An oasis for hikers in the desert
7 мая, Соединенные Штаты ⋅ ☀️ 22 °C
Made it to Warner Springs Resource Centre. Charging stations, showers and fruit! All the things hikers are craving!
ПутешественникHaving a short day, not a total rest day. Keeping decent time so far. Slower than other people but faster than I predicted I would be at this stage
ПутешественникYou’re going at Lauren-speed. This is scientifically proven to be the optimal speed .

Incredibly grateful to be offered accommodation at the beautiful Root-Stone lodge here in Idyllwild. Every campsite in town was full by the time I got into town. The lodge is offering PCT hikers aЧитать далее

Back on trail sporting cute new shorts

Off to tackle San Jacinto 🩷
ПутешественникVery cute shorts! Love the pink theme, have you worn through a pair already?
ПутешественникThe pink theme wasn't intentional but I do seem to have a lot of pink 😆 My other shorts were chafing my legs. Hoping these will offer better protection. So far so good!
Some moody weather in the mountains ⛰️

San Jacinto

San Jacinto looked like a little speck in the distance yesterday (see second photo). Now, all of a sudden, there she is, looking very close by.
ПутешественникStep by step, mile by mile. It’s amazing where we can go :)
Rough night, pretty morning 🌄
14 мая, Соединенные Штаты ⋅ ☀️ 10 °C
A new milestone out here, my first bad day. The elevation was endless, the wind was cold and strong. My tent fell down three times in the night but thankfully nothing is broken. The wind has easedЧитать далее
ПутешественникYea, have fallen into step with someone over the last week 😁
Snails pace
14 мая, Соединенные Штаты ⋅ ☀️ 7 °C
Today was painfully slow going. The side effects of my altitude medication really knocked me around. Fingers crossed for a better day tomorrow. At least the views were epic as I struggled my wayЧитать далее
ПутешественникNear constant peeing 😅 Between the tent falling down and the bathroom stops, I was up 9 times in the night. I was exhausted and probably severely dehydrated the next day
San Jacinto summit

Back on form today. A much better day ☀️

ПутешественникIs it bear country? In my head this is what bear country looks like? Haha
My first rattle snake experience 🐍
16 мая, Соединенные Штаты ⋅ ☀️ 20 °C
He didn't rattle until I was right next to him. I jumped and gave us both a fright. He continued to rattle at me as I hastily made some distance between us

Mission Creek ✅️
