This site documents preparation for, and progress on, a long walk on the Pacific Crest Trail, including decisions made before and during the walk.
Everything here reflects one person’s experience under specific conditions. It is not intended as instruction, advice, or a recommendation for others. Conditions on long trails change constantly, and what works in one place or season may not work in another.
Any descriptions of equipment, routes, timing, or decision-making are observational, not prescriptive. Readers are responsible for their own planning, judgment, and safety.
This project documents preparation and progress as they happen. Plans will change.
