The Pacific Crest Trail was my first long-distance hike, actually, it was my first real hike ever, so when I started planning, I had no gear what so ever, which meant I had to buy everything. I spent months researching and reading about gear 🙂 During my researching, I realized that most of the gear…
Kendra Allenby likes the messy stuff. Her cartoons,which frequently appear in The New Yorker, explore the absurdity of human life wherever it unfolds—cramped apartments, crowded bars and now, the Pacific Crest Trail.in The New Yorker, explore the absurdity of human life wherever it unfolds—cramped apartments, crowded bars and now, the Pacific Crest Trail.

You might know that I got a hiking tattoo before I started my thru-hike of the Pacific Crest Trail, that was all the way back in 2017, which You can read about here.It’s in Danish though, so you might need to Google translate it 🙂 Back then I also decided that I wanted another tattoo…
This corner of my website is basically just a boiled down version of the site I made specifically for my PCT adventure. I just wanted to get all my travel info/stories in the same place so I decided to copy most of my old website over here. Me And The PCT I started the Me…
Post PCT or (PPCTSD) Post Pacific Crest Trail Stress Disorder 🙂 Getting back to normal life, real life, civilization etc. has been hard for me – way harder than I actually thought it would be. The PCT has shown me how beautiful a simple life can be. And by simple I mean just having to…
On September 14. I arrived back in Copenhagen after completing the PCT (Pacific Crest Trail). And I just want to show how the trail affected my weight before and after my PCT 2018 thru-hike. Sadly I didn’t get my weight before or after, but during my journey (I think it was somewhere in northern California) I…
My Exciting adventure has now begun, so the rest (or at least that’s the plan) of my adventure will be happening on my Youtube Vlog / channel – in English! 😉 It will be too time-consuming to have a video diary and a blog as well, so, for now, it will be videos 🙂 My plan is…
Now I got my gear dialed down to what I will bring on the PCT. So this is my setup for the PCT – almost 🙂 I still need to buy water storage (I bought the Cnoc Vecto water bladder, but the first 2 I got leaked water) and water purifier – which will be…
When I first started to research and plan for my 2018 thruhike of the PCT, I had a clear indication that camera equipment should be kept to an absolutely minimum. Now one year later, pre hike realisations – I’ve come to realise that I might be straying a little from that initial idea 🙂 Late in…
Sony Nordic donerer en stak memory cards. Sidste opslag på dansk! 😉 Promise Sony Nordic sponsorerer memory cards til turen. Tirsdag morgen, klokken er 8:43 og jeg er på vej ud af døren på arbejde, da min telefon ringer. Fra ukendt nummer. Fedt nok, så er telefonsælgerne på jagt igen. Men nysgerrig som jeg jo…
Her er historien om Rod og de tabte kilo 🙂 Samtidig er det en god anledning til at lave et “før billede”, så jeg kan sammenligne min krop før og efter min thruhike af The Pacific Crest Trail. Allerede i november fornemmede jeg, at jeg ikke ligefrem ville få masser af muligheder for at træne…
Nu er jeg nået dertil i processen hvor “alle ting” er på plads, og the waiting game kan gå igang. Det er så den sværeste del af det hele må jeg indrømme 🙂 tiden slæber sig afsted, men jeg tror jeg kan vinde det der the waiting game 🙂 Der er stadig er par småting…
Det begynder at gå hurtigt nu! Tiden nærmer sig med hastige skridt, og mine sommerfugle i maven bliver større og større!Min checkliste til Pacific Crest Trail er der styr på (ihvertfald de “store” ting). Så jeg kan ikke rigtigt gøre så meget mere, andet end bare at vente… Og kontrollere mit udstyr osv. – igen…
Som enhver anden hobby eller sport, er der en del ord som bliver brugt af folk som vandrer meget. Derfor har jeg lavet en lille “ordbog”, eller liste om man vil, med de typiske ord man kan støde på undervejs. De fleste af ordene er selvfølgelig på engelsk (eller, det er de faktisk alle sammen)…
Nu bliver det muligt at du kan følge min tur LIVE. På Black Friday investerede jeg i en GPS/SOS device. Sådan en kan sende GPS koordinater, så man løbende kan se på et kort, hvor jeg er. Den jeg valgte at købe var en SPOT Gen3. Den giver mig også mulighed for at få kontakt med et…
