Pacific Crest Trail Thru Hike Episode 57 - Goat Rocks

[@LWilli5]

6:33 Those mountains are awe inspiring, even more so when you remember that they are volcanos.

[@davidschmude]

I’m getting caught up on the videos after being out on the North Country Trail in the Allegheny National Forest for a few days. I just want to say how much I enjoy Bigfoot’s input and contributions to these videos. It’s cool that you found someone to hike such a big piece of the trail with. Okay. I think I have time to watch one more before Wheel of Fortune comes on. :)

[@DebCampos]

Frozen, you've haven't lost your admiration for the places you're passing through. From the beginning, it's been so nice to see your constant appreciation of the beautiful views! 🌺🌺🌺🌺

[@alfialho7722]

I agree. I’ve thought about that a few times now.

[@j.stephens257]

A reunion of friends to look forward to in 2026, sounds like a great plan! Best to you both and continued safe travels.

[@russellinthebush2897]

Wow, your day across the Knife's Edge was perfect! I had a clear morning, but weather came in when I started crossing it. Right after, there was a fire detour from the burn which you commented about. Two of my brothers picked me up and whisked me away to Packwood for breakfast. Afterwards, I spent too much time at the cracker barrel too; it was grey and damp out. I think, in sheer beauty, Washington, especially the North Cascades, blows the Sierra out of the water. The Sierra has a lot of grey granite, while Washington has much more color. Thanks for sharing your hike!

[@151heyjudee]

I would never have been able to see this beautiful scenery without watching your hike. Nice to see your subscription numbers climbing . You deserve it, thanks for all your hard work.

[@peteristead2528]

Well, you have convinced me Frozen. I will hike the entire length of PCT in Washington state in one go! Then plan from there……. Unfortunately I cannot afford 5-6 months to do it all in one go!! Thank you, and Bigfoot for the inspiration!!

[@JMS407]

The shot of you two walking across that meadow is awesome, you will look back at that fondly.

[@michellegurdebeke5552]

So glad you 2 have a plan with safety first! Washington state is gorgeous. Thank you for sharing these beautiful views!! Looking forward to the next video. Happy trails 👣

[@kalaloch07]

So happy happy happy you have sunshine in goat rocks. Love my state.

[@anninwhack1998]

So glad you have a positive plan! That’s all of life to just make it happen the best you can and plan for future adventures! Smart.

[@gingerrush7536]

The blisters look like poison ivy or poison oak. The rashes can form huge blisters like that. Benadryl every day. Calamine lotion might help too.

[@BucksMom218]

Yes they also tend to run linear and this rash is on your sock line. It’s plant contact. 🥴🥾🥾⛺️❤️‍🩹

[@nancystephens7663]

You’re getting closer by the day! Almost to Canada! Have so enjoyed watching you and Big Foot hike the PCT. We have some beautiful areas of this country. Keep moving forward….stay well.🇺🇸

[@dianamazzullo9065]

I’ve watched other people hike this trail in previous years and were faced with the same dilemma you guys are facing now. You have to do what you have to do to stay safe. The fires out there are ridiculously unpredictable. It seems every year it’s the same when it comes to the fires. ❤

[@AJKPenguin]

"You turn the corner and 'OH! It's Bigfoot!'" His eyes are perfect with the quote. Wonderful episode here, Jason. GOAT Rocks, greatest of all time? Hattip to the Oil City, PA resident.

[@camilomoreno6895]

Goat Lake seemed to be fully covered in snow. There is a loop around that area that is a super fun hike.

[@jamiwoods8678]

I’ve never been to Washington and i lived on the west coast and its so dang beautiful! Thank you for taking all of us along

[@MarlinGawith]

The spot on Goat Rocks where you can see Mt Adams, St Helens, and Rainier if you hike down to the edge there are camp spots. That is where I camped on my first SOBO PCT section. It's a magical spot. I'm going to try to make it my last camp when I wrap up my section thru hike as a victory lap between Trout Lake and White Pass. Your 2026 plan sounds great. You can't miss Glacier Peak.

[@stephenhiker9807]

Wow, Washington is stunning!

[@daveh.4193]

Washington is beautiful. I find myself blown away sometimes even on short day hikes. Hope you get to return and make up the missed miles, or just come back for the beauty. Stay safe and good health.

[@chrislindsey3393]

@10:20 its tough to pronounce , its Natch-eez, I call it snatcheeze lol glad you made it though there, Im.sure you saw the signs Chris "Sherpa" went missing there in the White Pass area.

[@Cindyscrossstitch]

So pretty. The ray of lights from the clouds awesomeness. 👣🌻

[@kmcgoeshiking27]

Glad you have a great plan!! Washington is so beautiful!!

[@MrTitanTopper]

Sounds like a plan for 2026!! You guys have NOTHING to feel hollow about regarding this THRU-hike. With that said, I luv the idea of you guys (and maybe with Merica) finishing up that beautiful section. 👍🏻

[@joepeters5796]

Goat Rocks was gorgeous. Always wondered what your favorite 5 mile stretch might be. Better yet ... What were your top five favorite places on the PCT? ... A question for a future Q and A 😉

[@robertjaycox8488]

It's awesome how clear the skies are for you guys. Smoke wise.

[@robertjaycox8488]

And once I say that you guys spot a fire

[@JamieKrause86]

Definitely looked beautiful out there with all those mountains! Definitely stay safe out there with all the fire closures! 2026 will be definitely awesome to watch!

[@GivePeaceAChance12]

Gorgeous;; Wow, that is on the edge!!!!

[@ChipClarkSD]

The big difference between the Sierras and the Cascades is elevation. Much of the Sierra section of the PCT is above the tree line so there's not a lot of green.

[@darrenb3551]

Man! Look at that view and background/ view. God is awesome!!

[@uncleschuck]

Umm you actually did do the Sierra's in the summer

[@JDWink]

He meant with less snow. I imagine August- mid October is the best time to hike the Sierras?

[@chonrae]

Simply beautiful!! Wow!

[@maryhairy1]

Tough decision made! 💜 Washington state is horrible with all those views!

[@daveh.4193]

👍 think it'll work? Lol

[@punkhandluke]

We need a Frozen & Bigfoot t shirt!

[@gregharmon3797]

Great plan for you guys

[@Hikergy16]

You’re the man Jason

[@PSUhorty1]

Thank you!

[@CarolYvanovich]

Great episode!!! Soooo gorgeous!!!

[@mrwes100]

Frozen, thanks for letting us follow you on your adventures! Regarding the bottle bidet (thinking of going this route), do you use another, smaller water bottle when you use it? I'm having anxiety about using my drinking water bottle down there! LOL....

[@FrozensAdventures]

No I used my clean water, the angle of the bidet makes it nearly impossible for backsplash unless you are putting the bidet up your butt =P

[@margaloone7970]

This reminds me of British Columbia. Beautiful

[@obiwanjacobi]

Good plan!

[@barbaraclark9423]

Just wow!

[@alexwbanks70]

Awesome!

[@dayhikedave]

Incredible 👍🙂🙏

[@garylindenmuth7468]

Nice video

[@jaymenna]

Go!

[@carolynnkimmes1166]

Wow wow wow!!

[@jimbelmont5608]

Can't believe you didn't film the knife or did you skip it?

[@FrozensAdventures]

My camera was set to slow motion. A lot of footage got lost. We did do it in perfect weather, also got to talk to my wife up there. Shit happens.

[@RyanSchell]

How you liking that Alpha Direct hoodie?

[@FrozensAdventures]

It's been one of my favorite pieces of gear so far. Holding up great but I'm very careful about washing it (using newer washers/dryers etc )

[@RyanSchell]

@@FrozensAdventures What temps is it about when you are wearing it, and what is it you like about it? Is it the 60 or 90 (i think they are) option?

[@juliesmith3872]

❤

[@debbieclinard7122]

Sorry, Frozen you are incorrect. That does not look like the Sierras at all. You are still in the volcanic cascade range. The Sierras were formed by glaciers and the mountains are made of granite so they’re light color. Just so you know. Hike the John Muir trail soon.

[@FrozensAdventures]

Either way I bet the Sierra is even more beautiful without the snow.

[@pbj4241]

Is Big Foot a Dutch Native or just lives in the NL? It seems like he has very little to no Dutch accent as I know it.

[@FrozensAdventures]

He's a native. He's lived in a few different countries for a while though and worked on his English

[@redknightsr69]

​@FrozensAdventures so he lives in the Nederlands?

[@RyanSchell]

I hate the Washington has the views, yet all the burn zones especially this early. Doesn't seem to make sense

[@BiggJohnson]

Drone footage would absolutely filthy through that canyon.

[@whatkjsaw4461]

🔥😕🏔️🙂🎉🥳

[@PSUhorty1]

Oh and, btw, can't stand when you show your feet, lol. I have to turn my head away during those parts of the video. Totally NOT a foot person here. Keep pushing, almost there, man. I'll be sad when this series ends, just like I was for the AT.
