We are a pair of hiker-wannabe's from Toronto, Canada is working towards a goal of thru-hiking the Pacific Crest Trail together. Dan is at the mid-point of his life and about to celebrate a half-century and Chantal is now old enough to enjoy a cold glass of cider in Canada. By the time they embark, she will be able to enjoy a Northwestern craft IPA in the United States. This episode is about the trail and to help our family and friends understand how big this hike is. It's broken down into two segments and the next one that compliments this one will drop next.
