    wow what a bunch of huge milestones! 1000 miles walked is huge but you have worked extra hard for them. Huge snow year and steep elevations with a heavy bear can on your back. But such gorgeous country! I love the sierras. 2.2 lbs is how much my two person tent weighs. Leaving gorgeous Yosemite. Now you are headed to another high point of Lake Tahoe. I know you enjoyed that. Thanks for posting

    I live in Reno and am from the Truckee area. This lower half of the Sierras in the past several videos is soooo beautiful but I'm so excited to see you get further north. I'm so lucky to live here 💕 I go camping near Sierra City every year and love to see PCT vloggers go through that area. Glad to catch up finally!

  • @johneason6540

    Wow, I just started watching you show the foot wear and gloves that you have used. Then I start watching video after video of you and Nick doing this crazy walk-hike-ordeal. You really push yourself. I would be taking my time and maybe ten miles on any given day. But wow you two really push the envelope wide open. A friend at work is always walking and he walked some trail in Spain about a year or two ago. Now I see why he is always talking about the next hike that he is preparing for. Wild stuff. Please take care and thanks for the adventure. Now I have to get off my sorry fat behind.

    A real contrast in scenery coming out of Yosemite. Reminds me of working in the outbacks, WA Australia. A heavy cell would often go thru and wash one of our crew out while 5km up the road the other crew never got a drop - happened often. Congrats on the 1,000 mile mark Mari 👍

    I know that the snow must have been hard to hike in but it made the mountains extra beautiful, which you captured so well in your vlog.

    Hi Mari....I am a recent subscriber to your channel. I found it after watching number of Andes treks in Peru last month. UA-cam showed your vlog on the Milford trek , I enjoyed the trek and the rest of your NZ travels along with your trusty sidekick Nick.
    I am enjoying your PCT travels what next the Salcantay and Inca trail trek ?
    Happy trekking !!

    Nick's face looks slimmer after 1000 miles. I was going to ask what you do with the bear cans once you're done but you answered it at the end. I had no idea you could rent bear cans. Now I know!

    I have a silly question! I’ve been wondering, when you’re doing a thru hike and you want to ditch gear, do you mail it to yourself or just leave it for other hikers? I’m assuming you mail it to yourself bc getting rid of gear could be super expensive if it’s still useful for another hike.

    Hey Mari! How were you able to follow the trail with all the snow??

    • @mari.johnson
      @mari.johnson  4 роки тому +1

      A lot of times there were other footprints already in the snow to follow (couldn't always be trusted though), otherwise we used gps on a phone app. And there are trail markers too :)

    this is all nice and great music. but what about trash, what about your personal trips to the detriments or poor people fighting for live. travelling is polluting all the time and that seems to be your role?

    • @mari.johnson
      @mari.johnson  4 роки тому +2

      I think thru hiking is probably one of the most eco-friendly ways of travel out there - besides the use of plastic food wrappers, the overall carbon footprint is very small.
