Episode Summary: In this episode we cover that oh-so-lovely strip of the PCT known as the Hat Rim Trail. A hiker café awaited us before starting, but then the brutal heat was a poor hiking companion for Basecamp. Oh, we met Jupiter and didn’t even know it at first! A magical trail angel, Chris Hyde, treated us like royalty from Gondor, Deuces wore tailor-made custom-fitted cutoff jean shorts, we skipped Burney Falls to eat ice cream and order Jolly Gear matching shirts, two bucks ate our pee, Basecamp’s friends hosted us, and we took a poorly planned zero in Dunsmuir, which we would probably avoid over heading into Shasta! We wrap up in our Environmental Corner segment with my (Yeti) covering the findings from my capstone project (thesis)about trash on trail. I found a lot…..

Keywords: PCT, Pacific Crest Trail, cow ponds, Burney Falls, jean shorts, hat rim trail, Jupiter, trash.
