Itinerary

I goal of this hike is not to crush miles; it's about going with the flow and seeing where the trail takes me. That said, I have done a lot of prep work making food, sending food packages, and researching the trail, but I won't know specific dates for where I'll be and when until I find my rhythm and see how it goes.

I'm hoping to post as regularly as I can along the way, which will give you a better idea of where I'm at and ETAs. Stay tuned!

Here is a map of the entire trail.

My goal is to:

START: August 14 Crater Lake, Oregon (mile 1820) 

END: Kennedy Meadows (mile 702)

I hope to walk 25-35 kms/day. If it looks like weather is getting bad, and I won't make it to the High Sierra Section before the snow flies, I will probably skip a section in Northern California and head to Sonora Pass. Forest fires could also be a factor that would force me to skip sections of the trail. I'll be following all trail closures here.
