  • Meet the hikers

    I have been listening to a few books recounting the PCT through hike experiences. Each one had a different take on it and I warmed to all of them even if at the outset sometimes I was not immediately connecting with the narrator. This podcats is a super complement to what I heard about PCT told in the snippet interviews with people doing it. So not only one person recount but voices, opinions, stories of others. It is really great. I hope one day I will share this experience in real myself.
