Highlight of your trip
There was a lot - the majestic trees and diverse landscapes, the wildflowers; crossing the inlets; the wildlife; the ocean; the history of the trail towns. But most of all: the people. I was very lucky to meet a lots of amazing people when I was told this journey would be solitary. Especially I met my trail (track) family and stuck with them until the end which made this trip very special.
