Күн бұрынIn this video I describe some of the dangers and risks that I ran across while hiking several hundred miles of the Pacific Crest Trail desert section earlier this year. I also share the ways I dealt with or attempted to mitigate these risks.

I read somewhere, Mother Nature is neither good nor evil, but merely indifferent. Thanks for the video Jon.

There are many kinds of yuccas here in Southern California. The beautiful Joshua Tree is one of them. The worst injury I ever saw involving one happened to a hiker bushwacking in the dark who fell into one on a hillside. Yes, they are like swords. That said, we have some in our yard and they are lovely. Glad to hear you only had a relatively minor injury.

Rattlesnakes don't always rattle when you are near them.

Location where you experienced those crazy winds?

The first time was the second night on trail, so maybe about mile 30. There were others nights that were windy as well. I can't recall the exact location, although pretty much anywhere out there can get windy.

The biggest potential threat is probably drunken idiots letting off gunshots around campsites at 2am 😅

Poison oak is the worst! I got it on my hands and went pee out in the forest. My penis swelled up like a beer can and I ended up in the ER. Ugh.

Yup, just a bit. It was something we all talked about on trail. “Why is everything trying to kill us!”
