The Frozen PCT thru hike series is finally here!! Wooooo!
Most anticipated sequel ever
Godspeed Frozen - and a tip of the hat to your wife and young family for making this happen!
Yes Mrs Frozen is doing a lot back at home!
Love your new intro! Your trail excitement is infectious and for those of us who cannot get on a trail-it’s a pleasure to share your experience! Thank you!
5 years in the making! Thanks for doing this !
Has it been 5 years? wow. Good to see him hiking another long trail
Yup 5 years it took to get here through a pandemic and massive inflation but I made it!
Dang! I swear that smile stretched all the way from the PCT to the AT! Been watching others in front of you. Looks like you are in a good window for weather at higher altitudes coming up soon.
Happy hiking Frozen ☺️☺️☺️👍👍👍🥾🥾🥾
Great intro, I never relized the PCT starts out that freaken beautiful. Rewards go to those who are bold.... Really would you ever imagine sitting at that desk 10 odd years ago that you would be in the California Southern Border experience the PCT, wrestling Rattle Snakes soaking in those magical views. Awesome stuff.
10 years ago I would have never have thought I could be here.
I’ve mentioned this before to you in previous vid comments and on your Lives, but your AT thru-hike documentary A JOURNEY OF THE SOUL was my initial inspiration for my own potential AT Thru-hike for next year.
Let’s get this brotha! I’ll be with you ALL THE WAY!!!!!! 👍🏻👏🏻👊🏻🙏🏻🙌🏻⬆️
His Journey of the soul Doc was my initial inspiration to thru hike the AT as well. Hopefully mine will be next year, if not, for sure in '26. Thanks Frozen!!!

I'm so happy for you, the wait is over. It's so exciting seeing different landscapes and plant life. Enjoy every moment!
The sheer EPICNESSS of that intro 😍 can’t wait to follow you on this journey!
I watch your videos on the Appalachian trail. Went to the desert this spring I loved it.
Safe travels! The new intro is good. Your joy comes through clear; enjoy the trail. I have no doubt you'll make it out of California!!😁😁
So happy to see you doing this. Welcome to my neck of the world. I remember when you were going to do the AT someone told you that you wouldn't make it 200 miles. You proved them wrong and your videos are fantastic. Hike on!
Wow I love the new intro. Your smile tells it all. Have a wonderful time out there stay safe.
So exciting to see the beginning of the trail! I love that you're noting the different plants and animals than you're used to out East, and sharing them with us - it's reminding me of how I felt when I first moved West. And that snake in the first five miles - glad you were ready!
Huge fan here!!! You’re AT hike REALLY helped me through my first full year of sobriety. Still happy and sober! Frozen, you look so happy and it makes me happy to see you so happy!😊
I did see some hammock options on night one and two….😂😂😂
Just kiddin!!🤣.
Stay safe out there buddy!
NQU
Congratulations on your sobriety!!! That's a huge accomplishment 👏
@@wandering_butnotlost thank you!
I walked the Washington portion several times in the 60s and 70s. Just happy to have found your videos to see the rest of the trail. Now retired in Thailand 😅
I can’t believe it’s finally here, frozen AT blogs are giant reason I started hiking.
Woke up this morning on top of a mountain WITH cell signal, which is rare where i live (Québec, Canada) and i get to watch the 1rst episode. You got me into hiking, thank you!!
Enjoy your beautiful adventure!!
Been waiting 4 years, since I first saw the AT video, for this video to drop! Good luck my man 💪🏼
The rattlesnakes seem to love you. From the Smoky mountains to the PCT. Lol stay safe.
He won’t make it out of Georgia 😂😂😂
😂 in this case I think you are right.
yeah what a dip.😂😂
We are rewatching and this time.I'm gonna be paying more attention to where you're dropping the boxes at, and Where your resupplies are.
I love that ENTHUSIASM!!!!! You are one happy hiker!
Looking forward to your success.
I don't know if you are going to include in your videos some moments from places you visit (lunchtime, resupply etc.), I would like to see them too.
Yeah, would love to see that as well.
Noted
I like the new opening
Congrats J! I’ve been waiting to watch you hike the PCT since the day you announced you were going to attempt the AT! I can’t wait to see you in Cascade Locks!
Man I’m excited to follow u through all of this!!!
Great to see you back on a thru-hike!!! I'm looking forward to watching every episode. Best of luck, be safe and most importantly have a shit ton of fun!!! -dave
Incredibly eventful days! So happy to be following you on this adventure.
Pumped the videos finally started man. Can't beat those western views. Enjoy
Absolutely gorgeous work my friend! Shots and editing are fantastic! 👏👏
👍 awesome, great footage as always , happy exploring the PCT !
At work we serve ramen (uncooked) crunched up over salad with chicken. Very popular, because it's so good! I am so glad you are doing this trail (and showing food!). I followed you on your AT hike. This is going to be your ultimate hike. Go for it, frozen! Excited to follow.
Great to see you out on the trail again
Happy for ya! And some serious appreciation due to your family back home supporting you!
Glad to see you back on the thru hike!
Had to start over and watch it all again!! I miss the camaraderie between you and bigfoot!! :)
Love seeing a good Ole adventure. Keep it up!
And so the new adventure begins. Man I would be so full of jitters with everything so new and different. Its exciting for sure. I b watchin.
Im so glad I noticed you were finally hiking the PCT! I followed you on the AT and you were my favorite vlogger!
Love the new intro
I am so excited to watch this adventure. I loved his AT adventure. How quick time flies. Wishing you much success on the adventure 🌻👣omg a rattle snake already😂
I was so excited to see the bell for the new episode! It has been so long since your last and I am so hyped to watch you on this journey. I am happy that your wife has always been so supportive of your hiking even before she became the wife. She is a beautiful person and so are the children. Thanks for sharing your journey so that an oldy like me can dream through you.
She really is perfect
Started watching about a month before your AT, 5 years now the PCT, admire the dedication & preparation you have shown! Really does highlight the sacrifices needed to just get to the start, best of luck! Curious to see what your avg miles per day will be. Thanks
Happy hiking Frozen!
Good luck Jason, be safe.😊
on the PCT!! too cool you got a rattler that fast/it did not want to move either wow, and a chopper landing... yeah usually not a good sign when you see them low in the mtns/ you sure look happy to be out here, that's awesome. off to a great start! thanks for taking us with you
So excited for this. I've watched your AT doc 5 or 6 times. Support from CT. 🌲👣🏕⛰🌲
Man! Glad to see you back in action! Good luck and looking forward to watching your trek videos.
I'm very happy for you and that your first couple days on the PCT went well. That's a tough climb up to Mt Laguna. Please don't throw rocks at the snakes like you did. I've seen snakes maimed and killed from people doing that. If anything, just stomp and scrape the ground to get their attention. I'm looking forward to following your hike!
That was my thought as well, especially the second rock. Some pebbles or a small stick are more than enough if stopping and scraping aren't doing the trick. One wrong bounce and rocks that size could easily kill the snake, which I know wasn't Frozen's intention!
Very much this. No wonder it was pissed. There’s no reason to harass wildlife. We’re lucky to visit their home, but it’s their home first. Canada will still be there after the snake moves on.
Wow you look happy! I am excited for you!! How freakin’ awesome!!! Wooohoo! 🥾🥾😎⛺️😂
Lets go! Safe travels Frozen!
Great to see you again!! Good luck!!
Woah, PUMPED for these!
Frozen! Love the new intro. You're hiking in my old stomping ground of SoCal. Enjoy this hike; I'm looking forward to watching you get to Canada! Happy Trails!!!!
I'm really happy for you and I'm sure the rest of us are too!
Every time I hear the intro music it takes me back to watching you hike the AT. Good luck, Frozen!
Frozen, I am so excited for you. Started watching your channel a long time ago, seemed you were just getting started on this hiking stuff and I loved watching your adventures. Loved watching you hike the Appalachian Trail and the wonderful experiences that changed you into the new you. And now here you out west in my territory! I would love to see you in the Oregon Cascades if ever I could but we'll see. Life as a 77 year old grandmother is very different. My 2 grandsons hiked the PCT 4 years ago and loved it. God bless and keep you every step of the way. I'm excited for you! 👋🙂❤️🙏
Outstanding start!! Great video good luck keep on trucking!!!
YES! I can't believe it's already happening, good luck I am excited to share your journey
I am thrilled to see that you are on the PCT and thank you for taking us along for the ride. 😁❤
Congratulations!!!
You remind me, or he reminds me of you, of a PCT thru hiker many years ago, trail name Chocolate Balls. All about the smiles just being out there. Good vibes your way, Crackerjack.
The intro ROCKS; looking forward to watching the rest of the videos for the PCT! This gets me excited for my small, little 5-day hike in Colorado in August!
that genuine smile and excitement when you started the hike was so real. good luck on the adventure, man! stoked that we're along for the ride!
Welcome to the west coast.
Stay safe. Have fun.
Been following your channel a long time, I have been super busy lately and I'm just starting to watch this journey now. Cant wait to catch up on all your videos! Wishing you good luck on the PCT from NJ.
Well, I followed you all the way along the AT so I'm happy to do likewise with this new adventure of yours. Have a safe and rewarding hike. Stay strong - in mind and body. I know that you can do this.
Thanks!
Thank you!
I hiked the PCT in 2017. Your Black Forest Trail videos are part of the reason I got into backpacking. Congrats and good luck!
Congratulation man! So good to see this dream realized. Never was a west coast hiking fan but I must admit, all the water and the beauty you've shown makes me think I might enjoy it. Just not in a dry year.
I have been following you since you started the AT and love that you are sharing yet another adventure with us, this time in 4K. I LOVE the new intro graphics! The HD version looks really good too! Keep up the nice work / vacation. 😂
This is awesome,I watched your Appalachian trail hike like 10 times each episode.fro some reason I typed in frozen walker the pacific crest trail cuz I remember u saying you're gonna do it 5 years and sure enough,your video popped up..
Just started watching. I did the PCT in 2021-2023. Older guy so trail injuries took their toll. Anyway, I plan to watch you through to the end. Saw something interesting in this video at about 18:10. I have an Altaplex and have set it up by staking the four corners before setting the pole. I think this is zPacks instructions. Anyway, your method of the back two followed by the pole seems to give a tighter set. I'll try that on a hike I have planned in Southern IL in October. Best wishes for a successful hike!
Whoop whoop!
Great new video opening!
I’ll be watching for you in hat creek!!!
That might be the most beautiful smile at the start of any thru hike i have ever seen. Looking forward to following along. Sending prayers for an exciting trip.
The adventure begins. So awesome to see your radiant smile. Don’t overdue it too soon. Make sure to take care of yourself. New into pretty spectacular
Heck ya, Frozen! Thank you for taking us along with you!
Oh man, I’m late to the party 😢 Great to catch up though and only 2minutes in you have made me smile and improved my mood for the day. Your smile is wonderful and infectious and WILL alone get you to Canada 🇨🇦 ❤ Happy Hiking and I can’t wait to watch your journey,. Thank you so much for sharing.
So excited for your PCT journey. I began following you five years ago when you hiked the AT. I really enjoy your videos- they are extremely well done. Thank you for taking us along.
Border wall in the background. Love it! Happy hiking Frozen.
Don't worry about mountain lions. The roving packs of coyotes keep them under control.
Frozen, you are one of the reasons I started hiking and backpacking in the first place. I cannot wait to see more of the pCT and journey on it.
Last fall, I was in San Diego and did a small section from the terminus and it is quite amazing, not like anything I’ve ever done.
Rock on man!
I have been a long time follower of you before you ever did the AT, and I cannot tell you how happy this makes me. Your smile and excitement is contagious and I am hoping you have the most amazing PCT adventure. I did a backpack in the Sierras in October and it was my first time out west and it was the most amazing experience. I can’t wait for you to continue to experience all the beauty around you.
It’s finally here! You’re finally there! Have an awesome time - can’t wait to get caught up! (Thank you so much for sharing!!!)
Congratulations on the beginning of your adventure. Thanks for taking us along.
Ive watched you since your AT hike.
You have grown so much since then. It shows in your actions and your fantastic attitude.
Be careful and happy trails 😎😎😎
Glad you’re finally in this trail. Look forward to following along your journey. Thanks.
SO EXCITED FOR YOU! I didn't get the notification it dropped and watching both episode 1 and 2 now!
man, that intro is INSANE!! wow, super badass... cant wait to watch this video man, happy for ya man! here you are about to hike 2600 miles and I'm trying to do a small week long organized hike in Norway this summer and pretty scared/nervous to do it. uggg
Hell yeah! So excited to see how this journey unfolds for you. I still remember binge watching your AT series in early 2020 and seeing you propose, now you've got a little family and everything! Who knows what the next 5 years will bring.
I’m so excited you started the PCT! I love the way you documented your journey on the AT and can’t wait to follow along your next adventure! Sending good vibes for you!
Been waiting a few years for that intro and a new hike 🤘🏻🤘🏻looking forward to this series.
Frozen, you are definitely one of the hikers I will be following this year. Have a great time on your hike. Hike on, hike safe🍺☘️🍀
Welcome to the west coast!
So glad your up and running, iterally! Be safe and hope you enjoy this adventure!
Hey Frozen! I just was told about your channel! I live in the Johnstown area... I watched the LHHT series loved it! I plan on hiking it this fall. Good luck as you hike the PCT. Ill be following !
