When I was on the PCT just north of Truckee, with the wildfires everywhere, I ended up in a very quiet spot as a lot of people were evacuating and going around, something I eventually had to do.

But that night, just after I got the call that my intended destination was about to burn, I ended up in a large campsite that seemed quite eerie for being so empty.

I remarked to myself it seemed like it was fresh out of a horror movie.

@LnzyHou @CinnamonGirlE In the middle of the night, as I was waking up, suddenly fox screams from everywhere echoed through the woods, and I laughed.

"This would freak anyone out not used to it, they'd be running."

Unimaginable experience

@LnzyHou @CinnamonGirlE I miss being out there everyday. I could easily live out of my backpack, I feel. It was a joy to be limited to what I could carry, with my house and bed with me. Rolling into town to resupply and rest a day or two before vanishing back out again into the wood or the desert.

Slowly the miles ticked up as I headed north and watched the world change by degrees, the Mojave giving way to the Sierras, the Sierras to the Cascades, and each with their own beauty and joy.

As a lifelong wanderer, I understand.

My neighbor says “Wait until they are below your window at 3 AM screaming”

@LnzyHou @Madken65 which is exactly what they did to me the first time I ever heard them. I was convinced a woman was being attacked. 😳😂
