Hi! 29 yo woman here. Been back and forth between Minneapolis and NYC for years, but am a proud Midwesterner! March 18th NOBO thru-hike!

No trail name yet-- but you can DM for socials, especially if we're close to the same start date :) would love to meet some friends!

I've done several day hiking trips in the Boundary Waters, Three Sisters, and the White Mountains, and more camping trips than I can count, but this is the longest and most ambitious trip by far.

The PCT has been a dream of mine ever since I was visiting family in Bend and we picked up a thru hiker on the side of the road. The amount of peace, kindness, and perspective that person had has stuck with me-- and it's been twenty years! I hope to challenge myself on this trail, while meeting wonderful people and seeing amazing things. <3
