The grain in the sunrise shot. Just golden!! Nice work. And the rock worn down by generations!! That gave me goosebumps.
When I work in the wind, in the high desert my throat always gets the way you described yours. I have it right now. It's planting season and the wind is a howlin. 1 Cepacol will kick that throats ass. FYI, I had my first date with my Wife in Idyllwild.
Your photography and narration keeps getting better and better.
It's just amazing how lush, green and blooming the "desert" can be, such a paradise! Love your close ups, they have poster quality, big thank you for your hard work to bring us daily enjoyment of the trail!
Looooooved the view of the fields with the cows and the mountains 😍
You're dropping videos really quick this time! I'm here for it and be safe out there, y'all!
The tree at 4:35 is a Manzanita or Arctostaphylos. The flowers are small which make it difficult for insects to enter for nectar/pollen. The flowers evolved to be buzz pollinated by native bees which release pollen when a bee buzzes its wings near the flower. Evoluationary facts like that blow my mind all the time while hiking and getting to know moreabout the native fauna. Manzanita is also in the Blueberry family (Ericacea) which means most flower morphology is similar throughout the family and helps with plant identification.
My guess is Pringle Manzanita (Arctostaphylos pringlei). They start becoming common just about there and through the San Jacinto range. It looks like it. However, a lot of manzanitas are pretty similar. It could be one of the many types of Eastwood Manzanita. PCT hikers will see manzanitas of various species pretty much along the whole trail.
The flowers and fruit are also edible. The fruit has a lemonade flavor to it, but it is difficult to process. I only grabbed a few to see what it tasted like.
@@michaelb1761 Hmmm... are you sure you're not thinking of Lemonadeberry (Rhus integrifolia). They look a bit like manzanitas. Those *really* taste like lemons. They grow in the same chaparral habitat.
@@stevenvarner9806 no, I live in the Sacramento Valley of Northern California. I'm quite familiar with Manzanita. 🙂 If you take the ripe red berry and separate the powdery "flesh" from the large seed and husk, it is slightly sweet yet lemony tart. You can look it up if you like; manzanita berries are edible. Then try some when the berries are ripe. I'm sure you can find info on foraging sites or books.
Is this the new Kelly? 6:30AM? I love it! What a beautiful sunrise. Beautiful video. Enjoy 😊
Love your journey….you two are the best! Pray for you that you are NOT getting sick.
2:53 is such a good shot
Those fields were stunning!
Awesome photography of spectacular scenery, especially the sun through the wheat shot (or whatever it was). I was also impressed by the long sections of flat hiking. I'm glad it's not all torture.
Some awsome shots of those meadows it really captures the moment. Happy Trails
So cool to hike along the cows. Awesome footage.
Bet that was awesome
Awsome video. The trail looks fantastic Thank you thank you. ✌🏼
Glad you got up early the shots from the field were beautiful.
Early morning hike, the best!!
That was a good day! Y’all made out at Mike’s Place … yippee for trail angels😊 Hope that throat gets better soon.
The trail looks beautiful. Toastie takes very good care of you.You two are os funny. Happy Hiking 🏜🌵⛺️🥾🥾
Gah! Sore throat!! Foreshadowing what I know is coming!!!!! I hope you both feel better and are back on trail!
Exactly what i was thinking. I wonder how many of those hikers ended up with COVID.
Yep, read on Intagram.
Hey Kelly! I love early morning miles especially with a killer sunrise! So great having Toasty in the videos so often, going to be so different when he’s off trail for the bachelor party. Cool info about the mill stone. I love seeing things like that in the landscape. In case it’s something you may care about, try to be mindful when using the term “native American”. Most native people prefer to be called by their specific Tribe name or “American Indian” or “Indigenous American”. I know on the reservation my family lived on (Crow Indian Reservation in MT) some of the Tribe had a big issue the term “Native American”. Just thought you might want to know. So cool to actually get to meet Mike! Heard nothing but good things about that place. 🙏 Thanks for bringing us along today. I hope tomorrow’s miles are kind. Keep truckin’ and be well.
-Grateful
Thanks for the insight Grateful I had no idea. I actually recently found out I’m over 30% indigenous American from a dna test! I plan to do more research and learn more about that part of my heritage when I have time!
@@kellyhays23 do you know what tribe? That’s so cool! I hope you guys are well. Thanks again for everything 🙏
These kind of things change. However, many of the tribes in southern California actually call themselves "mission Indians." There is a reservation right next to Eagle Rock called "Los Coyotes Band of Cahuilla & Cupeño Indians." The Cupeño people lived in Warner Springs itself until the white settlers and the state forced them out in the early 20th century. Many went west to the Pala reservation. The PCT area farther north in San Diego and Riverside Counties was mostly Cahuilla and Luiseño (Payómkawichum) people. All six Luiseño reservations use the word "Indian" in their titles.
It's too hard to keep up with the nomenclature of various people. We're all homo sapiens, for better or worse
@@scottslotterbeck3796 🌞😊😁
Keep on keeping on! Love the Native American grind stone! I have found a few of those around Greers Ferry Lake!
when u took ur 1st break in the field & took the pictures, the cloud behind u looked like a cruise ship or a large yacht.
Always cool seeing stuff like that rock where the native Americans smashed the acorns! The cow was Stout 🤣
I’m not sure if y’all seen that video on tiktok of the girl that was hiking and the cow attacked her badly but she had surgeries on her face and jaw and everything! I had no idea cows could be that dangerous but just be careful y’all! Much love and blessings ❤️
Oil of oregano is great to avoid getting sick. you two are a great.team.
Obsessed with the cows 😍 🐄
You just talked to those cows so sweet. Keep trekking. 😀
Hey K
Always enjoyed your journeys ever since the AT
Question; are you or will attempt the triple crown?
That creek gets in many people's videos! Pretty area.
I find people like Mike absolutely baffling and amazing. What is their life like, that they can do things like this?
I think you're just behind Tiki Bird Tracy, maybe a few days. If you ever meet up, you'll have to try to remember to show us! It's always fun to see those moments 😊
I think Tracy is going by the trail name "Condor" on this hike.
How long have you had those trekking poles? I have Diamonds too and I am wondering how long they last. I always worry about the clamp that adjusts the length and the parts on the inside breaking.
Got them in New Hampshire last year on the AT! I love these poles!
This is an odd question that I’ve not seen answered on other thru hiking videos , how do you dig a hole if the ground is frozen? You don’t have to answer if this is too odd.
I don't hike when the ground is frozen but I'm guessing that they can turn over a large rock and then replace it or maybe the ground won't be so hard to dig under a rock or fallen log. You could ask some of those who hike in winter when there is a snow cover to see if what they do in a case like that.
I’m watching you and ‘The Blazin Bakers’ - she’s ahead! Mind u she has had some fun with snow near San Jacinto. You might need some spikes…
get used to the openness its a theme on the PCT
Nice video with some views, so let's keep on hiking..
6:25? Try 4am....like every weekday....I can't even sleep past 6:25 on the weekend :) Good thing the local breakfast num-num joint opens at 6:30...
...that way I can get my morning lasagna....wait, what??? No, pizza......doh! EGGS, that's what I like, EGGS!!!
...your influence is being noted...
Did you pet the cows or did you keep mooooving.............ha ha ha 😂
So Kelly I a met an Arkansas woman and since you left perhaps I have to compensate for your absence and move in and become and Arkensian immigrant.
Oh the beginning of the c19. I was wondering when u got it.
Why crush that whole area for breakfast.
Crush what? The gravel we were sitting on? This is literally an old roadbed. The 100s of cows living in this area were busy crushing this area for us, anyway.
They actually milled the weath and cook breakfast with it. That is why.
I love your videos you're getting scenes that most PCT through hikers don't film, yes there are the obvious ones but you get shots that I haven't seen before and I've been tracking hikers for 4 years. Keep it up the great work! to ''Canada and beyond'' 😃🏕☕
