Dearest Carolyn: first, thank you for putting together this beautiful vlog. The scenery is fabulous, and so are the many shots and angles you put together just for us. Second, I wish I could take your migraine away. I know how debilitating those can be. Thirdly, please accept my fondest wishes, blessings and gratitude. I love watching your adventures.
Patrick O'Donovan I’m so sorry you have migraines too. They are very debilitating. I wouldn’t wish them on anyone. Hope today is a good day for you!!❤️💜
CAROLYN. One of the things I love about you is how you have always filmed the most beautiful Barron trees along your journeys I so appreciate that you see the beauty in these trees. You see the beauty in people as well and I always notice these things. Thank you for sharing all the unique people,places and things in this beautiful world we live in. I so appreciate you. Hugs
What a beautiful reward you got for the endurance it took to get a fantastic camp area. I would have camped there for another day and soaked in the beauty! Nature heals the body, mind, and soul. Amazing.
You are an amazing woman. When I have migraines I am worthless. I can’t be around light, smells, sounds. Especially out in the hot sun. You are something else.. ❤️❤️❤️
After 12 tears of multiple natural remedies, to say the least, (calculated I'd spent entire year of my life locked in blacked out bedroom in horrid pain and projectile vomiting, without relief), and then taking your Rx, was told by pharmacist about Zomig/zolmitriptan and it changed my life! It stopped every migraine. Yay!Freedom! That was over 17 years ago. Still take as needed. Thank god for it!
When I pass from this world into the next, I pray I can spend every day in the kind of beauty you found at this camping spot. What a wonderful reward for pushing through your pain.
Wow! So much beauty today! Amazing views and meadows and water. I'm so impressed with the way you keep trooping in spite of the obstacles. Hiking with a migraine can't be fun, but you have such a good attitude! Thanks for sharing your trip!
Ooooooohhhh, Carolyn! With each vid, I can feel the allure of your journey! The scenery is Achingly Beautiful, and I long to be there, too. The most appealing aspects for me would be the peaceful isolation and the tranquility of the wilderness. And it would be like reciting a mantra of footsteps and breaths, over and over. Thanks for the trip.
Carolyn thank you for these wonderful and amazing videos! Due to a health issue I now live in a nursing facility. I don’t get out much and your videos help me to mentally and emotionally get out of here and explore America. Thank you again!
I've always admired you,but more now! Your strength and humor are wonderful.And you have managed to thrill me by commenting and I feel included!🤗 Thank you.
I started taking magnesium for my migraines.has really helped. Sorry you got the migraine but your new shoes are working out, literally 💕 your a trooper.
Always appreciate your honesty on the Hard times in the trail, scary times (RV ing) and every time you share your thoughts with us. You encourage everyone to be their Authentic selves, and not worry about glossing over reality to make things ‘look’ Better. Great editing BTW.
Wow you’re strength and determination are inspiring! Sorry you had the migraine but thrilled you ended up in such a beautiful camp. And the color of that lake water! WOW!
OMG, Carolyn. I'm watching every vid and it serms you've been in volcanic and/or burn area for SO long! I had no idea Oregon had so much burn scar. At least the burns allow an extended view. Glad your feet are better.
Carolyn....I have read about so many people disappearing off the PCT and the AT it scared me. My brother and I agree that you're the bravest person! We are anxious between each of your video's wanting to know that you're ok. God has his hand of protection over you! Amen!
wow the area with bare trees looks like it burned only several years ago. I see young saplings coming up at the feet of the dead trees. So much habitat lost. But other areas you found are full of wildlife. Beautiful
I’m so impressed with you doing this hike, walking on the terrain you walk on, I would’ve rolled down many of those hills and mountains! I hope you’re feeling better and rested. I’m loving following your journey. Take good care.
This is really beautifully edited - I love the mix of live sound with the overlay of music and your quiet thoughts. You've reached a new level of quality I think. Oh damn, I'm logged in under the wrong account! No wonder I had t resubscribe! Thought YT was playing a joke on me. The exhaustion and pain are clear in your voice, so the rest time makes sense - I think you'll come to whatever decision you made, soon in the series and we'll celebrate it with you - it's your life, we just cheer you on. Hopefully your nap and meds allowed you to wake pain free.
Oh, by the way - when those dead but beautiful trees show up, I think of Tree Skeletons. We have a lot here in Joshua Tree Nat Park that are twisted and sometimes black with yellow areas. They are amazing. But the white ones here are super special. Really cool.
I can't imagine hiking when I wasnt feeling well, much less with a migraine! A true warrior woman!!! Such beautiful scenery. I love it when you stop and just let us listen to the quiet. My favorite thing about the wilderness I think.
Sorry about your headache in this footage of your hike...no fun being sick. But you sound somewhat content and happy in this footage, which is better than before, so I'm glad, besides the headache, that you had a good day on the trail. It IS gorgeous scenery. God bless.
Sorry to hear you have a migraine. You are such a trooper, Caroline! Thank you so very much for taking us all with you on the hike- I just love the beautiful scenery. 💐
Thanks to you, I have been able to see The Tree Sisters, Mt. Washington and Mt. Jackson. Amazing. So sorry you are pushing yourself thru this with a migraine. Hoping you find the strength to complete your journey. Hugs.
#251 Good morning, Carolyn. My sense of balance would not allow me to hike that trail. You have taking some wonderful videos of mountains, etc. Great Escape, so Wonderful! Thanks!
Thank you ... Many of us on the East coastal area would never get to see these sights. I am Located in South Carolina close to the AT and Blue Ridge Mountains, the trail scenery is so different! Gorgeous trees and mountain laurel and rhododendron, flowering dogwoods, etc. but so much greenery that it is harder to see the views ... but awesome anyway!
Sounds wonderful. It seems that no matter where we are or which trail we decide to venture upon - Nature has something beautiful for us to see! Thank you for sharing Rose!
so crazy, I just watched Kate Cloud's video "Day 122 on The Pacific Crest Trail, 2000 MILES ! Mount Jefferson" today & it was her 2000 mile with rocks that she made was in this video!
It's so amazing how beautiful my state is. I'm in awh of what you've captured. It's time I get myself in shape to do this also. Thanks for the inspiration 😍👍
Hello, climbing with a migraine would have been horrific. If you do stop hiking you can be assured you have achieved so much that many of us could never do. You go girl I know you have inner strength. Again, I say this every time, Thankyou for doing these videos. You do not know how much inspiration you are giving to me and I guess many others. Stay Safe. I am really sending you love, hugs and strength. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
What an absolutely beautiful country we live in. Thank you Carolyn for doing all the hard work for alot of us who would otherwise never get to see this. I personally owe you alot of gratitude for sharing this. Thanks a million. 😊
WOW, so much desolation, then pain and then beauty. What an incredible range of emotions and scenery. This video was really intense at times. Hope you get some good rest and sleep. Thanks for sharing.
Man, these trails looked really steep on this day, I would definitely have been scared of that! Was waiting for this video, watching from my bubble bath!🤪lol👍🐶🐶💞
Thank you for sharing the beauty of the hike, and the reality of the drudgery of hiking this terrain. I'll never hike the PCT, but love the experience you have endured and shared.
You have done really good lots of miles a day. I have done a lot of hiking while hunting but not that many miles. You have to keep putting the next foot forward just think about that left right left. You should be fit and strong when you are done.
The land is so beautiful.the color of the water 💦 is outstanding. You have to know your limits. If you stopped, no big deal. You did what your body told you to do. Stop ✋. Why suffer? Just enjoy the beauty you got to see.
I'm so sorry about your migraine. Kudo 's to you for hiking with your head hurting. I just know in my heart you will make it to the end of your hike. Love the lakes, streams and beautiful flowers. Cute chip monk.
Wow, I would be terrified on some of those trails, because heights scare me, and my balance is terrible. Not great for a 48 year old. Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful journey you are on, Carolyn. I am so sorry about the migraine 😢. I have chronic migraine, and woke up hurting quite a bit this morning. I have so much to do (laundry, cleaning, cooking, etc.) but maybe I should rest? I can imagine you do get discouraged out there, but gosh, you are showing the rest of us that we can do hard things!!!! That white water creek and blue sky is breathtaking!! You are in my prayers, my friend. Much much love, Carolyn 💜❤️ P.S. We lost another one of our fur babies last month, our 10 year old pug named Charlie 😢😢. We are all (the kids, my husband and I) are going to be grieving for a long time to come. We are now left with one, Charlie’s daughter Lucy. She is so so sad too. We are giving her tons of extra love.
Oh my dear Carolyn. I pretty much cried though this whole video. Some for the sights and beauty of it all and some for the fact that you got one of those darn migraines. I needed your inspiration this morning. I woke up in pain as the weather change often dose to me. But I need to push through and get my chores done. As you well know living in an RV has its upkeep and I’ve learned to get it done and then I can relax. I’m going to meet up with another Friendly tomorrow! She’s someone who reached out to me after I posted a Help! In your group because I’m struggling with a transition from Windows to Mac. How cool that she would offer a free lesson and we get to camp near each other. Your fans are such groovy folks💕 As always your life gives me hope and courage to push past my self imposed limits and I’m so grateful. Safe travels sweetie and I hope to see you sometime soon 💓✌🏽
You are such an amazing role model for we single women who are adventuring through life!! Thank you for sharing your adventures and reality on the PCT!! I am enjoying every video.
Carolyn, feel better....and try not push yourself so hard. ☺ 18 miles in a day sounds like an aweful lot to me. I have never hiked myself.......but .take care....the body is talking to you. Some of the scenery is so nice and love the wild flowers too. ☺
Sorry about the migraine, but you found a beautiful place to set up camp and rest. Thank you for showing us all the beauty as you hike. I hope you feel better and managed to continue to the end of the trail.
What a beautiful place man I wished I cpuld get away abd experience something like that it's been awhile since ive been on here watching your videos. My dad passed away in april and I take care of my mom now what a way to get back to nature and God ty for the videos
Well Carolyn, I have the greatest admiration for you on this journey...your strength and determination to complete is amazing.... well done girl...am sure you will be so glad when it's over...You really are a tough cookie and amazing .....take care ..... I have migraines and know how gross they can make you feel...God bless and stay safe...xxx
You look and sound so tired and exhausted Carolyn....please dont put yourself through the pain...you have done brilliantly...and carrying that weight doesn't help.....dont torture yourself honey..xxxx
You made it much further than me with a migraine I would have wanted to just lay down. I have Meneires (lot of vertigo, migraines, light headedness, tinitus). You are amazingly strong and have the will power to keep pushing forward when I want to cry if carrying the groceries home from the store hurt my hands and I'm tired. The store is a mile from my place lol. Here you are walking so many miles a day. I realize now just how much of a baby I've become. I agree with Kate Bailey. I grew up camping in the Uinta mountains of Utah and hike short day hikes. I loved it and miss it very much. I would need to train for two years to do what you have done lol.
I suspect you're getting just plain exhausted. It's a really LONG trail! You've been such a champ! I've been following you on youtube since California. However you make it, you're a champion in my book!
Beautiful video shots and pics! Thank you for sharing your trip of the PCT! You have some nice camping gear and a very BackPack. I love hiking! I would love to be out there too! I wish you the very best of luck and well being. I hope your Migraine gets better. I get some bad head aches on the side of my head from a pinched nerve, I think and I find that tender spot on the back of my head and put pressure on it to loosen the tightness up and that helps with the Headache as well. Hang in there, persevere and be Happy! You've GOT THIS!
Migraines s***! Sorry u had one on the trail! I feel ya with that having them myself. I have meds too but try not to take them. I heard peppermint oil helps but I had gotten a *headache remedy * with some in it and not sure it helped all that much. Maybe straight peppermint oil is better? God bless you and ((Hugs)) Hope that's not weird. LOL waiting for next vid! 🤕😁❤
What a fantastic video! Your commentary, photography -one’s minds is spellbound with your journey! Love to you ----will keep u close in my thoughts-May u recovery quickly from HA.💕❤️🌈patty/Ms
You have an eye for natural beauty...it is absolutely a wonderful thing what you share with us by being so adventurest and strong ....from here you have already done an amazing thing no matter how far you go...
Dearest Carolyn: first, thank you for putting together this beautiful vlog. The scenery is fabulous, and so are the many shots and angles you put together just for us. Second, I wish I could take your migraine away. I know how debilitating those can be. Thirdly, please accept my fondest wishes, blessings and gratitude. I love watching your adventures.

Thank you Patrick - Glad you are enjoying the videos and the adventure!
Patrick O'Donovan I’m so sorry you have migraines too. They are very debilitating. I wouldn’t wish them on anyone. Hope today is a good day for you!!❤️💜
Proper Hobbit meals are: 7am Breakfast, 9 am Second Breakfast, 11am Elevenses, 1 pm Lunch, 3pm Tea, 6 pm Dinner, 9pm Supper.
what no second lunch lol
LOL. Love you bringing this up. Chuckles.
CAROLYN. One of the things I love about you is how you have always filmed the most beautiful Barron trees along your journeys I so appreciate that you see the beauty in these trees. You see the beauty in people as well and I always notice these things. Thank you for sharing all the unique people,places and things in this beautiful world we live in. I so appreciate you. Hugs
Without your video I never would have seen this part of my country! A BIG THANK YOU!😊
I am GLUED to her Vlog! Thanks for sharing all Carolyn.
Thank you for taking us with you on this beautiful trip. It means everything to those of us who can't do it to at least see what you can see.
What a beautiful reward you got for the endurance it took to get a fantastic camp area. I would have camped there for another day and soaked in the beauty! Nature heals the body, mind, and soul. Amazing.
Exactly - The camp was 'fantastic'! Thank you Life is Short - Make It Sweet
You are an amazing woman. When I have migraines I am worthless. I can’t be around light, smells, sounds. Especially out in the hot sun. You are something else.. ❤️❤️❤️
That's great your new shoes are helping your blisters! I hope some extra rest helps your head pain!❤ Beautiful views!🌲☀🌲

Wow! So much beauty today! Amazing views and meadows and water. I'm so impressed with the way you keep trooping in spite of the obstacles. Hiking with a migraine can't be fun, but you have such a good attitude! Thanks for sharing your trip!
Idk how you walked with a migraine. When I’ve had them I just lie very still in the dark. You are amazing
Ooooooohhhh, Carolyn! With each vid, I can feel the allure of your journey! The scenery is Achingly Beautiful, and I long to be there, too. The most appealing aspects for me would be the peaceful isolation and the tranquility of the wilderness. And it would be like reciting a mantra of footsteps and breaths, over and over.

Aww, Happy you enjoyed it daveogarf - Thank you!

I started taking magnesium for my migraines.has really helped. Sorry you got the migraine but your new shoes are working out, literally 💕 your a trooper.
cheryl campbell how much do you take? I am taking magnesium too, but not noticing a change yet.
@@loriadams7724 I take up to 1,000 mg. per day of Citrate, Malate, or Glycinate. Has helped a lot for my horrible migraines.
Wendy B thank you! I will look into that. 🥰
Always appreciate your honesty on the
Hard times in the trail, scary times (RV ing) and every time you share your thoughts with us. You encourage everyone to be their
Authentic selves, and not worry about glossing over reality to make things ‘look’
Better. Great editing BTW.
What kind of wild animals, if any, have you seen on your adventure? Your doing Great Carolyn, you got this!! ⚘⚘
Beautiful wildflowers and bumble bees. I agree, about the mystical beauty of the bare, sunbleached trees.
I feel your migraine and exhaustion as well. Rest now so I too can rest 😚😨. Beautiful pics! Thanks so much, Carolyn. Feel better soon. Xo
So sorry about your headache. I love that beautiful bumble bee 🐝. Again such wonderful things to see! Feel better! 🌲🌻✌️
So proud of you. Thanks so much for the majestic beauty you show me every single time I watch, truly awesome.
Migraines usually knock me flat. You are one tough warrior!! 💕
They are horrible, aren't they? But there was no other choice but forward... Thanks Karen!
Yes they Are! And bravo for your tenacity 👏👏👏💪
Beautiful country! Rest and be well!
Wow you’re strength and determination are inspiring! Sorry you had the migraine but thrilled you ended up in such a beautiful camp. And the color of that lake water! WOW!
OMG, Carolyn. I'm watching every vid and it serms you've been in volcanic and/or burn area for SO long! I had no idea Oregon had so much burn scar. At least the burns allow an extended view.
Glad your feet are better.
Yes, it is surprising, isn't it? Thanks Susan ☺️👣
Carolyn....I have read about so many people disappearing off the PCT and the AT it scared me. My brother and I agree that you're the bravest person! We are anxious between each of your video's wanting to know that you're ok. God has his hand of protection over you! Amen!
Summer of 2018 was really hot and dry Oregon, Washington and Canada suffered severe wildfires.
wow the area with bare trees looks like it burned only several years ago. I see young saplings coming up at the feet of the dead trees. So much habitat lost. But other areas you found are full of wildlife. Beautiful
The cost of the fires is so apparent in your videos, so sad. Thanks for taking us on a hike that we'd never be able to take otherwise.
Whoa, those switchbacks... and then agony of your migraine. You've accomplished so much. The edge of those cliff's made me shudder.👍💙💚💛
Thank you May Anne!
I can’t even imagine a migraine out there! I used to get them, not much after menopause tho, thank God! You are seriously my hero brave lady...
I’m so impressed with you doing this hike, walking on the terrain you walk on, I would’ve rolled down many of those hills and mountains! I hope you’re feeling better and rested. I’m loving following your journey. Take good care.
If only rolling down was an option haha! Thank you for you comment Life Unboxed, it make me smile! Take care.
Carolyn's RV Life please don’t roll or anything else down any hills!!!! 😉😉

Thank you thiz iz Liz - I enjoyed putting it together!
This video broke my heart, having a nasty migraine, difficult trails, spirits down. You have achieved so much & dang lady I’m super proud.
Beautiful🙌🏽🙌🏽 Watched this one with my son while we ate dinner. I hope the migraine subsided. Sending positive vibes your way😊✨
I can't imagine hiking when I wasnt feeling well, much less with a migraine! A true warrior woman!!! Such beautiful scenery. I love it when you stop and just let us listen to the quiet. My favorite thing about the wilderness I think.
Thank you for your comment Linda - Yes, I enjoy those quiet moments where you simply can listen to nature!
Sorry about your headache in this footage of your hike...no fun being sick. But you sound somewhat content and happy in this footage, which is better than before, so I'm glad, besides the headache, that you had a good day on the trail. It IS gorgeous scenery. God bless.
That camping spot was gorgeous!
Sorry to hear you have a migraine. You are such a trooper, Caroline! Thank you so very much for taking us all with you on the hike- I just love the beautiful scenery. 💐
Great shot of the lake and mountains! Blues and greens and Browns! 🇺🇸❤️😃
They are beautiful aren't they and the camera just doesn't seem to ever do it justice. Thanks Rhonda!
Thanks to you, I have been able to see The Tree Sisters, Mt. Washington and Mt. Jackson. Amazing. So sorry you are pushing yourself thru this with a migraine. Hoping you find the strength to complete your journey. Hugs.
#251 Good morning, Carolyn. My sense of balance would not allow me to hike that trail. You have taking some wonderful videos of mountains, etc. Great Escape, so Wonderful! Thanks!
Love you Caroyn. Relax and slow down and take care of you. You can set your own pace. No one is pressuring you. Love you dear.
Amazing photos! I hope you enjoy this video as much as we do. You’re skills floor me!
Thank you ... Many of us on the East coastal area would never get to see these sights. I am Located in South Carolina close to the AT and Blue Ridge Mountains, the trail scenery is so different! Gorgeous trees and mountain laurel and rhododendron, flowering dogwoods, etc. but so much greenery that it is harder to see the views ... but awesome anyway!
Sounds wonderful. It seems that no matter where we are or which trail we decide to venture upon - Nature has something beautiful for us to see! Thank you for sharing Rose!
Scout Lake at Jefferson Park is 5837 feet. Maybe you had a little altitude sickness. I'v had it and the headache was nearly unbearable. Hugs
Sorry about your migraine.. I am surprised you didn't have to stop sooner. I cant stand the bright light when I have one
Wow, you have way more perseverance than I. I have a lot but it almost seems like it's an inner struggle that is personal to everyone themselves.
The sound of water would soothe me and I'd want to stay
Wonderful!!!!!
So beautiful, I would totally relax my body and let it go
Your strength to continue is very impressive and all inspiring so, sorry you had a migraine on the trail.
You help all middle aged and above women! Thank you for your bravery!
Another great video. The scenery is beautiful. Thanks
so crazy, I just watched Kate Cloud's video "Day 122 on The Pacific Crest Trail, 2000 MILES ! Mount Jefferson" today & it was her 2000 mile with rocks that she made was in this video!
Was wondering the same!
Wow, how awesome is that!?
shinynblue love her vids!!-just saw your comment too😊
I said the same thing. Cool seeing the same spot so close time wise.
Kate didnt make that 2000 mile marker, she jazzed it up. She also went trough the area recently, Carolyn did this summer. :)
I can't imagine hiking with a migraine. You're very strong. ❤
I wonder if the higher altitudes affect your migraines??Love the photo i side your tent. Thank you for inviting us!!!
Feeling the way you are and watching you trek those narrow paths makes me hold my breath.
A migraine on the trail. My idea of hell. You are one strong woman.
Thanks Linda!
Linda L Miller you can say that again!!! Hope today is a good one for you. 💜❤️
Tree shapes speak to me as well. Love seeking them in the woods. Thanks again for taking us all on this journey.
It's so amazing how beautiful my state is. I'm in awh of what you've captured. It's time I get myself in shape to do this also. Thanks for the inspiration 😍👍
That is awesome to hear that you are inspired to get out and enjoy it as well! Thank you Ck for sharing your thoughts here!
Hello, climbing with a migraine would have been horrific. If you do stop hiking you can be assured you have achieved so much that many of us could never do.

Thanks Jamie - glad you are enjoying the journey!
Thank you. Still Loving the scenery.
WOW, so much desolation, then pain and then beauty. What an incredible range of emotions and scenery. This video was really intense at times. Hope you get some good rest and sleep. Thanks for sharing.
Watching you brew morning coffee took me back to one of the most enjoyable camping/hiking experiences
Coffee is amazing - so many times it is tide to good memories. Glad you were able to go back in time Forrest Osborn! ☕️😊
Migraines are the worst! I could not have hiked as far as you did! Good on you for going that far with a migraine!
Migraine? Oh hell no to hiking. Guess that is why i am not a hiker, anymore. Never was, long distance. You are definitely a "better man than i". Hugs.
i took one of your pictures for my wall papers thank you very much for that....
Hi Carolyn🙋 I had my coffee, with you ☕ Jefferson lake, is so serene ! Enjoyed the the different wild flowers! This is where God is ! Esther from N.Y.
What a beautiful set of shots on what must have been a hellish day. Thank you and well done. Amazing staying power!
Man, these trails looked really steep on this day, I would definitely have been scared of that! Was waiting for this video, watching from my bubble bath!🤪lol👍🐶🐶💞

Awesome views...I also have migraines and I know the pain. I would not have been able to walk two feet... Thank you for sharing.
Thanks Shawnee
Some of those views, wow they remind us how small we are and what a beautiful place we live in . Get feeling better , see you soon.
You are such an amazing role model for we single women who are adventuring through life!! Thank you for sharing your adventures and reality on the PCT!! I am enjoying every video.
Carry on, my friend, whatever you choose to do. 👍💕❤️💕
Carolyn, feel better....and try not push yourself so hard. ☺
18 miles in a day sounds like an aweful lot to me. I have never hiked myself.......but .take care....the body is talking to you.

Sorry about the migraine, but you found a beautiful place to set up camp and rest. Thank you for showing us all the beauty as you hike. I hope you feel better and managed to continue to the end of the trail.
Breathtaking views! Ok, I had a vision of PigPen from the Peanuts cartoons when you mentioned the dust kicking up. Lol. God bless.
Haha! That is funny - thanks for the comment riskybizness00
Right on Carolyn, through thick and thin, good, bad and ugly. Well done. Thank you for letting me be there with you.👍🌲🌲
Beautiful....thanks for taking me on your journey through your shared videos.

I have migraines and know how gross they can make you feel...God bless and stay safe...xxx
You look and sound so tired and exhausted Carolyn....please dont put yourself through the pain...you have done brilliantly...and carrying that weight doesn't help.....dont torture yourself honey..xxxx
You are a warrior‼️What a great shot when you are sitting on your break at the lake‼️💜
Thank you Sunny Rivers - Glad you enjoyed it!
You made it much further than me with a migraine I would have wanted to just lay down. I have Meneires (lot of vertigo, migraines, light headedness, tinitus). You are amazingly strong and have the will power to keep pushing forward when I want to cry if carrying the groceries home from the store hurt my hands and I'm tired. The store is a mile from my place lol. Here you are walking so many miles a day. I realize now just how much of a baby I've become. I agree with Kate Bailey. I grew up camping in the Uinta mountains of Utah and hike short day hikes. I loved it and miss it very much. I would need to train for two years to do what you have done lol.
Thank you for some beautiful views 🤗 my heart aches to see the extent of tree mortality in some places 😥🌲🌏
I suspect you're getting just plain exhausted. It's a really LONG trail! You've been such a champ! I've been following you on youtube since California. However you make it, you're a champion in my book!
I keep thinking Bears life there.
The sights are absolutely breath taking
Beautiful video shots and pics! Thank you for sharing your trip of the PCT! You have some nice camping gear and a very BackPack. I love hiking! I would love to be out there too! I wish you the very best of luck and well being. I hope your Migraine gets better. I get some bad head aches on the side of my head from a pinched nerve, I think and I find that tender spot on the back of my head and put pressure on it to loosen the tightness up and that helps with the Headache as well. Hang in there, persevere and be Happy! You've GOT THIS!
Amazing you could continue. Your spot it beautiful
Thank you Judy!
Migraines s***! Sorry u had one on the trail! I feel ya with that having them myself. I have meds too but try not to take them. I heard peppermint oil helps but I had gotten a *headache remedy * with some in it and not sure it helped all that much. Maybe straight peppermint oil is better? God bless you and ((Hugs)) Hope that's not weird. LOL waiting for next vid! 🤕😁❤
