Pacific Crest Trail. ~MONDAY MORNINGS~ Life on trail was simple. Even waking up. We never used alarm clocks because why? We wanted to escape our routine lives.. Here's to waking up cheery and bright eyed each day!

Pacific Crest Trail. ~POST TRAIL LIFE~ Coming back to reality was fun for me in the beginning. I got to keep my beard and hair for the first week and enjoyed being free to eat and shower as often as I wanted. Now that we're back and a few months have passed, we can't stop thinking of the next big hiking adventure. The hair is gone but the forest is still alive in us! We're tinkering with our gear and throwing around ideas for another big hike in the next couple years.. So stay tuned friends..

Elfin Lakes. . ~BEAR WITH ME MATE~ On our trip to Elfin lakes this fall, we encountered a total of 12 bears! This big guy was right outside the shelter and didn't care about us at all! Once I was outside he started to walk away, probably because I smelled. Showing is so overrated.

Pacific Crest Trail. ~PROBABLY POISONOUS~ So else remembers all the wonderful mushrooms in Washington? They kept us busy trying to identify all of them while providing hours of conversation in town. Don't remember these ones, but they reminded me of jelly candies, probably poisonous though..

Lynn Headwaters Park ~DAY HIKERS~ So we lived long enough to become the villain. Lora and I enjoyed a pleasant day hike with our best mate @pig_in_butcher into the North shore mountains. Here we discovered some secret mines from nearly a century ago. The biggest surprise of the day was the discovery of an entire camp! Along the way we had to climb this very stable but scary log crossing. Reminiscent of our time in the Sierra Nevada. @go.wing.it looked like a pro the whole time.

Pacific Crest Trail. ~LIQUID DREAMS~ Here's a picture of a silty stream in Mt Adams national forest. I didn't drink out of it, but it had a cool blue hue to it that stood out. That area had a ton of cool streams and lakes and was one of our favourites hiking through the state.

Sunny day for a self arrest

So we headed out for the day to Seymour Mountain for a little practice on our self arresting skills. Lora and I walked away with some valuable skills!
