I thru hiked the PCT in 21 and 22. Not many You Tubers bring me back to that experience as well as you two. Great videos. I think you are capturing the honesty and purity of the trail so well. I so look forward to your uploads once you hit the Sierra and Washington. I have to thank you for capturing that little creek just outside of camp Cleef. That is where I rolled my right ankle in 22 and thought I was done. I pressed on to Big bear and got help by then-HEISENBERG
Glad you like it!! It is really hard to capture the full beauty of the trail with a camera but we try our best. It is a truly magical experience.
New Subscriber from England UK 🇬🇧. Just playing catch up with your videos. Good luck.
Wow great quality video. I love the drone footage and PIP when you are walking and talking. 😎👍
Great videos. I look forward to following your hike.
Been following the AT for 6 weeks; glad that your beginning PCT showed up!!
Instead of doing the AT by myself, I'll try and convince the 'old lady' to at least do some PCT section hikes!!
We're only in our 70's!!
Great job you two!!! Sorry to hear about Sadie's poison oak reaction. That is NEVER FUN. Okay, I'm hooked, I will follow your trip all the way to Canada!!!
Awesome video, thanks for sharing your journey
Holy moly, great video. Funny, I did a gear shakedown hike along the PCT, Feb. 24th- 28th, and camped at Hauser Creek, Kitchen Creek Falls, and Dale's Kitchen. Ended my hike at Desert View Picnic Area. Awesome show of your hike. Looking forward to the next installment. Have fun and be safe. Ow, and sorry about the weather on Monday, hope you weren't hit to bad.
Great story telling! I'll be looking forward to the next episode.
Have fun and good luck you two, sorry to hear about the poison oak😢😢.. will be a fun watch for this year thanks for sharing
Nice drone work. Adds a lot to Video. Hike on.
Merci pour la ballade ❤🇧🇪
Wow I’ve never seen water in hauser creek!
This is fun to watch on my lunch break at work, thanks guys have fun!
Glad you're enjoying it! Have some delicious food for us please!
Good luck you two! Happy trails. Be safe and have fun! Thanks for sharing your trip. Following along with you on the map 😊
New subscriber here. I’ve never followed any PCT hikers. Looking forward to following your journey. Sorry about the poison oak, that sucks.
Commenting for the algorithm.
Haha, thank you!!
Happy to find your channel! Looks like a great start except for the poison oak. Hope you were able to get over that and move on, but on the bright side Mt. Laguna is not a bad place to zero. I like your initial pace for the hike. Looking forward to your further episodes!
Be safe; keep at it!
Very nice footage! Sorry about the poison oak experience. Look forward to more videos!
Great video and love the drone footage.
That water crossing was balls deep last year, and I was stupid enough to hike up Hauser Canyon in the heat of the afternoon to camp at Lake Morena the first day, and then I slept in the pit toilet at Cibbets Flat to avoid a freezing 70 mph storm. Fun times.
Love your video and will definitely subscribe to your channel. I live in the Coachella Valley and make trips to the I10 bridge. Hope to see you there!
Sorry to hear about the PO. That has to suck! Hopefully it's cleared up by now. Looking forward to following your journey on the PCT. I'm actually headed out to Warner Springs this Saturday (3/23) to start my Section B hike. Warner Springs to Mike's Place. Then Sunday (3/24), Mike's Place to PVC. Not sure how far you two will have traveled by then, but maybe I'll catch ya on the trail.
I hiked a portion of the PCT in 2018. I kid you not, but at the 2:18 mark, a rattlesnake was sitting on that knee-level rock on the left and scared the crap out of me. i had to go around.
Most of southern California south of the Tehachapi mountains (which you will reach eventually) is a desert of some sort. Your mileage is good for the start of the trail. Poison oak (ivy) is bad news, hope you get better quickly. Wishing you the best.
Nice drone footage! First time I've seen drone footage from PCT hikers. For the poison oak rash (sorry about that!) try Tecnu Rash Relief if you can find it. Great start!
Sadie, sorry to hear you got hit with the poison oak so bad. Glad to see it has not dissuaded you and Zag from continuing your journey.
Just a little bump on the road. It's all just a big learning experience for us!
-Zag
Superb vlogs i love it ❤❤❤
That will hopefully be where I am in 14 months. Counting down!
That's awesome!!! I'm sure the time will fly by super fast for you.
-Zag
Usually the time does fly by. Thank you for uploading your adventures in hiking.
Hello! Hope you guys feel better soon! Giggle told me about tiny hostel 😂
Hope you recover quickly with the poison oak.
Tecnu and Calamine are the go to for poison oak. Hope it gets better.
Got the go to PCT footage for this year
Cute twin z's Sun shirts So far it looks like you're making good time Looks like you're about a day behind scrooge from Oregon
Very Nice. I hope to catch up to you! LOL; but you got a big head start. Plant Papa
Plant papa!! We look forward to following along your trek!
-Sadie
Sorry about the poison oak. When I saw you sitting down on the creek by Hauser I was worried that you got it. Looking forward to your next video
Kimche
That's probably where I got it!!! Rookie move. I'm definitely paying for it
-Sadie
Yeah, I can see it too. Leaves of three, let them be. Leaves are shiny with oil. Stems also do not have thorns. Some berry plants look like PO. Thorns or lack thereof is the giveaway.
My own best dreams.....
Looking good. Sadie, how are the feet doing?
May I suggest couple of things. Set background music volume to 80% of normal, and try to normalise/level the spoken volume. Right now I can't really watch the video on a big telly as I need to turn up the volume for the dialogue, but then the music comes in so loud that it'd wake up the family. Audio quality makes a big difference with watchability of the hiking videos.
Feet are doing great! Not a single blister! I went with injinji liners and darn tough socks.
I will tell Zag. He is the vid editor and still learning haha.
-Sadie
@@sadieandzag Keep me updated!
Couple of other quick tips, if that's alright. Avoid quick pans, and even then you can slow the pan 50% to make it more cinematic. Also avoid quick zooms and the use of digital zoom if you're using a phone. The digital zoom degrades the quality, makes it grainy and looks really poor on a big screen TV.
Yep. At 3:26 there’s just a quick clip of poison oak in the creek. Hope you were able to get it treated and back on the trail. Poison oak is miserable. 😢
Yeah, just saw that. I had to pause the video because I was like NO! POISON OAK EVERYWHERE!
Yikes, sorry about the poison oak. Can you get hold of some Tecnu wash? It breaks up the poison oak oils so it doesn't keep spreading and your skin can heal.
If you feel a little tired Smile because you habe a old man named lee hanging on your pack for the next few months
Welcome to California and Pct. Enjoy all the running creeks and lighten ur water carries. Except, watch 3:24 those poison oak vines, tend to grow out near water. U all wont make that mistake, again.
When you make it to Southern Oregon, if you need a ride I can help. I am a Trail Angel outside of Crater Lake and I take people to Klamath Falls Medford and sometimes Bend.
Thank you david!
-Sadie
3:20 That area looks like it's surrounded by poison oak.
Where are you guys?
I had to get rushed to an urgent care when we got to Julian. I have been on oral and topical steroids to chill my poison oak reaction out. Starting the trail where we left off in 2 days! Posting a new vid today
-Sadie
Are you walking on the heels of your shoes at 3:07?
Are you talking about Zag?
Showers at lake morena?
Yep, there's coin operated showers at the campground.
@@mikeb7117 do you know the cost per minute?
@@joeya8721 I think it was $0.50 for 4 minutes.
Boo poison oak!
Quit?

Oh, no! Speedy recovery and happy to hear you’re still pushing on.
"We're in the desert still, technically." Actually, you're very much *not* in desert here. The desert is quite a number of miles to the east. This is California's most common habitat: chaparral. San Diego's Cleveland National Forest is 82% chaparral habitat. Most of southern California is chaparral and you will also be walking through it in San Bernardino National Forest (52%) and in Angeles NF (74%). You'll be seeing it all the way into Oregon! Typical chaparral plants are Chamise, Black Sage, White Sage, Laurel Sumac, Manzanita, Ceanothus, California Buckwheat, Scrub Oak, and Chaparral Yucca. There's a bit of transitional "desert chaparral" immediately around Scissors Crossing, but you won't hit any real desert until you get to the westernmost edge of the Mojave Desert at the California Aqueduct north of the Angeles Mountains.
