Pacific Crest Trail (PCT) 2024 - Gear Dump

Starting the PCT in 2 days and we are pumped! Leaving this gear dump video for anyone that might benefit. We know what it’s like to start from scratch!
Also, for friends and family who keep asking what we’re bringing out on trail, here you go!

I'm sure there is a good reason why you are each taking a Garmin Inreach Mini instead of sharing one but I'd like to know your reason. Thanks.

[@JeanWasHere]

Great question! We decided to each bring a Garmin Inreach Mini 2 mostly because we’d rather have and not need rather than need and not have. This gives us the ability to not only press the SOS button for ourselves, but for each other. Additionally, we feel we’ll use these devices in future adventures as well.

Can’t believe I didn’t get a shoutout for the sewing kit…

[@JeanWasHere]

That’s because I ended up using a different one lol…it’s the thought that counts tho, still should have shouted you out, sorry Cass 😢

Awesome video. Definitely will be following along!!......if both of you and especially the lady cuts down on uhms in 1 video 😅 The amount of uhm's in this video is really annoying if I may say so.

[@JeanWasHere]

Thank you, glad you found our video helpful! We were just talking about all of our uhms and laughing about it on trail! We’re still a bit new to filming ourselves, so we still have some bad habits to fix.. We will definitely work on cutting down on uhms 😉

I would recommend glasses just incase 😅

[@JeanWasHere]

Good call! Glasses were brought as well 🤓
