Congratulations! What an accomplishment! Thanks for taking the time to share your experience. Hope to see another hike pop up on your channel soon. Enjoy your rest!
I watched all your videos prior to hiking the PCT in 2016, the year after you hiked it. Now I'm rewatching some of your videos before I hike it next year in 2025, 9 years later. Really loved your videos. Thanks for putting them together and for keeping them here.
That so awesome to hear, glad to know I have provided some inspiration! And you're going back to hike it again too, wonderful to hear. Safe travels out there. The trail provides! :)
Congratulations. You did a fantastic job of chronicling your journey, too, so thank you, a well. I hope you can come back and hike in Washington in the summer sometime. It's a shame that so many through hikers never get to see how spectacular our mountains are when they aren't covered by the rainy season clouds.
Congratulations Ken !! Its been such a pleasure watching and sharing your hike. You have taken so much time and effort to document this walk.....Thank you. I hope we can see a video of your feelings and thoughts, lessons learnt once you settle. You made it...awesome :-)
Outstanding Mate! I have seen dozens of thru-hiking videos and yours is the best. Great attitude. I also love the fact that you did not include lousy, unlistenable stock music or that silly Proclaimers song. Great job. You are a made man!
Hey Ken, I have a question for you. When going into Canada, did you have your passport checked? I don't have one, and was just planning on packing back through Washington.
The actual border crossing was quite casual... (no sign of patrolling there, or even all the way to manning park when I crossed.) Keep your options open, and you can always apply for a re-entry permit a few weeks from your eta if needed (they sent me the approved form pretty quickly by email)... I caught a ride back with another hiker, and did need to present the form/passport for re-entry via the freeway crossing.
The fall in Washington is one of the most colorful places in the world if you can put up with the rain and fog. To enjoy the splendor of Washington you need to visit us in August if you want sunshine and warm weather. This year is a bad year with all the fires in surrounding states all the smoke is coming here unless the wind is coming off the coast , we have had the worst air quality for 2 weeks, worst than any place in the world. So I guess feel fortunate with what you got because with climate change the future of the PCT might be waking in smoke from Mexico to Canada.
Well done Ken! Great adventure, thanks for sharing
Thanks for the ride. Inspiration for me before I get too old.
Congratulations!!! Been awesome following you on your journey!
Thanks for taking me along!
Washington looks beautiful and beautifully wet.

Thanks dudamel!
Great finale to a wonderful experience. Congrats and thanks for doing such a good job of sharing. Now what's in store for next season? CDT? AT?
I think the AT and CDT are definitely options in the future for me.. just a matter of figuring out when. :)
+Ken Lambdin Maybe Te Araroa in New Zealand, only a paltry 1875 miles. www.teararoa.org.nz/
hah! I suppose it will be summer over there soon...
