Episode Summary: In this episode Basecamp is sick! We cover our third week on the PCT from Idyllwild, CA, through the San Jacintos to somewhere in the San Gorgonio Wilderness. We introduce yet another new category, "What are you drinking?", discuss the weather conditions in San Jac while we were hiking through, the importance of safety equipment in the snow, what water filter and bladder we used the entire trail, and an oasis left behind just at the underpass by Mama Bear.

Week 3:

/ Days 15-21: 3/20-3/26/22/ Total Trail Miles: 80.30/ Total GPS Recorded Miles: 85.53/ Cumulative Trail Miles: 232.10/ From: Idyllwild, CA to somewhere in the San Gorgonio Wilderness

Question of the Day: How did your taste for beer change during and after your first big thru-hike?
