Wildfires and their burn scars have made portions of the trail more hazardous and forced hikers to contend with closures on quick notice. Meanwhile, when fast-moving wildfires strike, many rural communities along the trail are finding themselves responsible for helping vulnerable hikers. “Wildfire season is lasting longer, becoming less predictable, affecting more trail, more trail users and more trail communities,” Rylee said. The signals of climate change now stick out on the PCT, said John O’Brien, a California climate scientist who grew up near the trail and hikes on it frequently. Karen Altergott passed through this burn zone in Lassen Volcanic National Park while hiking the Pacific Crest Trail in 2022.

Editor’s note: Runner and writer Emily Halnon’s new book, “To the Gorge: Running, Grief, and Resilience & 460 Miles on the Pacific Crest Trail,” was released on May 7. CNN —When my mom died, I spent a lot of time trying to stuff away my grief. My mother felt the weight of cancer, but she insisted on continuing to live in her wholehearted way. I was worried the Pacific Crest Trail run would be too much. But as I kept training, I discovered that running was one of the best places to process my grief.

Get the latest news in aviation, food and drink, where to stay and other travel developments. AWOL at the airportA Swiss International Air Lines plane took off from Zurich this past weekend filled with passengers but without a single checked suitcase on board because of a lack of ground staff. “It was possible to deliver most of the luggage to Bilbao the following day,” a SWISS spokesperson told CNN, while the rest arrived on Monday. In happier news, a Delta passenger’s dog that went missing at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International, the world’s busiest airport, has been found safe after three weeks.

Party of sevenOlen Netteburg (far left,) his wife Danae and their five children Lyol, Zane, Addison, Juniper, and Piper on the Continental Divide Trail. “We started reading some articles online to the kids about the Pacific Crest Trail and the Continental Divide Trail,” says Olen. Once things had settled down, they began reading up on “everything about having a baby in the wilderness” in order to be able to take on the Continental Divide Trail with their newborn. But having to carry a newborn along with them didn’t slow this hiking family down at all. In fact, they were able to complete Continental Divide Trail in six months, a month less time than the Appalachian Trail had taken them.

In 2016, physical and emotional injuries from his military service in Iraq had made life feel unbearable for Will “Akuna” Robinson. “Between my chronic pain, nerve damage, blood pressure, depression, anxiety and insomnia, I was taking almost 30 pills a day,” he recalls. “I had never been hiking before in my life.” Within weeks he was at the PCT trailhead in Southern California. Three years later, in 2019, he became the first known Black man to have conquered the Appalachian, Pacific Crest and Continental Divide scenic trails—America’s triple crown of hiking. In 2021 ESPN anointed him “the trailblazing superstar of thru-hiking,” the term for hiking a long trail end-to-end.
