In the summer of 2022, I hiked 1,000 miles on the Pacific Crest Trail through Oregon and Washington. This experience was life changing, yet somehow felt like a natural step forward in my love for hiking and being outside. I brought my camera on the hike, and here you can find a selection of my favorite images from the trail!

Oregon was the start of my journey on the PCT. I passed through impressive forests, saw some incredible waterfalls, and followed the chain of the Cascade volcanoes north. I started my hike at the end of June, and made it to the Bridge of the Gods on July 31st. After passing into Washington on August 1st, I continued north, pushing my physical limits. I began consistently hiking 20 miles a day! I made it to the northern terminus of the trail on August 29th, the end of my journey.
