Day 132, August 22

[@teriterry7296]

I am so grateful every day for the videos, i know how much work and dedication it has taken to do the work each day to get these out. Thank-you to the codgers and Mrs Rumbles for all of it.......

[@tammyjarvis3699]

Wow you guys! Awesome day for knifes edge! Awesome footage!

[@robertbarnes4]

That Goat Rocks area I think has some of the best views. No goats 🐐 this time. You all rock.

[@joanhennes2249]

Spectacular! Thanks as always for sharing this amazing footage!❤

[@joanhennes2249]

Sadly, I lost my trekking poles on this section and twisted my ankle going down the loose rock. Had to limp the 15 miles to White Pass. Glad you got down safely!

[@wolfeadventures]

What a ridge! Great scenery. 👌🏻👌🏻

[@dangaspar1707]

Packwood Lake...very nice lake. Awesome stretch of trail on the north side of Old Snowy and the Knife's Edge.

[@stephenhicks9139]

Really great to run into you all (with Marmalade) north of Snoqualmie!

[@BruceKaufman-x5f]

Hello Codgers. I've been following your PCT thru hike off and on this year. What an adventure! I've enjoyed your journey and wanted to wish you good luck as you move through Washington towards British Columbia! Really good luck!! I hope you enjoy the Cascades as much as I have on my visits there from Calgary. Be well and continued good fun.

[@krazedkamper]

My favorite part of the PCT! Absolutely stunning and exhilarating! Great job, Codgers and Hazel! 🎉😊

[@jellybeanhikes9581]

That was one of the best sections of the pcr

[@thuthiehiker]

You scored on the views today. Fantastic. ❤

[@kellyjohnson3617]

You got your first real peak at the majestic mt rainier. It’s so windy up on knifes edge but I’m glad the sun came out for you a little bit. You are deep in mountain goat country. It means lots of gorgeous views when the weather permits. Otherwise you are hiking in the clouds. You got to hike on the glacier on the approach to knifes edge. Very cool. Here’s wishing you happy trails and thanks for posting

[@tommurphy6972]

Man such marvels views, what a trail.. thanks for sharing

[@michelleoglesbee-flores2518]

Marmalade let me know that the clouds cleared when you all went over knifes edge. So happy to hear that. Beautiful, even with the winds!

[@memathews]

Hi Michelle! Off topic: let me know if you're up for a modest October fall colors hike, I'd enjoy hearing what you're up to these days.

[@robertligas250]

The views were stunning😊

[@roamingcali]

😮 This is the first video since the mountaineering with Skeletor that had me gripping my phone and not breathing. Wow.

[@loricollins3163]

Wow! This was a special day…amazing views! You earned them! Safe Travels!

[@helengoetz8530]

Beautiful. Happy trails😊

[@kilroy989]

Goat Rocks is a gorgeous section of the PCT and you all really captured some incredible photos and video traversing the Knife's Edge. Was a pleasure to meet you all - stay safe and enjoy the rest of WA! -fp

[@pismorichy]

I just returned from eastern Sierras, you guys motivate, intimidate and are simply amazing. Happy Trails, at Reds Resort many PCTers returning to complete southern Sierras to Kennedy Meadows South.

[@escapeartist25]

Thank you so much for sharing the trail with us!

[@memathews]

Your previous video showed you at the end of day camp, but I i wasn't sure where and thought you crossed Old Snowy and the Knife's Ridge without any vistas! Now I feel better that you had a great day up there, maybe not clear views but a good mix of weather and views to get the feel for the Goat Rocks. Speaking of, did you see any goats? Maybe they were lost in the mist. Washington is pretty magical and there's more of this to come with some additional surprises. On the fires, I'm sure you have PCTA and Far Out reports, but the app Watch Duty pushes updated fire reports, including maps and closures, for each county you select (4 counties allowed in the free app and you can change the counties at any time). Of course you need a signal, but it's the best app I've seen for fast changing fires, well worth the download.

[@randysmith6493]

lovely Knife Edge .

[@Pokey-vq4kn]

Awesome views and conditions today!!!

[@MaryGilmour-ui6sp]

Thank you for sharing. Lovin it!

[@Judy-fi7ce]

Nice opening shot of three of you hiking the ridge. What gorgeous views! You guys were eye level with the clouds! Great video! Happy trails!.

[@LoriG75]

Waterfall clouds, just beautiful! The views in Washington are magnificent! I feel bad there is so much smoke while you are here. Hoping you get some good views of Rainier. She takes your breath away!

[@pcrice-lr2dn]

Mt Rainier is breathtaking,the first time I saw it was from the sky ,above the clouds and the sun on it ,a memory I will never forget ♥️

[@LenserX]

Wow! Kracker Barrel really embraced the hiker trash and expanded.

[@davemiller251]

Shoe lake - - and then Rimrock lake in the distance.

[@gregburkhart9764]

I'm so glad it cleared up for you guys.

[@MaryGilmour-ui6sp]

Gorgeous….

[@Berry_N]

What a stunning sunrise on the ridge. Such gorgeous scenery on a beautiful day. Hike on, stay safe.

[@MaylesTrails]

No fire smoke 🙌 Enjoying following along, as a 40 year old future codger!

[@susankelly5516]

That was one sketchy hike up at the top there and so much wind. Glad you guys got through it safely.

[@gusgus2539]

Thank you

[@miketroutman7365]

Goat rocks was one of my favorite spots on the PCT in Washington.

[@Vanderloo5]

Amazing views! Wind might suck but it looks like it's clearing out the smoke.

[@121snapshots]

That was a sketchy start but the views are spectacular. What an update. Keep push happy trails

[@ewing21139]

My favorite so far.

[@Dora-bmrwarrior]

I'm still watching every video! Such awesome beauty on this part of the of trail. Glad everyone did well on those tough sections. Stunning view of Mt Rainier. I camped and hiked in the national park for a week decades ago. A trip I'll never forget!

[@mickeydyke392]

So glad you got to finally have some sunshine and views. Mt. Rainier is always a treat.

[@ferretzfan]

Wow, it’s so much clearer than the day before, giving you some beautiful views from the Knife’s Edge! It sounds like the howling wind blew the smoke away.

[@anneest]

Fantastic, I am so happy for you that you finally got views, especially over Mt Rainier, amazing 😀👍 Also we are wondering if No Filter's pants are going to make it all the way up to Canada?? Suspense... 🤓

[@marthawade5297]

What a great hiking day! Incredible views.😮

[@AWalkOnDirt]

There is a photo sphere on Google maps of exactly their location. As I was virtually following the trial on the map this is one of the best vistas on the trial but here in the video all the colorful plant growth is missing. Odd how the landscape changes.

[@KandaThompson]

Day 132 has been absolutely amazing. So glad I didn’t have to send y’all a Dollar for every time I said WOW, because I would be as broke as a Missouri Mule right now!

[@rkatrails]

Wow, the vast and wide open views were extraordinary! Sure made up for all the views you missed with the smoke. Kracker Barrel looked like a nice little oasis to stop overnight.

[@markstanton2362]

If they are all feeling the cold do we call them draft codgers?

[@veroniqueurquijo9418]

Beaux paysages

[@debtyler215]

❤❤❤ xxx

[@desertdental4335]

some rugged terrain

[@ericcomp7032]

Here we go 🚶‍♂️

[@lorriescott8775]

How many days from the end of a video until it is posted? This shows White Pass, but you could be at Steven’s now.

[@roamingcali]

Click on "more" under the video title to see the video description. This was recorded on August 22nd.

[@MT-HikerGirl]

Do you all use a ground cloth?

[@hikingwiththecodgers4086]

Yes

[@sp00nfed]

How's is Hazels new pack working out for her?

[@robertt9270]

There are no Cracker Barrel’s in Washington.

[@cherylparker6636]

What is going on? Is someone hurt? Why are we not getting videos???

[@hikingwiththecodgers4086]

Everyone is fine. I took a few days off to spend with grand kids. Should get one out this afternoon. Sorry y’all. …Ms R

[@jenniferj5107]

I was wondering the same thing! I'm happy to hear everything is okay but man this made me realize I am going to be so sad when their hike is done and the videos stop. 😢

[@hounddoghiker9021]

Love the vistas but it’s another Codger video that’s better watched with the sound muted unless you enjoy listening to crackles that nearly blow out your eardrums. Video sound is an hugely important part of videography and the codger stubbornness to not do something about it is the biggest negative of their channel.

[@hikingwiththecodgers4086]

Some like the natural sounds so I chose to leave it to the viewer to turn down the volume.

[@roamingcali]

​@hikingwiththecodgers4086 It is indeed natural sounds. Helped me understand how windy it really was up there.

I like the natural sounds! The howling wind on the ridge provided authenticity!

[@emptyplenty4730]

U see kris Fowler signs up theres? Been missing for 5 years now. It snowed on mt hood this morning. Good luck

[@coryoverstreet865]

Beautiful day on trail after a bit of clearer skies. 🏕️😎☮️ I love seeing Marmalade still with y’all! Happy Trails
