a very personal story but since I am just getting into long distance hiking and the PCT is kind of the holy grail I am just curious what kind of hardship one has to deal with. Love your videos!
It's quite crazy how different the Sierra-section can be. In the vid 'The art of walking' from Austin Seder from 2021, the Sierra-chapter is entitled 'Easy livin' (almost no snow at the same time).
there are so many amazing pct videos on youtube but yours are overall the best. great balance between cinema and storytelling. thank you for these
In hundreds of hours of standing on the side of the road hitching, I have always dreamed about being picked up by an RV and having them say " Beer's in the fridge, help yourself." It has not happened to me yet, but happy to see that part of it happened to your group.
OMG, now I am dying to here the story of the tough times through the Sierras; please tell it some day soon. You have a natural talent for storytelling.
"It's a pleasure to walk in the footsteps of the great peanut butter.." Man that made me laugh. Honestly these videos are great. The story telling, the videography - those portrait photos! You're a great story teller. I'm so invested in this hike now, and the friendships are so pure.
ELINA I LOVE YOUR SUPER POSITIVE ENERGY
every one of these videos makes me cry happy tears. wonderful storytelling
AT ‘19er here. I have yet to watch one of your videos and not get emotional-brings all the feels! Phenomenal.
The friendships... ALWAYS balances out the hardships 👊😎...
Love watching your videos and been especially waiting for this episode. I'm a Brit who lived in Ashland for 5 years back in the 80's. Owned the youth hostel and met many PCT hikers as we were a registry. Learned to x-country ski around Crater Lake fueled by mushrooms and white wine. Gorgeous country, having lived in the Middle East for 13 years I really miss it. Enjoy.
I'm wondering if you will ever address what happened on trail in the sierras? Love your journey!
Love it love it can not wait for more , I for one u might to think about entering an short movie festival or other cool things . I believe that u are a natural story teller .
This was awesome. Your filming, narrating, editing and music selections work so well together to tell a beautiful story. Well done my friend
You make me want to do a thru hike. Wish i could hike with you, you have such good vibes.
So glad you recovered your electronics bag. Your videos are amazing!
This year, I deleted all social media and was planning on not using TH-cam, either. However, your creativity and storytelling keeps me coming back. I look forward to your videos every week and love the way you incorporate the good, the bad, the ugly, and the beautiful. Thank you for the beauty you bring to this platform!
I'm so sad now because I'm so impatient for the next chapter!
But if Elina keeps dropping them every week or two, then we'll have new videos for most of the rest of the year and that would also be excellent.
@@lukeroberts440 that's true! but it doesn't change my annoying habit of being a very impatient person :D
I have really enjoyed all these 2019 PCT videos, and this one is my favorite. They are done so beautifully and artistically, and the music is very well chosen and does not dominate the video. The narration is beautiful. I finally completed the JMT in 2019 after sporadically doing sections of it over 29 years, and now I'm piecing together sections of the PCT...I may or may not finish, and that's not the point. We're all out there to have fun and see the world and meet other like minded awesome people. I, too, would love to learn someday what happened between Mather Pass and Mammoth (since that was the last section I did before completing the JMT), but no pressure. Big love to you Elina, keep making your beautiful videos!
I'm yet to see another place I've seen so much and continues to be so repeatedly beautiful (and borderline menacing) as the Sierra Nevada.
I can't thank you enough for sharing your journey with us.
Cheers, ma'am.
🍻
"When my tummy starts being like, yo, feed me, man"... who hasn't felt that on the trail? Love, love love!
This is definitely my favorite one so far! Brutally Honest but lovely. Kudos
Thank you for everything, beautiful Elina! My ankle has been wonky for months. Please consider sharing your magical ankle repair process with us.
Best!
:)
First we are all so happy you found your electronics bag! Second appreciate you sharing your adventure and you are so right “It is the People”
I need to tell you how much joy I get from watching your journey. You are a brilliant filled maker. Thank you
Out of all the thru-hike videos I have watched so far, I find these the best by far. I may be at work or at home watching, but I feel like you are able to capture the spirit of the the moments on the trail incredibly well!
I've never waited for new episodes of someone's TH-cam channel the way you've got me waiting for this. So good. No backpacking content I've seen has made me seriously consider doing a through-hike, but your videos have been building the desire, brick by brick. Thank you for sharing.
I feel the need for more closely spaced Elina videos. Thanks Elina, you got me hooked!!!!
Hello my Outdoors friend, thank you for sharing another episode of your epic trek on the PCT. The Eastern Sierras can really kick one's backside. You seem to be holding up quite well. All the best to you Dear. Take care, be safe and always have too much fun. 🤗
Tip tap, thank you. You have some serious story telling talent there kiddo, not to mention the cutest wink. Stay healthy and happy. Catch you next week. Can't wait.
"i maaaaade coffeeeee, i made coffee"
Very well filmed as usual. Great story telling! 👍 Keep us the great work. 💪👍🎵🎉🎶😀
As the hiker who quit the trail since frostbite in Sierras, your video have continued my trip, thanks! :)
Take care of those ankles . Beauty in motion describes your footage. Peace and safety on your journey .
Both you and Panda have a way of bringing the trail alive! Well done Elina!
Wow....again. Another fantastic video. The time of watching goes by so fast. That is meant as a huge compliment and it means you have made a completely transfixing video. As others have said, great storytelling here! 👍👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Best way to end a Sunday,.. a smile and watching Chapter Six. Thanks again!
Great shots from Glen pass! So steep 🤙
Cannot get enough of these videos. You are such a beautiful spirit and your story telling, videography, and and humour make these vids so addicting! Can't wait to see more.
You are an inspiration to all of us in many ways. I’ve only recently fallen in love with hiking and backpacking and am not yet ready to hike a long trail. Thank you for sharing your journey for those of us who look forward to our own long trail journeys. I’ll end with one more comment: The quality of your edits has raised the bar on what we will begin to enjoy from future classes, I know it.
I never want this series to end!!!!
Absolutely incredible. Aw inspiring. Every time I watch one of your videos it makes me want to run to my computer and start editing. Wow just wow 👏
I thought I was the only one who keeps twisting my ankle multiple times whenever I hike you're so strong
Hello Elina! I came across your channel today and absolutely loving it! I plan on doing the PCT one day! I am 54yrs old so I guess I need to hurry up! So happy you found your camera bag!! Thank you for sharing! 👍😘🙏🇬🇧
your video is the best video on this planet earth .
Thank you again, great experiences shared.
Awesome videos! Thanks for making them. Will not miss a single chapter. My favorite hiking story for sure.
Lol brushing those teeth with a cut brush, and those dirty hands xD Life of a thru hiker
Beautifully done, again. I enjoy your trail family. They are as special as you are. Hike on! Skillet
Love cow bells’s crocs haha
It has been a joy to be able to follow along on your adventure...An awesome strong outdoors woman with A beautiful spirit !! Looking forward to what lies ahead......Stay Safe and God Bless......
Nameste ( Hello ) from Nepal. I loved watching your PCT series and it's really amazing to watch...I loved travelling and exploring the beauty of the nature so thank you so much for you inspiration. I hope you will be fine with your ankle so be safe and take care.
Cant wait to see your next series 😊.
Cheers 🍻🍻
Can you please make a playlist with your background music? It's soo nice! 🌞💛
Also all of you guys are so sympathetic 😄
gosh, I could listen this voice for hours! great work!
I would highly suggest doing the JMT in August when the snow is gone and rivers are easy to cross. It is a beautiful trail that is much easier to enjoy in the summer.
Addicted to this story! 💪😉
Oh, I feel for you, with that ankle. Once they are injured, they are more susceptible to frequent injuries. I know how bad the Sierras were this year. A friend was hiking with, "Little Skittles", man, what they faced in the Sierras was NASTY! I had to laugh for a minute, sounded like "Beer" canisters.
I love your series! You're so talented and your videos are really beautifully put together. Can't wait to someday hike the PCT! :)
Awesome Tip Tap. I didn't walk through the Sierra on last year's PCT hike, but hiked the JMT in '16 & '17. I don't know why exactly, but Mather was my favorite Pass each time. Honestly, I love all the passes, but Mather was special. Another great chapter. Thank you.
Good stuff and nice editing 👌
I come back to this episode to look for redemption. It feels like even if the sky falls down, we know we'll still get thru it. The Sierras are something else
Hello, what a fabulous trail vlog. We thoroughly enjoyed and empathized with your joy and truly severe trials. You have our heart-felt admiration and this is one of the top 5 vlogs we’ve ever seen. Well wishes and a long, happy life.
I enjoy these so much! I like what you said about how it’s easy to make it look like so much fun when you put happy music to it but in reality it’s much different.
Keep it up! I absolutely love these videos
This is so beautiful, the spirit! Cheers from Taiwan.
I have been enjoying this series so much!! You are good at telling your story. :-)
Sooo much snow... wow! Hope to see that your ankle recovered in the next episode! And once again, GREAT music!
These videos are so damn good, I’ve watched many thru hiking videos & series but the way you capture the experience is magical. The videos pass in a moment, they never feel long enough 🧡 Despite the hardships, as you say - it is the people.
Terrific, Congratulations on your Epic 2019 PCT thru hike.
All of you guys ...
3 Cheers
🍺🍺🍺
👍. All around fantastic.
Your photography (in particular the busts of the group at 13:00) is mesmerizing and beautiful.
got a taste of the unpredictable weather of the sierras back in 2018 doing Rae lakes, some crazy stuff man!
Muir Pass was truly brutal! I think it was my least favorite day on trail, but I'd happily do it again!
This series is everything
probably my favorite pct series i've seen--introspective, reallllly well shot, entertaining, and highlights the community sososo well!
Love the vibe, wish i was in your crew, too cool !!!
Thanks for being so real! Love the cover photo too.
I loved this series from day 1...!! Its An insperation
As someone who's hikes all over the Sierra's, I have to say they do not end at Kennedy North. They get lower, but its still the Sierras. Otherwise, nice videos.
Each episode is getting better!! Amazing storytelling!! You're born to do this!!
Elina awesome job. Love watching the series. I'm hooked!
Kia Ora! Loving these videos. Thanks for making them :)
So glad you found your camera gear, would have been such a loss of memories and all this quality yt content! When you misplace stuff like that it's such a bad gut punch.
I loved this chapter so much. My crew was a few days behind you guys and we ended up deciding to bail out at Taboose Pass after a scary crossing at White Fork. Also we really really sucked at getting up early, haha. Seeing those passes I missed feels so bittersweet, but it's also got me pumped that I get to go back and rehike the Sierra this summer. You've done such a wonderful job capturing the experience of the trail - can't wait to watch the rest!
When I saw your mount Whitney accent it looked like you went to heaven and saw your friends from pct you haven’t seen before
Hey Tip Tap-- I'm Toast, Sobo '19. We probably crossed paths somewhere in Oregon. At 13:10 one of your trailmates ("Kevlar?" climbing in the snow toward Sonora Pass?) mentions "following the footsteps of the great Mr. Peanutbutter." Mr Peanutbutter was the first nobo thru I met, we shared a table at the Timberline Lodge Breakfast buffet! That was on August 2, 2019, as a sobo I was about 550 miles in. Great video, thanks. FYI, I had the exact tent situation you did--started with a Plexamid, the struts exploded, and I swapped out for a Duplex Palace! Happy trails.
Absolutely love everything about your videos! You bring such a positive mood and your film making skills are top notch, keep the videos coming :)
