E28: Getting a PCT permit - A crossover episode with A Long Walk North
You probably know by now that Catch Me Outside is hitting the Pacific Crest Trail this spring. What you might not know is what went into getting my long-distance permit for the hike.
You may or may not also know about another Canadian outdoor podcast called A Long Walk North. It’s a podcast about PCT hikers hosted by fellow Ontarian Dan Deveau. Dan and his daugher Chantal are preparing to hike the PCT in 2024, and as part of that journey, Dan interviews all kinds of folks with PCT stories to tell.
On today’s A Long Walk North crossover episode, you’ll get to hear me go through the agonizing (and very melodramatic) process of trying to apply for a PCT long-distance permit, plus a follow-up nterview with Dan about the aftermath of that process, the miracle that resulted in my eventually snagging a permit and some details of my trip planning.
