Day 5: Mt Laguna to Laguna Campground (42 – 47.5)
We waited for our first resupply box at mount Laguna and since the post office didn’t open till noon, we took half the day off. Stretching, eating and watching the Acorn Woodpecker. 🙂
Day 4: Fred Canyon to Mount Laguna (Miles 32-42)
Day 3: From Lake Morena to Fred Canyon (miles 20-32)
We stayed at Lake Morena campground and started from here on day 3.
Day 2: Miles 11.2-20 Lake Morena
The first night was wild – a skunk sprayed close to us – we must have set up close to his nest – luckily our gents didn’t get any smell. We also heard dear falling over our guylines- so we didn’t get too much sleep.
Day 1: From Campo to somewhere Miles 0 – 11.2
Pacific Crest Trail
After month of planning and prep I started my biggest adventure yet – I am thru-hiking the Pacific Creat Trail! 🤩
All good things must come to an end
Anchorage: not the capital of Alaska, that’s Juneau (the only state capital you can’t travel to by car!) but the biggest city of the state. 40% of Alaskans live here. You’re still in the wild quickly with the Chugach mountains on its doorstep.
Denali National Park / Omne trium perfectum
Oh, the excitement to visit this national park was big. But could it really impress me after all the amazing national parks we had just visited in Canada and Alaska? The short answer is: yes it could. Not just that, I got really really lucky. Three times. 😻
