PCT 2018 Day 90 | The Day Shredded Pork Won The Day

Day 90 of my Pacific Crest Trail thru-hike.

“Is this what discipline feels like? Cuz I don’t like it.” Quote of the day. 💙 it.

[@williammoore4646]

Another great video, beautiful scenery and talking to the animals. Shredded pork, beans with tortillas and a homemade cookie, Starburst you are in your element and must be charmed. Be safe, be alert, and may the trail angels keep their watch over you and your adventure.

[@Kurwynd]

One thing we really like about your videos is that you are more about the journey instead of the destination. So many people post videos where they have to be somewhere by this date so they are constantly pushing forward and not taking time to look around and share the scenery with us. Thank you for your videos!

[@Josephhikes]

Enjoy your videos, you always say something that makes me laugh. “Is this what discipline feels like ? I don’t like it ! “😆😆👍

[@djsomers100]

Epic comment. My new favorite saying... Is this what discipline feels like......

[@Mtnsunshine]

Joseph Doughty Lolol.....I agree. This is a classic! Will have to print it out for future use somewhere. 😂

[@evelyndyer721]

Just doing the trail means you already are disciplined!! You're courageous! 💚💚

[@shaftermike]

I love that you take time to pan around you to show the bigger landscape that you're moving through. Sonora Pass area is one of my favorites...

[@rockytopwrangler2069]

Beautiful scenery,,good to hear you're crossing paths with good people..can't imagine hiking without a stove,,todays' equipment is so small and simple,and you are in direction of cooler to cold climate, a break with a hot drink,(tea or cup of soup,etc.) can be a huge morale booster..thank you for the trail historical info plaque,, lets those of us not there know a little more of the trail system ..appears the foot problem isn't bothering you for now,at least not mentioning...until next video....Stay Safe and God Bless....

[@Mtnsunshine]

Yay, Magnito! What a generous person to share that fabulous meal. I'd say it was also the Universe rewarding you for staying on the trail. Very cool.

[@tootsla1252]

The wild flowers!!!

[@waynejanik9668]

[@mikebrewer8116]

Thanks again for sharing your videos. I really enjoy them. Be safe and happy hiking.

[@CheatDayKerry]

"is this what discipline feels like?" .... made me laugh. Your doing great. Been following since beginning.

[@djsomers100]

I think that marmot is following you!!! Thank you for another great video. I look forward to every one of them. I don't know where you get your cheerful disposition from but it is contagious.

[@Mtnsunshine]

I so look forward to every video you put out, WW. Thank you once again for the great and beautiful video work and the entertaining conversations!

[@juliewood6513]

Your doing great. My dad an I will keep rooting for. You.

[@frankfowlkes7872]

Keep up the good work Starburst!

[@LenserX]

I was starting to waffle on my commitment to join the PCT class of '19 this morning- then I saw this. Thanks again for the inspiration.

[@Lue_Jonin]

Really beautiful view at the ending. Was hoping for an update on your foot injury.... Sure hope its not hampering you. The precooked pulled pork sounded awesome. ✌ 👣 👑 👑 Food discipline now ...you'll get to go crazy on chow once ya meet up with your family 😀 NOM NOM NOM hahaha.

[@johneason6540]

Great panamanic views again, beautiful wildflowers. Look easy trail walking. You are close to your goal, family time. You got this. GO STARBURST! I know Echo lake, use to camp there in my scouting years.

[@Mountian-Zen]

Oh ya you n Magneto rock! Excellent video ..... Again. The panorama of the flowers was beautiful.

[@LifeintheUP]

I love following you along on your journey. The scenery is beautiful! Thanks for sharing.

[@richardf7087]

Nice video. Really enjoyed seeing the wild flower meadows. Not sure if I could give up my morning coffee. Keep hiking.

[@BeeGeeHikes]

If you had a little stove, you could drink hot coffee every day, I need my hot meal, even if it’s just once a day. I hope you’re feeling better and recovering from your foot and hip pain.

[@AstheMagpieFlies]

I love love love your attitude through this whole trip! I love your sense of responsibility (like with the bear containers), and I love that even when you're not 100% having fun you still look at things from another perspective, last but not least I freaking love your love for nature and your interactions with wildlife! Anyway, been watching for a while and just felt the need to let you know, that you're rad and I'm rooting for ya!

[@irenehodupski5712]

[@LMicheleS]

Hope the foot is better - gotta love the sunset at the end. You ever get tired of seeing so many amazing sunsets? ;)

[@johnmcneeley]

What's with all the Mechanical Engineer Thru Hikers?:) Besides you and shredded pork guy, I know of a couple other well known hikers that left jobs behind for the trail. Both John Z, and Dixie are Engineers.

[@robertrockwell7581]

[@tucsonwilly]

Breathtaking vista, I'm sure the camera does not do it justice. thanks for sharing. By the way is that a "Sandlot" shirt you are wearing ?!!!

[@docholliday5439]

What beautiful scenery!!! 😇 🌟 😇 🌟

[@ronaldrose7593]

Hello Starburst, hang in there Dear. You are making good progress. Please be sure to take good care of yourself out there. 🤗

[@lostbear442]

Spirit building is beautiful thanks for sharing, HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY

[@extremelydave]

Starburst, you have no clue how cute you were when in your little girl voice said you didn't like discipline...... Could'a hugged you!!! NOW, do you think the Sierras will make it impossible for you to ever walk normal on flat ground again???? Man!! It will be interesting to see how you do on the flat sections of Oregon and Washington!! You'll tear up the trail I think!!!! Thanks again for sharing your trail life with us..... : )

[@I_Am_Michael]

more great video(s). thank you for sharing.

[@lostbear442]

Have you tried to smoke Sage for the mosquitoes, it works good

[@professorsogol5824]

Discipline, motivation and morale are three sides of the same coin, and, to mix metaphors, morale is the leg the others stand on. An army marches on its stomach so I think you need to talk to your quartermaster and ask for better supplies. Cold mashed potatoes; that must get old fast! You've got over to a thousand miles into those legs, so I'm sure you can carry a little more weight in stove, pots and food, and a hot meal at the end of the day will do wonders for your morale.

[@hilaryrenee2728]

I wish I could reach in my phone screen and share my meals with you❤ even though this was last yr..I feel like I'm there with you! Ill make you a killer burrito anytime + ☕

[@JenniferMabus]

Oh that would be AMAZING. Burritos are life.

[@arthurjamison772]

Yep!

[@doraflores6684]

It seems like this area is prettier than the Sierra Mountains. Is that possible?

[@oceandrew]

Uhmmm.... carnitas! Very calorie rich, too.

[@SouthWestWildernessScotland]

Another good one Starburst. You must have some sort of discipline because a few weeks back you would have been straight into town.

[@stephenludden5399]

How do you connect the inReach Garmin device to Your Backpack........?

[@aeropilot4419]

Stephen Ludden it has a clip in the back 🙂
