Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

On the 8th of May I will attempt a self guided hike from the Mexican boarder to the Canadian boarder- 2650 miles.

Through the states of California, Oregon and Washington. Spanning from the border of Mexico to the border of Canada. It takes anywhere from four to six months of backpacking. The trail covers the most variable terrain the planet has to offer, from the heat of the Mojave Desert in Southern California to the high-altitude granite peaks of the Sierra. Then volcano-hopping in the central regions of Oregon before finally inching toward Canada through the Cascade Mountains in Washington.
