The Pacific Crest Trail in Three Minutes

This video shows Mac, from www.halfwayanywhere.com hiking the entirety of the Pacific Crest Trail from the US/Mexico border to the US/Canada border across 2,660 mi / 4,200 km through California, Oregon, and Washington.
I created this version in response to my first video, "The Pacific Crest Trail (Three Second Thru-Hike)", I have recut the footage into a more compact format with updated music.
I hope this video continues to spread the beauty of the PCT and share its glory with hikers and dreamers alike.
For more about the PCT, visit www.halfwayanywhere.com/pacif...

    The trail creates little streams from all the foot traffic in which causes unnatural drainage of several areas

    You gotta make time in life guys. Waiting around for the "right" time to do anything will surely disappoint you. If you want to do something, make time. Do it and don't look back. If it doesn't work out for you, then you learn something. Take the time off from work and do it, even if it's just one big adventure that uses all your time. Quality experiences > Quantity.

But I'm thankful that I live in a time and place where people like you are kind enough to compile such amazing video and let me glimpse what could have been if I had been born healthy. Aaaaaaand now I'm crying, hahaha. Again, thank you. That was... something I never thought I'd see.
