Hiking the Pacific Crest Trail

my first born is hiking the PCT. he managed to call me on Mothers Day, anyway. Yesterday, he posted this. The Hermitage is tracking his progress and has it on a map in the book store, which they have also been posting to their FB page. Go Brendon (PCT15@wordpress.com)

  • Allow the son in me to come out - Pacific Coast Trail is an entirely different trail then the one I'm hiking. Currently I'm hiking the Pacific Crest Trail. Love you Mom.

    • Yes, he is lovely ... even with the beard, and especially that long, thick hair!

  • Just noticed the stone formation in the foreground.
    That's a nice photo, and a nice greeting.
    Good going, B.

  • How cool is that? What a perfectly lovely greeting from a first-born. Agree with HolyCowGirl, looks like you did a great job there. I can never seem to keep the two trails straight in my head, though I think it's the Coast Trail that runs through my neighborhood. Not entirely sure where the Crest goes. So great to see the young 'uns out there getting into the natural world.

  • How absolutely lovely oh all fronts! Handsome young man, mom, photo, effort on the trail.... right on

    • Jeannie, last I heard he was in Bishop, but that was days ago! He has his anticipated schedule up on his blog at pct15.wordpress.com he said he was pretty much on schedule.
