Love your videos. I watched them as you hiked the PCT, then a second time through after you finished. Thank you for the work you put into them and for sharing them with us.
Awesome! I am excited to see you on your new adventures. I figured you might do the CDT eventually, hotdog! I miss your PCT videos already so will look forward to your CDT. And the castles treks as well. Heal up quickly my friend. 👍 Hike on 🥾🥾.
Wonderful to see you out hiking again! Happy belated birthday to you 🎂. Looking forward to seeing your castle videos, I love castles. I've actually been to one of your famous castles - Caerphilly. Take care - Sandra from Roseburg Oregon.
As always, such a pleasure to see another video from you. Happy Belated Birthday, Merry Christmas, and Happy New Year. Sorry to hear about your injury, but, trying to see the bright side, so glad it didn't happen while you were on the PCT! THAT would have been a tragedy. Concerning some issues we discussed while you were on trail, I will send you a note on Messenger to your facebook account. Please take care of yourself. Hope you are off to a good, healing start in 2023!
Hi pal. Yes in the last month I could feel like it was only a matter of time before something gave way. Luckily I made it to the end! I just tried to do too much too soon when I got back. Oh well! Hope you are good 😊
Good to hear an update from you SL! Heal that foot and get lots of rest. I'm thinking about doing the CDT in 2024 as well. Let me know if you're ever back in the US and want to hike from harts pass! -Starboy
Hello Young Starboy! Ha that would be excellent tbh, I’m not sure when I’m going to fit my PCT gaps in though. It would be amazing if bumped into each other on the CDT 🤩
The Cambrian broke me a few years back and it's been eating away at me ever since. Keep jogging around Bailey Park and you'll be back in the hills before the bluebells
Get well quick. The Cambrian hike sounds awesome. Glad to see you back in production. Truth be told we like watching your videos as much or more than you like making them!
Hope the prep is going well. If you get a chance watch End to End with George Ezra - it’s him and 2 mates walking lands end to John ongroats. It also has a lot of guitars
Looking forward to seeing your videos from the CDT in ‘24! Watching your PCT videos cemented my goal of hiking the PCT, and now I will start on 28. April attempting to reach the half way point in 3 months. Can’t wait!
Merry Christmas and Happy Boxing Day to you! Sorry to hear about the foot, with rest you will be good as new. Happy birthday and best wishes for 2023. Thanks for taking us along!!
Good to hear of the stretching bro. I stretch for swimming and the hiking. We're not getting any younger - but hey good on the pull ups. All the best with the injury and upcoming plans. Many of mine were thrown out the window because of injury - like you hope to be fit this year. Darren (Daz) is a top bloke. Well, all the best out there. Mark
@@LordQuiche No I haven't been doing well. I've seen the specialist and am hopeful for late spring. Yeah, chomping at the bit. Hey, nice one. All the best on trail. Love it!
Hey LQ, thanks for the shout out. The Cambrian way looks amazing, really tough, maybe tougher than the Cape Wrath trail. I've been watching snowy matrix do that and it does look hardcore. You will do it I'm sure. Well done on completing the PCT that was epic and your videos will help me plan it when it comes our time. Happy new year bro, hope your foot heals quickly, onwards and upwards.
Hi mate. Loved watching your PCT and apologies if youve already mentioned this before but could you tell me what the approximate cost would be to hike the PCT as a fellow UK hiker? Get well soon and happy birthday
Hi dude. Realistically you’re looking at between £10k and £13k tbh. America is really expensive at the moment. Huge inflation and gas prices. Supermarket food is surprisingly expensive… I budgeted 9k and got caught out!!
Love your videos. I watched them as you hiked the PCT, then a second time through after you finished. Thank you for the work you put into them and for sharing them with us.
Thanks Kirsten. I’m missing making hiking films so much. As soon as I’m fit again I’ll be filming though 🤩

Thanks pal. I’ll get there!
Great to have an update. Thanks for all the videos. Rest up that foot and focus on some upper body and core strength training.
Thanks Chris. I’m doing a bit of swimming an pull-ups but just dialling it in really. I’ll start taking training a lot more seriously now though…
Great to hear the update. Exciting news about your plans, esp. the CDT! Will be watching…
Thanks for the donation Jeff! I’m thinking I might give out my Garmin and other benefits for the GoFundMe folks. What do you think?
@@LordQuiche Certainly, if you think it would help the fundraising effort. As for me, just happy to chip in a bit for the benefit of following along.

Thanks Sandra. Ive actually never been in Caephilly castle, im so ashamed! I think itll be a good series, backpacking to and from Castles?

Oh dang what do you think were the main difficulties to watch out for?
Cambrian Mountains and Southern Snowdonia require respect. The rest is a walk in the park
Happy Boxing Day! Speedy healing vibes coming your way! Glad you made the video! Enjoy your holiday! Cheers! 🍻
thanks Earlybird x

Hi Steve. Oh that’s interesting, I will definitely check it out 👍

Nice Ivo! Go get it! Anything you need to know just get in touch…

Aww dang. You doing ok at the moment Mark? I’ve upgraded all my gear, I’m ready to hit the trail, it’s so frustrating 😂

just get in touch if there's anything you want to know Tubba :)
@@LordQuiche Thank you I will do.
Bummer about the foot. Guess it’s core and upper body time😊. Love your videos and looking forward to your future adventures. CDT NoBo or SoBo?
My pull ups are coming along! Probably NOBO but I’ve not really investigated it yet tbh…
Yo! It’s great to have you back and I’m sorry to hear about your foot. Happy 50th Owen. CDT!! Whoop! Enjoy Wales xx
Howdy! How you feeling, nervous??
@@LordQuiche more excited at the moment. I think the nerves will hit a week or so before. Eek!
Merry Christmas and best of luck for 2023. I wonder if your body kept itself together for the PCT. Then said ‘I need some time off!’
I feel like that is exactly what happened!

I budgeted 9k and got caught out!!
@LordQuiche - Sparkle Lizard PCT 2022 Many thanks. Hoping to do the the PCT myself in 2025
