As my PCT came nearer my greatet fear was that my arthritis of the joints, right knee and left hip would prevent me from walking.

Путешественник I‘m curious if you could sleep well in a really bed? Most of us PCT-hikers (I‘m „Apricot“ from the class 2021) don’t sleep as good as in the tent 😉 Idyllwild is a cute little town, enjoy 😊.
Путешественник Enjoy the civilization 🍺 well deserved after this suffering 👍

As I get closer to 3000m, the slopes get steeper and wilder, and snow fields start covering the already stony and difficult trail and making navigation really hard.
