Finally Some Photographs

From the Northern Cascades in July.

Here They Are

Done!

July 11th, 2015 till December 9th, 2015

~~~

Southbound Thru-Hike Completed!

I hope to post some pictures soon 

but I still need to get most 

of the film (yes film!) 

developed.

thank you to the countless people who helped me out along the way

Love,

 Superhip

This is what I am taking on my hike.

 It is around 19.5 lbs. 

Heading to NYC today to spend a couple days 

before I fly out to Seattle then make my way

to Canada and then to Mexico.

Start Date: July 9th, from Harts Pass (then to the monument & back)

Very excited, not nervous,

though it hasn't really hit me yet.

But days grow nearer, 

and the months of preparation seem less trivial 

my decisions more inevitable.

I have always loved adventures.

If you would like to send me a package or letter these are the places 

and tentative dates for my Pacific Crest Trail thru-hike. 

Please send two to three weeks in advance to the
ETA dates depending on your location.

The dates with the * next to them are the ones where I need the most food.

I will be sending myself boxes to all of these locations so I don’t need anything in particular but I would appreciate fun snacks and maybe a watermelon?

This is the stuff that I plan to bring on my PCT thru-hike. 

I have been updating a similar list for my past three big hikes
(SHT, LT, & AT). 

This is just my style if I were someone else I would drop the tent for a light tarp, get rid of my frying pan, ipod, speaker, battery, secondary camera (I have film and digital), camp shoes (modified crocs), and replace my fleece pants with something lighter. but fuck that I be Pacific Crestin'

Livin phat off da land ya hear but don't tell no one
