    Shout out to Hot Mess. I was on my second attempt at a Thru Hike in 2022 after having to abandon my 2021 attempt and rolled my ankle two miles out of camp Cleef. Thought I was done but kept going. I loved the quote about being in a partnership is all about a compromise. Some of us who go out into the woods to hear nature and have solitude do not enjoy being bombarded by a trail family of 14 at every stop and campsite. Think about trail compromises.

      Hot Mess was a trooper 💪
      We were aware that we were a big group, so we were always respectful in camp.

    Of all the PCT films I have watched this one captures what I imagine as the funnest approach to the PCT. The people! Don’t get me wrong, I totally get folks that want to walk every last inch of the trail, or have more solitude ect, but you guys just rocked it. Thank you for creating this wonderful film.
