Marci Kornegay's Pacific Crest Trail, Pt 5 - Finding Joy

Marci Kornegay completed the Pacific Crest Trail on September 21; a journey that started in the desert at the Mexican border on May 12. The ultimate finish, the touchstone that PCT hikers aim for at the Canadian border was denied her and her trail friends due to wildfires that closed the final 80 miles. And there were other closures that Marci had to navigate and reroute in Northern California and into Oregon. Having reached as far north in Washington State as she could, Marci turned south to complete the miles in California and Oregon that she had earlier had to jump. This time she was completely alone and for her it felt like two different hikes. it became a battle of her will to complete these miles against the quietness of the solitude and loneliness. Her determination to complete held strong. And she found the joy that made hiking the PCT so worthwhile. The sights, the sounds, the smells… all of it unique to the wild and desolate high country that makes the PCT so special. Alas there are still about 280 miles that were closed and she plans to return to before she can check this box. And yes of course there is a next big hike waiting for her: the Continental Divide Trail (CDT) 3,100 miles.
