Episode Summary: Week 10 along the PCT…oh what a time that was. We record this episode from a campfire and our tent, in true hikertrash fashion. Week 10 of the PCT covers what’s going on with Optimist, breaking trail down Glen Pass after a snowstorm, Yeti’s slog up Pinchot Pass, a extraordinarily early morning to climb up Mather Pass, and hiking with Cuppa for the last time on trail. It’s an episode of epic adventures and laughs. Tune in!
