Timberline bar tonight. Rustic wood, amber lights, and company that made the miles fade. Twelve days solo — this night was worth the wait. Oregon keeps surprising me. 🍻🥃 #PCT #PacificCrestTrail #TimberlineLodge #Oregon #BarLife #TrailMagic #ThruHike #SoloHike #MountainLodge #GoodCompany
An iron fisted rock on the #PacificCrestTrail near Blue Lakes Road in #California holds a tight grip on a tree growing through its palm, For #RockinTuesday.

Found the "Here's Johnny" axe at Timberline Lodge. Couldn't resist. All work and no play makes Phoebe a dull girl, but tonight? Real bed, real meal, cocktail, and The Shining vibes. Day 12 treating me right. #PCT #PacificCrestTrail #TimberlineLodge #TheShining #HereJohnny #Oregon #Day12 #ThruHike
Checked into Timberline Lodge for one night. $177 for a basic room, but the fact that this is the hotel from The Shining sealed the deal. A real bed, real meal, hot shower, cocktail, hot tub. And zero ghosts... Probably. #PCT #PacificCrestTrail #Oregon #TimberlineLodge #TheShining #Day13 #ThruHike
Day 5. Last fully dry day. Didn't know it at the time - just a warm tent, a calm lake, and the quiet before everything changed. Six days later, I'm still drying out. #PCT #PacificCrestTrail #PCTNOBO #Day5 #LastDryDay #Campsite #LakeCamp #Day11 #OregonPCT #Hiking

I went 50 to 100 yards off a portion of the #PacificCrestTrail somewhat South of Lake Tahoe, #California, and found this widespread vista that was not visible from the main trail. A worthy side step for #Stunday.

Day 7. Mt. Jefferson through the mist. Forecast said a storm was coming. I knew it. But standing here, staring at this mountain, I had no idea how scary it would be in person. I found out. #PCT #PacificCrestTrail #PCTNOBO #Day7 #MtJefferson #ParkRidge #StormComing #OregonPCT #ThruHike #MountainViews
Day 8. Weather's still shit. Sitting in my tent, listening to rain, trying not to think about what that forecast meant. A little scary in here — but I made it over the ridge. That's what matters. #PCT #PacificCrestTrail #PCTNOBO #Day8 #RainStorm #TentLife #SoloHike #WeatherWait #OregonPCT #ThruHike
Nightly threesome: me, my headlamp, and my MP3 player. Playlist on shuffle — Don't Fear The Reaper came on as I snapped this. Rain on the fly. Cozy as hell. Solo hiking has its perks. #PCT #PacificCrestTrail #PCTNOBO #TentLife #NightInTent #RainyNight #Day7 #OregonPCT #ThruHike #SoloHike
Watching rain drip into my cook pot. Made it over Mt. Jefferson's Park Ridge. Now I wait. Wet forest, misty trees, and the sound of dripping. Zero day well earned. #PCT #PacificCrestTrail #PCTNOBO #MtJefferson #ParkRidge #ZeroDay #RainCamp #Day7 #OregonPCT #ThruHike
3 minutes total. 4 days of funk washed away. Cold, clean, and smelling human again. The view back was worth every shiver. Playing with this cinematic filter — making my desperate scrub feel like a movie. #PCT #PacificCrestTrail #PCTNOBO #HeadLake #AlpineLake #Day8 #OregonPCT #ThruHike #ColdPlunge
Four days without a shower & wet clothes. I could smell myself. Head Lake — one minute in, one minute to scrub, one minute out. High 50s, cold enough to steal your breath. But desperate times. In I went. #PCT #PacificCrestTrail #PCTNOBO #HeadLake #AlpineLake #Day8 #OregonPCT #ThruHike #ColdPlunge
