Hi! My name is Janean (or Twiggy on the trail) and I’m currently hiking the Pacific Crest Trail. I am having the time of my life and I’m so excited to share my adventure with everyone. Here I hike from Campo, to Lake Morena, to Mount Laguna, to Julian.

I’m hiking with my daughter in 2024. Glad your dad could do the first 20 and he will be watching the vlogs. Can’t wait to follow along and also create memories with my daughter in 700 days on the pct :)

Refreshing, trail sounds, birds, the crunch of footsteps, the scenery and no music.

That’s cool, a snake and a Chinese Spy Balloon spotted on your first 12 miles of hike. If you have a tiny dab of honey for the exhausted bee, they recover in lightning speed. Good luck 👍🏼

YT just suggested this to me, I guess because the class of 2023 is hitting the trail now. And your start date was the day before my birthday. ^_^ Happy almost PCT anniversary!

Dad, and Daughter of the year!!!!!!!!!!! Dads are great, at 69 years old I have so many regrets that I was never able to become one. Anyway I've watching many of your videos further down the PCT, and finally am here to see your wonderful start. I just love the respect you give to all critters big and small. That poor little Bee made a big mistake not staying with you on your hike. So hike on, I've already see you finish, you are such an awesome young lady.

The footage you captured of getting the little one out of the algae and then of the moment she took off after drying out was magical!! I hope you have many such moments of great memories as you head North. Have fun out there!

Shout out from B.C. Canada. What brought me here was my research on the "Vancouver island spine trail" - I spotted Pacific Crest Trail in your title in the selection of videos presented by youtube and thought 'what is Pacific Crest trail? haven't heard of it' Now I know. Pretty sweet. I am an avid hiker and kayak enthusiast. Thanks for sharing your journey and all the best on completing the trail!

Pretty much never really alone on the PCT, but tickled your dad is hiking with you for a while... Appears to be a bit windy out there on day two... Lake Morena and hopefully the Malt shop... Your snake friend appeared to be a Rubber Boa (real name)... Snow, slowly melting but still plenty on Mt Jacinto and in the Sierras... Day 7 and in Julian for a resupply and Nero. SAFE HIKING

Ahh my son started around the same time you. His friend that was supposed to hike with him left him behind. He is in Julian today (April 21st) resupplying. I was amazed that your channel came up on my feed. I sure hope he runs into some nice ppl like you seem to be (the part where you helped the bee was so adorable and kind). So if you see a tall blond 20 something guy by him self ask him if his name is James and tell him his mom said hi (omg that would be tooo funny) Good luck ..im going to follow you :)
