β¦ Synopsis
"You're hiking how far solo?" "How are you going to hike the entire John Muir Trail when you've never even been backpacking before?"
These were the two most common questions that accompanied baffled looks from Christy's corporate coworkers when she mentioned her plans. Legitimate questions Christy had pondered herself. Yet, she couldn't fully express the pull to hike more than 220 miles in the California High Sierra Mountains. She only knew that her whole being told her that she needed to. After six months of research, reading books, watching documentaries, and training hikes, Christy began walking southbound on the world-famous trail.
Throughout her wild journey, Christy encountered freezing temperatures, pelting hail storms, and losing her way, but found trail family, incredible views, and experiences that would change her life forever. Hiking up and over ten different mountain passes gave Christy a lot of time to think about why her nine-year marriage was falling apart, gave her the chance to truly embody her individualism, time to make new friends, and the strength she would need on and off the trail. Her life could never again be the same.
This is one woman's account of the three weeks she spent on the iconic trail.
