Hiker will leave the trail but trail will never leave hiker, what a nice ending quote

Trail names are dumb. Gear obsession is dumb. Tramlies are dumb. This all a bunch of people with extra time and money playing survival, most stay in freaking hotels or shelters along the trail lmao every other person on the trail holding up a selfie stick for social media, it’s all a joke.

I have hiked the pct for five years , 1700 mikes, taken 10000 pictures and made twenty movies.. you have a creative blend of pictures dialogue narration and music. You fuse all these necessary pieces together to tell the story of what your film is about… it took me many tries and lots of thinking time to string together those words and concepts to describe the what and how of a making a PCT film. Kudos my friend…you nailed it…I wish we would have met on trail… Froggy on the pct…my trail name and KZbin page

I hiked with YardSale and Nikki for a day or so out of Silverwood Lake. And I believe that you and I were at Hiker Town at the same time. I recognized most of the people you hiked with.
