Rachel GuerreroWith the PCT right around the corner, it is time to zone in on our training and for this blog’s sake, more writing! We were able to an obtain a long distance permit and will be starting in Sonora Pass on May 15th, and ending at the Canadian Border, August 10. Now, being new to the backpacking we are estimating an average of 12-15 miles a day for starters. If we wanted to complete the trail by August, we would have to be doing 24. It would be a blessing to continue through August, but for school purposes we must stop. This being said, we may have to return to Washington the following summer. This may be a blessing as we could avoid running into blocked paths due to snow.
Our goal is to be fully equipped this week so that we may begin training with our new gear this month to ensure it is ready for the trail. More articles and workout coming soon.
With Love,
Miss Rachel
