I laughed while watching at work when I saw my name and the sign pop up. I looked and said, "Umm.....'" Yeah not a chance I could. LOL
Btw, I love the windmills in the bay.
And...I've caught up!
If you don't like excessive heat, I would apply for a PCT thru hike permit in March 2019. We had over 100 degree days, up to 120F in many of the PCT southern portions of this trail this year and we've been having 88F plus degree temps now in November 2018!!! Esp. if we don't get the snow pack, this coming hiking season will be the worst for heat and water sources on the trail. Additionally, I've been camping, hiking, and driving out to many of the southern California PCT locations, and the fires were really devastating - my sinuses have been suffering from all the black dust from the fires and toxins that the fires released into the air. You would ideally want to get out of Hikertown (where I was a few days ago) by early May next year.
Phoenix Genesis - yes heat is a major concern for us, especially me as I am very susceptible to heat stroke and it is one thing we really can't prepare for here in the UK, where temperatures rarely go over 82F. We are definitely hoping for a late March permit to give us a better chance of getting through the desert in one piece.
Heidi Stiene Yes, I am shooting for late March as well this year. The fires have made everything so much worse this last year. Right now the sky is covered in thick orange smoke from the Malibu fires and my whole house smells like smoke. And I live in Glendale, about 30 miles away! And we’ve had temps in the 90s F in November!!! Crazy!
I think I am going to hike across the pond after the PCT!
Hi thanks for watching .You are from the USA ??? .its a bit more wet here /but i watched a USA hiker do the END TO END this year and he had really good weather // catch him on you tube ///Bucolicaholic/// and Captain Dan he did some walks in Scotland .What hike are you thinking of doing
thanks
LIVERPOOL HIKER'S I am from Oregon, USA. Not far from the PCT. I have not done much research on trails in your part of the world yet since I'm getting ready for the PCT next year. What trails would you recommend?
@@JasonStClair hi how much time are you thinking to walk
LIVERPOOL HIKER'S For the PCT I am planning on 5 to 6 months. So I am willing to hike anything up to six months.
@@JasonStClair - well, with that timeframe in mind you can probably do every long distance trail in the UK :-D. Joking aside, though, the bigger LDTs here are between 200 and 300 miles long and by US standards pretty tame (ie: resupplying is usually not a problem and you are never too far away from an exit route. We're on a small Island ;-)). Trail maintenance, however, is something usually left to people's boots and sheep, so a lot of the going is tough and a good amount of 'trails' consist of a signpost pointing into pathless grassland or bog and saying 'good luck'. The 'End to End' Brian mentioned above is only around 1500 miles, and that walks the entire length of the UK. It isn't a trail as such: the aim is to walk from Lands End in the South West corner of Cornwall to John O'Groat in the North East corner of Scotland, but everyone chooses their own route, usually by combining a lot of existing LDTs. We are thinking of attempting that in 2020, though we may turn it into a 3 corners walk by going to John O'Groats via Cape Wrath, which is the North Western corner of Scotland. The Cape Wrath trail is probably the toughest LDT in the UK, not so much for elevation or length, but because it is extremely remote, often trackless and pretty boggy in places. 'Hounds of Howgate' just put an excellent daily vlogging series of that trail on his UA-cam channel, which will give you a pretty good idea of the best and worst this island has to offer in one handy trail. He is very, very Scottish, though - if you are not used to the accent you may struggle to understand him at times ;-). Sorry, that was a veeeerry long answer. If we bump into each other next year, we'll gladly chew your ear off some more about all the bog the UK has to offer :-D
