I've always considered a Border wall hike from Campo to Tucson- Well Nogales then North. You would be the first to make the trek* Tbh a bit dangerous but what a journey.. I live in Yuma and have considered hiking el camino del diablo Sirra Vista To Yuma a common Bike pack route.. but a hike through that would be a first.

I love the concept of walking away from your own front door for such an amazing adventure and returning home still on foot! Looking forward to following along!

walkin’ home! good luck!

Best of luck. May the Trail Provide.

Wow!! Hope the trail is kind & your hike is a success!!

Thanks for the video. I’m really getting interested in the AZT lately, so appreciate these videos. I really like what you’ve done with putting both temps on the screen. Very cool. Peace and happy trails to ya. And good luck on that hike this year.

Sara! Great to see you on KZbin! I recently viewed your SOBO on the AT and a few updates since. 7K miles! Wow! I'll start watching to see how it goes. Between you and Captain Jack (He's doing a "yo-yo"), you've got me motivated to do a SOBO starting in June. Planning and training continues. Wishing you great success, happiness during this next adventure!

Hi Sara, I just subscribed. That's quite an adventure you have planned. I hiked the PCT in 2018. I was laid off work Nov. 2017 and half-heartedly looked for a job before my start. I'll be retiring soon and plan on hiking the CDT this year. I hope to start the trail nobo May 4, maybe we'll see each other.

Excited to follow your trip!

As someone who will be 67 next week and spent the last 9 years dealing with the aging parent thing, I say you go girl!!! Enjoy yourself & buy some bear spray!

So huge! I hope you get some rain down there. We did a short loop of the azt-get-skit in December. We found a lot of dry springs in the mountains. The BLM ranger claimed there was no water flowing between klondyke and the Gila river. Lots of cows out though.

Wow this should be spectacular. I’ll be cheering you on all the way. Be safe. Thanks for sharing.

Awesome! Just subscribed and look forward to the adventures!

I'm new to your channel. Looking forward to your adventures!

Look forward to it.

This is very exciting stuff. I followed you on your AT hike. You will handle this no problem.

Just came across your channel. Immediately subscribed after seeing this video. Cant wait to follow along! Wishing you all the best! Happy trails! My adventures pale in comparison to yours but I share on my KZbin channel my hikes as well. Cheers!

Go for it. Good luck

🎉 I’m in!!

Wowzza! You rock, can't wait to see how it goes!

Right on. Can’t wait to follow along. Peace and happy trails to ya.

Sara, this is so freaking cool! Best of luck!

Nobody cares, the hiking community has become an incessant display of one-upmanship. Tons of people can hike 5,000+ miles in a year. It’s nothing special.

Holy moly, insane and an amazing adventure ahead. Have a wonderful journey.

Ok been there in the AZT

Looks like you're near colossal cave.

I wonder if since your main goal seems to be to hike the CDT and PCT together, if maybe you couldn't simplify it just a little bit and just start at the Southern Terminus of the CDT and finish at the Southern Terminus of the PCT. That would still be a lot of miles for one year, but would eliminate some of the back tracking you would have to do. Anyway good luck with your plans. 😎👍

Awesome! Thanks for sharing.

Oooooh I'm excited!! I now have 2 ladies doing 7k plus miles this year to watch!!

I have a suggestion. When you arrive at the Northern Terminus of the CDT, do an assessment of how much time you have left in the year. If you are short on time, you may want to catch a ride over to the Northern Terminus of the PCT and immediately start hiking South in order to complete the Sierras by October 1, 2025 when the chances for Sierra Snow begin to increase. In other words, the goal is to complete the Sierras during your SOBO PCT hike before snow season begins. Anyway, you don't need to decide this now, you can decide this later. I am so excited for you and I can't wait to follow your progress on the trail. Whoooohoooo !!!!

Good plan Sara! 66 yo now, wished I would have pursued hiking more 35 years ago. Trying to cram it all in now, but my body is fighting me the whole time. Plus it hasn't helped that I've been smoking on and off most of my life.

Wow! Bear spray for the cdt.

Holy cow, I never heard of that. BEST OF GOOD HIKING WISHES!

I am so excited to follow you along! The start date will be here before you know it.

You'll have amazing adventures and we'll enjoy following along. Thanks for sharing!!

Sara, I am so excited for you & Raf... you are going to do amazing! And very happy for Raf to work on his stuff too! Yay!!! Don't forget your bear spray 😅

Wishing you all the best! Looking forward to your next adventure 🙏🙂

Good for you! You're going to have some good stories for the kids/grandkids in the future. I'm new and still working my way through your AT hike. I was wondering just the other day what I was going to watch while on my step machine when I'm finished with that one. Now I know! Congratulations on your decision to go for it. You have all my best possible wishes.

Yay, good luck! 👏👏

"7000 miles. And grizzlies." Holy cats!! Have fun!

You're still a young woman!

Sounds like a good plan. I'm 73 and wish that I had hiked the AT. My son now has to look after me. Enjoy life while you can. Happy Trails. Good Luck, Rick

OMG I am so excited and so thrilled for you! I can't wait to follow along and cheer you on🎉😊

Wild but looking forward to following you !!

Thanks again, Sara. Your uploads are always appreciated.

Too short of a video. Merry Christmas. Good Luck, Rick

Thanks again for the upload, Sara. I always enjoy them.

Nice video. Happy Trails and Holidays. Good Luck, Rick

Thanks for the video, Sara. It's appreciated and enjoyed. Seriously makes me miss home.

Sleep with your gas can and your water filter and they'll work when you need them to. I did the trail in the spring and only did that a couple days. Great hiking though.
