Pine Tree in the Wind

c) Andrew Carter, 2021

Wind is the norm on the PCT. Good thing I don’t seem to lose interest in watching it blow the trees and the grass. That may change if (when) it gets cold.

I just completed a multi-year thru hike (MYTH) of the Pacific Crest Trail (PCT). It took three years. I hiked 1840 miles in 2021, 733 miles in 2022, and 122 miles in 2023. The only reason I had to hike in 2023 was a wildfire closure at the north end of the PCT in 2022. During the past two years, I've also thru hiked other, shorter US trails. I hiked the Benton MacKaye Trail (GA, NC, TN) and the Tuscarora Trail (VA, WV, MD, PA) in 2022 plus the Ozark Highlands Trail (AR) in 2023. I hope to hike the Long Trail (VT) next year and the Colorado Trail at some point in the future. Please note, all content on this site is copyright.

  1. Isn’t it great to have the time to actually notice all the everyday details happening around you all the time?! Life often gets so busy that we just don’t notice the simple beauty of the wind blowing through the trees. Thanks for sharing.
