I saw a brief video yesterday made by a thru-hiker with a Go-Pro, and emailed the link to a
family member who had completed the trail last summer. He responded by sending me the link to a much better video (embedded above).
It's a relatively long film (40 minutes) as You Tube entries go, but that length emphasizes that a 2,663-mile journey cannot be effectively captured in a brief video.
Having watched only parts of it, I find the video a bit too clean and too beautiful - a bit too wordy as well. But then again I might just be envious as I'd love to through walk the pacific crest trail.

ReplyDeleteHmmm… years ago I made a video about the three months I'd spent walking from my home to Santiago years earlier. I wanted it to be short and concise and reflect the state of mind you get into when walking long hours each day. So, 2100 km in 4 Minutes are doable;-)

ReplyDeleteis there a link to that? can you share it if there is?
I-)
I think it was on Reddit if you want to scroll back beyond their front page or search a keyword.
DeleteYou can also go to Youtube and search for a topic there. that will get you dozens of PCT hikes.
thanks! i thought it might be a specific one about the PCT. that one you posted up there is nice, and, quite frankly, a refreshing change from the AT videos.
