Goat Rocks and Old Snowy form what is left of the rim of a giant extinct volcano. The Knife’s Edge is also part of it. The bowl and basin after that is inside the ancient volcano. My daughter and I spent 5 days there earlier this month. Unfortunately for us we got rained and fogged out the day we hit Cispus Pass. But we spent a lot of time on Old Snowy after the weather cleared, taking a nap in one of the bivvies at the summit! Such an amazing area! Great video. Love your commentary and your perspective! BTW. The area does get its name from the native mountain goat herds there.
My husband stayed in Packeood as I hiked the Eonderland trail in 6 days. Came home with a huge heal blister from Oboz which I will never buy again. I wish now I would have gone to see that knifes edge before heading back home. Great video as always!!!
You’re face is absolutely beautiful, but I do enjoy seeing the trail POV as much as possible as my reason for watching is that I am a long-time hiker can no longer go due to health issues. I like to watch and imagine I am doing it.
Just a note to say thank you. Thank you for sharing your adventure! I've watched every vid from the start and like some others look forward each day as I have my breakfast. You are a special person and have met some awesome people along the way. Success is near and I look forward to celebrating with you :)
I love seeing your face.... and it does not suck (your words)! Beautiful face and spirit! The scenery is incredible as well. I am grinning thinking of Judy Garland in the Wizard of Oz.... "Somewhere... Over the Rainbow!" I saw that Tommy (Big T) met you on the trail. I follow Tommy as well. So you know... I am now..... officially jealous of Tommy!
You showed us some REALLY pretty scenery today. Oh wow! So pretty! Uh, you are on the Pacific CREST trail, so I'm thinking that's why the trail went on TOP of that ridge and not around it. And it was so pretty, too. We love seeing your lovely face, too. I don't know who told you otherwise. You're my favorite PCT hiker.
I've learned that there are very few "wrong" decisions. We make choices based on the information we have. I think it's a great idea to do that 60 mile road walk once you've reached the end though! Beautiful scenery! When you were talking about goat rocks before, I was picturing some type of rock scrambling situation.
Wow wow wow, the views from Knifes Edge were rhe best I've ever seen. I agreed, things happen for a reason and that people pass through our lives for a reason and a season. You're right where you're supposed to be. That's for chatting with us, and love when you talk to thw camera, I feel like we're having a 1 on 1 chat. Lol me and all your followers. You're doing great. Thanks for sharing
Wow, such beautiful views today! Thank you for ALL of your videos - I tune in every morning with my first cup of coffee and it’s such an uplifting start to my day.
So beautiful. My mom’s final backpacking trip was in Goat Rocks Wilderness. She was 75 yrs old. Seeing those peaks pulled at my heartstrings. I have a pic of her in front of them with her old pack frame pack. You are making memories that will last a lifetime!,,
WoW! What amazing beautiful views in the goat rocks area. I think the area you referred to as knife's edge might be why they call that area Goat Rock and you have to be a goat to climb it LoL Hike~~On~~>
Wow! Definitely a lot more than hiking to be up so high! I'll not see such things, so thank you for making it possible to catch a glimpse! I've been on a mountain top in Alaska and on the beach in Key West, Florida and perhaps that's enough. Your shows are 100 percent awesome! THANK YOU!
Wow! What a great and gorgeous day through goat rocks. Seems like you just sailed through it. I'd rather see face when you're talkin'...we can see the scenery behind you.😁🌻💛
watching your videos and Capt Jack on the AT are the best, it feels like you two are talking to us rather than at us . must be some intuitive ability. and in topics that are interesting like hearing from a friend about their day
I believe one's decisions are generally the right decisions. One can always "what if' but you are making great progress and will complete the miles you were forced to skip.soon enough. Maybe you didn't have a continuous footpath but wow what an amazing trip you have had and in the end you will have hiked the entire PCT. What an accomplishment. Loved watching Boogie's video on his almost last day and how he shared he fondness of you and told the story of you showing him how to correctly pitch his tent after 500 days into hiking!!! You have met some amazing people on this trail and although I was very sad at the way your first tramily parted, it ended up by your meeting some incredible and loyal friends. Take care of that knee, I noticed your wrap was missing later in the hike.
Darn, the goats didn't come out to greet you! There are mountain goats in the area from Cispus through Knife's Edge. Sometimes they are on the trail, sometime above it below trail. On clear days as in your video a hiker can scan the rocks and see the goats even if they are standing on a snowfield. I've seen goats on the lower slope of Mt Adams near Bird Lake and the ridge above (on the reservation). There are also goats in Olympic NP and Alpine Wilderness Area, all in Washington.
The views are what I enjoy most since I know I may only ever see PCT views on videos from hikers like yourself. I do enjoy your philosophical chats too. When I scroll past ads on the Internet I scroll more quickly past the young faces that are too close, too loud and talking too fast. I find them to be aggressive ads that feel offensive. Of course this could be because I'm old 😅 But more scenery would be a plus in your videos ❤
I’m guessing one of those male hikers was “Slide” good guy met him in old station when we were camped there for our annual family trip. Been following him north on CZcams and instagram since. I enjoy your videos and commentary. Thank you for posting.
You are fit enough to climb Rainier with a guide when you’re finished. Incredible experience- do it! PS- I understand the joy of solo hiking but those “bumps” you were on were dangerous. A broken leg or serious fall- bleeding requires assistance. I’m too old to take that chance anymore 😮
Thank you RR for sharing your adventure with us! I am following a CDT thru hiker too (Energizer), and it is so cool to see two entirely different trails through the eyes of two entirely unique people! Inspiring, insightful- and FUN!
Stehekin is still closed. Sorry, you will most likely stay on the west side and find a way thru the North Cascades. There Are a few small towns for resupply. Too bad, you would have loved Lake Chelan. I do. Enjoy the last few days of your adventure!
Juliane - Good Morning to you as well. BTW, Your face doesn’t suck, I know that was tongue in cheek. Timing is everything with this hike meeting the right people and avoiding these fire closures for the most part. I think Somewhere is your Guardian Angel popping in here and there to check in on you!! Great views today and lots of trees and another cool waterfall . Looks like your knee is holding up good.
Don't know why people say that more trail video as you talk. You have the wonderful face i even seen. You look like and angel. You are doing all some job doing your trail 👣
Just WOW! Knifes edge is nuts! I love your insights, the trail can keep you "in your own head" and you tell us what you are thinking. That is so refreshing to me 🙂
Goat Rocks is the remnants of an extinct stratovolcano. Goat Rocks includes Gilbert Peak, Old Snowy Mountain, Ives Peak, Tieton Peak, Johnson Peak, Bear Creek Mountain and Hogback Mountain.
Morning, Juliane. Wow! Absolutely awesome views today. The waterfall was gorgeous. Nice trail. Beautiful fields and forest. Great video. Glad you were able to see Somewhere. She does seem to just appear and disappear out of nowhere. So funny. You are doing so well on this trail. Hard to believe that we're still seeing snow in August. I'm sure you're amazed you're still walking on snow in August. Just never know what you're going to find out there. Glad you found a great campsite. I've found that usually things have a way of working out like they are supposed to happen through no planning. Take care. Stay safe. See you tomorrow.
That last big meadow was Snowgrass Flat - one of my favorite places in the entire world. Also, the Old Snowy alternate is the highest point on the PCT in Washington.
You totally had me giggling at the end. Spontaneity at its best. The area is called "Goat Rocks Wilderness" and it is all pretty, like "The Sierra". When you can see Mt Rainier, aka Tahoma, aka (from Skokomish tribe legend) "Taco Bud" on a clear day, we say "the mountain is out!" I hike in trees a lot and my Garmin can get irritating. Sometimes when Im at a spot like your view spot, I send a qick preset followup and it will bump both mssgs out. As for your face. You my dear, have a lovely face and it is so fun to watch your expressions when you talk! To heck with Picky Polly People!!! You do YOU! And you do it well! Glad your knee is better. ❤ Keep smiling and enjoy my beautiful state. 😊
Your soliloquy on serendipity was a little humorous. And I’m sure there’s a written summary of your saddle tree that could satisfy the local historians’ local color. I enjoy your points of discovery all from your Teutonic background, you’ve described an amazing variety of America, thank you and be safe💕
Let me just say first and foremost that I love your videos!! ❤ Today was so beautiful and wow what a trail. 😮 Thank you for sharing your journey!! Take care and stay safe. God bless! 😊
I happen to like the combo of seeing you talking and the trail. Like other subscribers, I love your storytelling style and facial expressions and I like to see some focused on the trail as it gives us a better perspective of what you are experiencing. Blessings and let the negativity roll off you like water from a ducks 🦆 back! Blessings on your journey.
Don’t listen to all the haters and people complaining you do the videos however you want and how you’ve been doing them that’s how your channel has been growing! the original way. Keep up the good work. 🔥💯🔥
I’m a registered Massage Therapist. Keep the KT tape on your knee and get another brace when you have a chance. It will support the ligaments. Also, support the muscles and give them a chance to get stronger with the possibility of not needing to use the brace. Enjoy your channel and adventure! I’m a backpacker and would love one day to do the PCT
This was a wonderful video 😮😮views were spectacular...I'm sorry there was no goat rock..😅 and that overplayed Franconia ridge 😮 for me anyways..Your doing great out there...your decisions are yours and God helps make them. He will keep you safe.. Blessings and safe trails ❤
We love your happy face. It is your journey we are following. And the gear views. I wish people wouldn’t leave their discarded trash on the trail like the saddle. Most important be safe.
Saw the rocks! Where's the 🐐 goat ? Roadrunner is dancing on Knifes edge. Thank you for sharing beautiful, breathtaking mountain and valley views! And yes you have a beautiful face 😔! We want to see your face and views
If this was a NG Special and you were doing a voice over…fine. But it isn’t. It is your adventure! I want to see your face as you talk with is. How am I supposed to see all the nuance that your face adds to the talking? And, when you deliver some sarcastic remark, I want to see the eyebrows go up and the smirk! Anywho, I’ve grown accustomed to your face and I like it.
Goat Rocks. An extinct volcano, which has some rocks which are good habitat for mountain goats. Hence the name. Confusingly, not named after rocks that looks like goats.
That was nerve wracking watching you walk the knife's edge. I was wondering is the snow left from last year or has it snowed a little already ? Take care !
I love your facial expressions when you're talking. That's what makes your videos special
This episode was the perfect combination of beautiful scenery and hilarious monologs!
"I'm sorry my face sucks" 😂😂😂😂 I just about choked on my breakfast at that part.. thank you for the laughs!
Dude packin' his lounge chair-CLASSIC!! 🤣🤣
Yessss❤Mount Rainier. I will be up there Saturday.
Your video's are perfect, I watch you everyday......don't listen to any negative talk.
You're the Goat! And you Rock! So whatever pile of rocks you're standing on is Goat Rocks! :)
Maybe Somewhere is actually a set of identical twins and they've been messing with you this whole time?
Lmao!
Maybe, but my theory is she's related to the Cheshire Cat 😁
😂😂😂 Some and Where!
Both are beautiful and love seeing both face and the woods / views.
Goat Rocks and Old Snowy form what is left of the rim of a giant extinct volcano. The Knife’s Edge is also part of it. The bowl and basin after that is inside the ancient volcano. My daughter and I spent 5 days there earlier this month. Unfortunately for us we got rained and fogged out the day we hit Cispus Pass. But we spent a lot of time on Old Snowy after the weather cleared, taking a nap in one of the bivvies at the summit! Such an amazing area! Great video. Love your commentary and your perspective! BTW. The area does get its name from the native mountain goat herds there.
Somewhere is hilarious! She should have popped out and yelled, “SURPRISE!!” 😂❤
And…today was absolutely gorgeous! Thank you for sharing! ❤❤
Screw those subscribers! you're way more Beautiful than any of the scenery you have shared with us. and your humor is to die for. keep rocking!
Totally agree !
My husband stayed in Packeood as I hiked the Eonderland trail in 6 days. Came home with a huge heal blister from Oboz which I will never buy again. I wish now I would have gone to see that knifes edge before heading back home. Great video as always!!!
Hill bashin' .
Lovely scenery and the ridge walking such a contrast to most of the route recently. Congrats on getting that last shuttle.
Back to some serious mountaineering. You are crushing these miles and drinking in the views. Lovely. 😊
You’re face is absolutely beautiful, but I do enjoy seeing the trail POV as much as possible as my reason for watching is that I am a long-time hiker can no longer go due to health issues. I like to watch and imagine I am doing it.
This was a wonderful video! I love seeing your facial expressions and I love the scenery. Just keep doing what you’re doing and ignore the critics.
Just a note to say thank you. Thank you for sharing your adventure! I've watched every vid from the start and like some others look forward each day as I have my breakfast. You are a special person and have met some awesome people along the way. Success is near and I look forward to celebrating with you :)
"There is a bunch of rocks right here... and I haven't seen any goats!" 😆 That must be the goat rocks. This is why I watch your videos. 🤣
I love seeing your face.... and it does not suck (your words)! Beautiful face and spirit! The scenery is incredible as well. I am grinning thinking of Judy Garland in the Wizard of Oz.... "Somewhere... Over the Rainbow!" I saw that Tommy (Big T) met you on the trail. I follow Tommy as well. So you know... I am now..... officially jealous of Tommy!
Amazing 360 degree view, wow u r so fortunate u won't forget that experience
You showed us some REALLY pretty scenery today. Oh wow! So pretty! Uh, you are on the Pacific CREST trail, so I'm thinking that's why the trail went on TOP of that ridge and not around it.

Somewhere carries a portable ultralight wormhole with her.
Beautiful rocks thanks for sharing.
Much respect for hiking that section by yourself. It was windy. 👣🌻
So beautiful. My mom’s final backpacking trip was in Goat Rocks Wilderness. She was 75 yrs old. Seeing those peaks pulled at my heartstrings. I have a pic of her in front of them with her old pack frame pack. You are making memories that will last a lifetime!,,

In 2019, there was a large herd of goats in the Goat Rocks Wilderness. Happy Trails. Good Luck, Rick
Wow! What a great and gorgeous day through goat rocks. Seems like you just sailed through it. I'd rather see face when you're talkin'...we can see the scenery behind you.😁🌻💛
Awwww I love your face💜
I think my favourite scenery day of the trail so far. Just jaw dropping beauty.
watching your videos and Capt Jack on the AT are the best, it feels like you two are talking to us rather than at us . must be some intuitive ability. and in topics that are interesting like hearing from a friend about their day
Beautiful views!
Great views. I have seen goats there in the passed.
You make hiking the pct so easy .. but there’s no way I could walk 30 miles a day.. you are amazing and thanks for sharing ❤
I like when you talk to the landscape and it answers, "Hello picture perfect perfect moment".... "Hello" 😂😂
I believe one's decisions are generally the right decisions. One can always "what if' but you are making great progress and will complete the miles you were forced to skip.soon enough.

I prefer to see your face. But, actually, I prefer you do whatever you prefer to do. I have really been enjoying your videos as they've been.

Magnificent views up there! Loved the video.😊

Wow, Knife's edge was spectacular. Your find on trail gives new meaning to a saddle tree. Wonder what happened there. Happy Trails. 👣👣👣
Wow! That was a spectacular day of hiking! The views were beautiful…
Wow! Beautiful views from mountain scenes to meadows. And, you are back to snow banks. Stay safe.
We love your happy face. It is your journey we are following. And the gear views. I wish people wouldn’t leave their discarded trash on the trail like the saddle. Most important be safe.
Mountain views look amazing!
Keep on north!
Goat rocks. I think humans who relate to goats add to the wall-pile
Knife's Edge YES!!!! It's probably good sometimes to not know in advance. I get vertigo just from watching everyone's videos😂😂😂
A beautiful face in a beautiful place!
Awesome views on this day of your hike
Magnificent views today, but you earned them!
Hi Juliane,
The decision making and the resulting path you took is what Carl Jung called Synchronicity.
Thanks for sharing.
Just beautiful 😊
Saw the rocks! Where's the 🐐 goat ? Roadrunner is dancing on Knifes edge. Thank you for sharing beautiful, breathtaking mountain and valley views! And yes you have a beautiful face 😔! We want to see your face and views
Love ur awesome & Beautiful face!!. Cant believe you are moving this fast. Seems like OR was gone in a blink.
I think all your decisions you made happened for good reaaons. Everything happens for a reason! You have met some wonderful people! 😊
Who gets out there early (and often?) each year to pack down a "trail" through those snow packs? 🤔
Blazing saddles 😂😂😂. Happy trails.🤘🏻🥾⛰️
Glad Mt Rainer was on the day you hiked.
I love the sun hoodie! What brand is it?
Good for you hike your own hike
WOW 🤩!
Yes, Knifes Edge!!
If this was a NG Special and you were doing a voice over…fine. But it isn’t. It is your adventure! I want to see your face as you talk with is. How am I supposed to see all the nuance that your face adds to the talking? And, when you deliver some sarcastic remark, I want to see the eyebrows go up and the smirk!

Did that hiker have a lawn chair strapped to their back???
Goat Rocks. An extinct volcano, which has some rocks which are good habitat for mountain goats. Hence the name. Confusingly, not named after rocks that looks like goats.
Have seen big herd of goats in Cispus Basin
That was nerve wracking watching you walk the knife's edge. I was wondering is the snow left from last year or has it snowed a little already ? Take care !
It is leftover.
Great place for Mountain View’s
Is it possible Somewhere knows how to fold space and time?
Decisions, decisions! :)
Nice trail
