Thanks for taking us along the PCT. Thoroughly enjoyed your AT videos, so really happy to see you were able to pull off this trip with the support of your sweet family! Sorry about the wind conditions last night.

[@patrickburling1849]

Frozen is back‼️ Thanks for taking us on the PCT w U 🥾🥾🥾

[@MarlinGawith]

That was a jack rabbit. Now you need to find a jackalope. 😂 i am so excited to watch your journey and all the all the PCT views.

[@AJKPenguin]

9:00 "There may be pain in the night, but joy comes in the morning." The colors so far are quite remarkable. And Leguna looks more like Tahoe. Thank you Jason for taking us along!

[@annettejuliepatterson9656]

I am enjoying the hiking without all the elements enjoying the views. Thank you.

[@tonybabcock655]

When you wake up in the morning and and realize today is a Frozen day🎉

[@ryanb3908]

Almost as good as farting in a Pringles can.

[@Luverofmysoul2]

Cause that's his trail name 😆

[@nancystephens7663]

I followed you on the AT and now PCT. Thanks for letting us tag along…and you carry all the gear.😅. Thank you for not playing a lot of goofy music for us. Just the nature sounds is all we need. The music sometimes is plain ol distracting. Stay safe and all the best to you on this journey.

[@gregharmon3797]

The quality of the videos look great!!!

[@olddudeonthetrail72]

Triangular plates?? Kooky. Wow, if you can get breakfast, get a new filter and do some charging, getting in & out of town in 2 hours, that's pretty good.

[@paulawebb700]

I'm so glad to c u on trail again ..I was with u every step of the way on the AT and now ill b watching every step on the PCT ..keep on keepin on..

[@cherylbarns-y4m]

Already an epic adventure. Views with a kill!!!! Hoping your journey is as “party group free” and continues to bring on your contagious smile. Awesome hare sighting. Narly cacti! Keep safe😊

[@Psychoticpea]

Born in Cali and moved when I was 18 to the east coast, VA to be exact. Went to visit and I swear I almost became a prune from the dry heat!! LOL

[@chonrae]

Soooooooooooo dry out west!!!!!

[@notquiteultralight1701]

As opposed to a prune ftom hiking through Vermont 😁👍🏼

[@jaymenna]

Those Sawyer filters jumped up to $45 on Amazon a few week ago. Don't feel like you got too fleeced.

Always wanted to do this… love that you are taking us all along with you.

[@sjldfilms5126]

So stoked!! Thank you for all your hard work to bring us along.

[@commonsgiant]

Great to see you back out on the trail!

[@JamieKrause86]

What a treat on a Sunday night, awesome views definitely seems a lot less ppl then the at so far and definitely a different type of terrain!

[@j.stephens257]

So glad you're enjoying the hike so far, hope it only gets better!

[@Bandit1379.]

I think you may have picked a good year to do this. California had a pretty wet winter, so not only is fire risk lower than usual, there is much more greenery than there might be otherwise.

[@bionicdan1959]

Great Vlog so far!! I'm really enjoying your travels. Smart move on replacing your filter. I got Guardia in 2022 and I was sick for 3 weeks. But you know what that's like! Safe travels!!

[@alexanderrcantu]

Love this series, excited to follow you on your journey. I’ll be sure to drop off some trail magic when your enter the cascades near Seattle

[@jimmac1953]

Love Hoka shoes my friend. Have a cronic forefoot issue and they have saved me!

[@uptrail7169]

I bet a shower would feel good. The wind was crazy!

[@potatothorn]

great days on the trail.. yeah i think less up and down on much of the PCT vs AT and the trails are generally very well groomed making it faster for you but it wont all be like that... you survived the desert winds and got a jackrabbit, that's awesome. thanks for sharing

[@rileyportera475]

Hey been watching since the warbonnet blackbird review. Pretty crazy your now up to the PCT. Keep going!

[@jasonf377]

While I really like the Sawyer squeeze, I picked up a platypus Quickdraw on sale for $23 and I’m really starting to appreciate the ability to test the integrity on the fly, and not constantly having to make sure I didn’t lose the little sealing gasket. Might be worth checking out if you can find a good deal…. Piece of mind if nothing else.

[@jasonf377]

**Peace** of mind, damn autocorrect😂

[@grantgrow]

At least the rattlesnakes are sleeping on those cold mornings

[@DaraSchafer-w1u]

Hokas have saved my feet. Not only do I have a nerve disorder in one of my feet but, I do 12 hour shifts and run my ass off (healthcare). These are the only shoes I wear for work or hiking. I swear by them.

[@FrozensAdventures]

I was going to switch to them but then I tried how narrow the toe box was even in the wide model.

[@garylindenmuth7468]

Good luck will be watching

[@bryanlevesque1012]

I’m sure it’s difficult to avoid the town vortex. I’d want to take a double zero at every opportunity.

[@joepeters5796]

Way to go ... prayers for your journey ...

[@vagabondwildernesswanderings]

Loving your adventure!

[@FacelessBookReviews]

Looking good so far...keep it up

[@terryweaver9770]

Frozen, sir, I’m just a grain of salt, but check out the Danner Trail 2650 shoe. Comes in a couple different versions. Cheers!!

[@trailingupwards]

Yeah, it can get windy there. It's almost better if it's 90 degrees than super windy and cold.

[@Curiousrambler]

Hoka Speedgoats ❤️

[@SinchuwusOutside]

Hey Bud, take a couple of deep breaths and enjoy the hike!!! Losing your ear plugs and forgetting about your water filter, rookie mistakes. Deep breaths, clear your mind enjoy your time out there!!! -dave

[@ktsevens]

Pack it Gourmet is Goated

[@geekyprojects1353]

7:30 Duke Igthorn

[@rickputnam8816]

Don't forget: you're waking up at 5:30 because you're on the WEST COAST. That's 8:30in Pennsylvania. You'll acclimatize in a few days.

[@ohiovetoutdoors]

I dont think I'm ever going to hear wind advisory and not think of deadpool

[@csalm77]

Dude! Those views!!

[@GoneFeralWithSquidly]

I know footwear is a very personal issue but the Hoka Speedgoats have been fantastic for me. 🦑

[@gooddeedsfishing8855]

Its hot as hell in western PA.

[@jeffboyer4204]

Hope ur knee is ok.

[@woodchip2782]

I don’t like the idea of the water filter on the end of a water bottle. It’s too fragile for that. The Befree is a better option.

[@FrozensAdventures]

It sucks it's not fragile at all. I haven't had a problem in over 1800 MI. Some people like to crank down the filter on the water bottle and that screws up the o-ring. It's best to just get it snug and lay off

[@floydmietus6624]

Did you hike with anyone yet?

[@claramullen]

I love the PCT views just don't stop.

[@kmcgoeshiking27]

Great vid!! Thanks for sharing , stay strong!!

[@Cindyscrossstitch]

Amazing he hasn't really seen people on the trail yet. 🌻👣

[@ryanb3908]

Samsquach.

[@maryh1421]

I first watched your channel when you did the AT. I have also followed several others who hiked the AT. The PCT is interesting to me because I have not watched anyone hike it so this is a first for me. I look forward to following you on this journey.

[@potatothorn]

this is going to be spectacular, very different views from the AT / welcome to the West!

[@bill8384]

I'm curious. After 3 weeks or so, how does the PCT experience compare/contrast to the AT?

[@chriskelly6559]

They are totally different, but they're both difficult.

[@33thewitt]

Fantastic content, as always, Jason!! The views are so amazing.

[@jannamozdzer4100]

If your knee is hurting going down hill you need to strengthen your gluteus medius, it’s not as strong as it should be, that’s where knee pain comes from, I’ve been there too. So excited to take this journey with you

[@ryanb3908]

Most like the medulla oblongata.

[@LordQuiche]

Have fun ❤

[@michaelknepler857]

I remember when thosr filters were $20.

[@AJKPenguin]

Pepperidge Farm remembers. : )

[@chriskelly6559]

No way! They were $19.99!

[@ryanb3908]

Can buy 20 Pringles cans for that.

[@michaelcahill6924]

As of 5/4/24 Amazon's prices now $45.99🤦

[@fireyourrocketts]

Is it possible to do the PCT physically unprepared or not very fit? would it take longer I guess instead of 5 months maybe 6 or 7 to complete as being unfit the hike would be considerably slowest?

[@cachemacstrailtime]

Another good episode. The Trailventure 3 pro is by far my favorite. Why do they always have to change a good thing.

[@DartmoorPaul]

Day 2 and loving your wonderful footage you are kindly sharing with us❤ As a non-US citizen planning to hike the PCT next year it’s particularly interesting to watch your resupplies and “in town” clips, it’s one of my big worries of whether to send boxes or not and where to and what’s to buy as UK supermarkets and US vary a lot (your’s are better❤ 🇺🇸 ) Thanks again and happy trails

[@garyblack2858]

Your channel came across my feed. Subscribed. Really like your style of filming and narration. I live in Washington about an hour from the PCT where it crosses White Pass. If I am not out camping and hiking, I can help you out when you come thru.

[@KM-yd5yu]

I enjoyed watch your show since the superior hiking trail hike in my home state. Big storm coming, Don't lose Gary, LOL.

[@williamscoggins6704]

Not sure if someone has said this before, but when you put your shoes on first thing in the morning you should really hit them on the ground, heel first toes to the sky, to make sure nothing has crawled in there overnight. You don't want to put your foot in and find out a scorpion or spider has made a bed in your shoe

[@ryanb3908]

Taste better if you warm them up in your shoes first. 👍

[@FrozensAdventures]

Yes I have been. I've seen scorpions critters I can't identify

[@ChrisfromFL]

I know you've been practicing with the tent for more that a year, but I'll miss seeing your camp with out a hammock!!

[@Animosaro970]

I remember that cycle of cold mornings to blazing hot days, I miss that

[@karenhennessey6366]

Even though I have watched you for years , I don’t know how you got your trail name?

[@TeamWoodsEdge_Falconry]

So glad to see you finally living your Dream! I’ve been watching you since your first day on the AT. My son andI hiked the “Triple Crown” wearing our “Outdoor Adventures” tshirts after being inspired by you. We met lots of people on trail that also follow you because of those shirts. Can’t wait to follow you on this journey. You’re my absolute favorite Thru Hiker!!

[@timg4800]

I came down MT Laguna in early April towards scissors. I was post holing in snow for the first few miles, then it eased up and back to dirt. Can’t wait to get back out there and continue my section hiking! Great to see everyone out there.

[@redrider736]

Have been a long time sub and excited for your PCT adventure ❤🇨🇦🤘

[@rocksolidadventures184]

Love the journey so far. I suggest getting Hokas. I have the speedgoat 5s. They are the best I have ever tried.

[@plainsimple442]

Looks more comfortable than when you started the AT?

[@Pfd51ff]

Thank you for sharing your hike with us!!!

[@8leggedinzane]

Amazing views 🥰

[@souljacker553]

Have you tried the Topo Unltraventure? It's also Zip Foam but a bit more stack height.

[@FrozensAdventures]

That's currently what I'm wearing in these videos and a few more videos I find it. It was the inp problems so no worries

[@souljacker553]

@@FrozensAdventures Ah, I thought they were the terraventures. I'm trying to try both out at REI but they barely have sizes in stock. Keep us posted, thx!
