    That's so cooooooool!! Will see you hopefully on the trail since we are finally hiking the PCT as well this year. We will be starting the 14th of April. So exciting! We will be creating a UA-cam series as well about the PCT. Can't wait to follow your journey along. Good luck and see you on trail!

    Best of luck on your hike. I live in San Diego County. The good news is there isn't any snow in southern California right now, the bad news is that it also hasn't rained, so many water sources as of now are not available. Hopefully, we'll have some rain in the next month and a half. The chaparral is normally green and flowering by February and March. - If you don't want to pay for the pricey shuttle service, it's very easy to get to the terminus from the airport in SD via public transit on *weekdays*. Total cost is $12 for a day pass that includes the easy San Diego Trolley from Old Town to El Cajon Transit Center, and then the Rural 894 bus to Campo. A free airport shuttle takes you to the Old Town Transit Center, and there is a Big 5 sporting goods with gas canisters a 15 minute walk away. If you've never been to San Diego, consider chilling out there for a few days. It's amazing.

      Thank you!! I actually grew up in south OC, about 2 hrs north of the terminus - but honestly I’m screenshotting this info to share for others who can’t get a personal shuttle from Mom to the trailhead! The lack of rain is shocking right now! I mean, there’s been bad years for sure, but this is pretty nuts. I went hiking out in Catalina last year when it was so rainy, and it looked like Ireland! Not gonna be the story this year. I’m definitely preparing for long water carries from the get. I hope at least Hauser has some water, but we’ll see. Thanks for all the info!

    Super informative video. Thank you! I’ll be hiking Catalina in May of 2025. Couple of questions: 1 - did you road walk from Avalon to trail head on day 1? 2 - on the stretch between Two Harbors to Parsons … was it an out-and-back on the ocean side, or did you do the loop? (my current plan is out-and-back) … thank you!

    • @brookeinboots
      @brookeinboots 4 дні тому

      Have fun!! The road walk from Avalon to the trailhead is maybe 15 minutes. There’s no cars really on the island, so walking is your only option. Super safe! I did it as an out and back from two harbors to parsons along the coastal road, but it is technically a loop, I was just too tired for any more up and down! Most people I met did the road, but either will get you there! Hope this helps and have a great hike!

    Great information did Zion about 20 years ago did Bryce, Coral Pink Sand Dunes and Zion brings back memories. Don’t forget Kolob Canyon which is part of Zion but not connected to the main canyon it’s an amazing place to visit quite different from the main park.

    • @brookeinboots
      @brookeinboots 9 днів тому

      Totally agree! Kolob is a great addition to the list. I went there for the first time on my last visit (only briefly) and it's absolutely worth seeing if you have the time and want a quieter side of the park. LOVE Coral Pink Sand Dunes! I have a Kanab video coming out in the next couple of weeks too - it really is a spectacular place! Thanks for the watch and comment!

      Thanks for the concern, but I’m one of thousands of women who solo hike every day! I take my safety very seriously, but every stat proves that I am much safer in the outdoors than in a city. I’m also a former criminal prosecutor, so I’m even more aware than the average person about the risks, and still think that the rewards are absolutely worth it!

    • @LaurenRoerick
