Pacific Crest Trail - PCT- 2025

The Pacific Crest Trail runs along the entire length of the USA - from Mexico to Canada, through California, Oregon, and Washington - and it had been a dream of mine to hike it since we first visited Yosemite and Lake Tahoe when I was 8 years old.
In summer 2025 I succesfully thru-hiked 4,700 km along the whole PCT, trekking over 53 km every day for 90 days straight, supported by The North Face and following a competition run by Outside Magazine.
This adventure, like life, is all about the journey - and journeys are about the people you meet and the person you become along the way. It's the friends and memories you make in the process that make it so special.

I've also written two guides about the kit I took with me on the PCT:
