Finally the last stretch of the Washington section! 🚶♂️🔥 It was a wonderful journey, and your courage and determination to complete the entire trail is amazing! It is truly admirable to experience such a journey. You will be able to successfully complete it in the end, I am sure! Good luck on your next adventure! 🌟"

@hikingfans5678 It is very important to hold the audience in the first 5 seconds of the video. Adding interesting hooks or storytelling will increase the watch time. Your channel is bigger, that's what I want! 🚀 If I want, I can give you an free audit, so that it can be analyzed more deeply. What do you think? 😊 ”**

Great videos I’ll admit I’m a little jealous, seeing Washington that section looks awesome. If I’m lucky, maybe I’ll get to hike some of it or all of it this year take care. Look forward to your next video. I’ve watched them all.

These scenes are just so peaceful and soothing as you hike along and the music is just right. I am sorry you folks. and other hikers have had their plans disrupted by the smoke last summer. My son and his wife an friends went to the music festival/camp out in the Methow, last smmer. it was so hot, that they had to leave early, The smoke from the fires also was a concern that the roads back would be closed. it even got smokey where we live, in Snohomish County.. Thank you for sharng your trip ❤

The part about the downhills. I have always thought the uphills are not the hard part. Coming down slams the knees. But its all worth it. That section of the PCT is really nice but the William O Douglas Wilderness has all of the shallow lakes around Frying Pan and the associated mosquitos. So many bugs. Nice video.

I had to get off trail last hiking (2024) season as I developed tendonistis. (I made it all the way to Wrightwood and get off there.) Here I am again going to try to get the PCT done this year (2025), but this time I will start much further along as I've done from Campo to Walker Pass in years past. Amazing.
