E56 | Pacific Crest Trail | Week 16 | Somewhere Near Mt. Etna to the Midpoint & Hat Creek Resort & RV Park

In this episode of Yeti Walks Into Basecamp: Talking. Thru. Hiking. we cover week 16 on the Pacific Crest Trail where we FINALLY hit the midpoint of the PCT, that's 2653/2 = 1326.5. Most of the hiking felt like it was in burn zones, but there was still greenery out there, somewhere, over yonder. Yeti picks up a baby squirrel and skips lunch before a massive climb and just about crashes, then chugs teriyaki sauce. We do some early morning hiking through Lassen Volcanic NP and then barely make it to the Hat Creek RV Park for some cold drinks and snacks before it rains, go figure. Oh, and Yeti went fishing for bears! In our Environmental Corner we discuss gray/grey wolves (Canus lupus) and the Endangered Species Act of 1973 alongside what our current administration is looking to change about it. And on a happier note, we finish with a squeaky clean, hot off the recording studio song from The Fire Once Lost: Someone Else Just For You. Give it a listen!!!Topics: PCT, Pacific Crest Trail, stay current, environment, ESA, wolvesLinks:Earth Justice: ESA/Gray Wolves~Created, hosted, and produced by Yeti Legs and Basecamp (aka Wesley and Marie Black)~Edited by Aj Jones Intro and Outro track is Appalachian trail by “The Fire Once Lost”, an American/Bluegrass artist from Denmark.
