Since Ken got married this year, I looked for new hiking partners. The Shibleys were gracious
to invite me on another John Muir Trail adventure. We hiked the entire 220 mile trail in 14 days -- a vast improvment
from 8 years ago. It was the most pleasant hike I have done during this decade. I did not keep a journal this time, but I did take lots of pictures. Click the picture to the left to see them.

For 34 days in the summer of 2008 Ken, Wes and I hiked the entire PCT in Oregon (430 miles),
starting where Ken and I left off in 2007. It was harder than I expected. Ken kept his journal
here. I documented the hike with our new
"auto Journal" which can be viewed here here.

In the summer of 2007, Ken and I completed the California section of the PCT.
This trip lasted 23 days. We hiked for about 350 miles, and crossed the California/Oregon border. We essentially
completed what we started in 2006. Ken kept on-line journal here.
I kept a picture and audio journal that you can access by clicking on the picture to the left.

In July 2006, Ken, Wesley, Elliot, and I went for a long (38 day) hike
on the PCT, starting where Ken left off the year before. Ken and I both kept trail journals on online.
These can be found here: Dal's and
Kens's. Ken's, by far, has more pictures. He even
posted short videos throughout his log. |

In May 2005, I hiked the first 180 miles of the PCT with Kenneth. |

Our beloved JMT Trip in 2004. We call this trip "JMT Revisited". JMT stands for "John Muir Trail",
which is one of the best sections of the larger PCT. It is "Revisited", because we also did the same trail in 2001.

In July 2005, I hiked for a few days on the JMT with Wesley and Allen. Our trip was cut short because of the snow, but it was still interesting. |
