Peace of Mind While Thru Hiking the PCT and CDT

Monday Oct 17, 2022
Long distance hiking routes like the Pacific Crest Trail (PCT) or the Continental Divide Trail (CDT) are a once in a lifetime experience for many outdoor enthusiasts, but what about tackling three of these imposing treks within three years? Join this week’s episode of the 10Adventures Podcast as host Richard Campbell chats with Josh Durum about his experience completing the CDT and the PCT twice between 2020-2022.
Josh will be the first to tell you that, while similar in their scope, the Pacific Crest Trail and Continental Divide Trail are completely different beasts that require a good deal of determination, mental fortitude, and planning to overcome - just don’t plan too much! Plenty of experience thru-hiking across 8,000 miles of North America has left him with some insightful knowledge, perhaps none more important than to simply go with the flow and take the time to experience the journey in your own way; a practice that teaches both patience and self-discovery.
To learn more about thru-hiking adventures or to gain some inspiration for your own long distance treks, be sure to check Josh’s Instagram.
