My Pacific Crest Trail Trek Prep

Starting Your Hike Prepared

In preparation for the Pacific Crest Trail, my wife Sarah and I methodically looked at each area of our gear to see where the weight could be stripped down. With a keen eye towards saving weight and maintaining overall comfort we left no stone unturned.

In the same way we prepared our physical bodies and mental fitness. The last thing you want is a journey stopping injury miles away from the nearest cell tower or medical assistance.

Enjoy Injury Free Hiking

Invest Prep Time With Me

Injuries are the number one reason hikers abandon their hikes each year. Invest a little time with me before your hiking adventures and enjoy more energy and less recovery time from injury pain.

Learn all about how Sarah and I hiked 2600 miles injury free at thetrek.co

In an interview for REI I discuss eating right on the trial as part of preparing for a successful hike. Avoiding low-quality foods can keep you refueled and help you avoid post-trail depression.
