If you’ve been looking at the Sierra Sun website this summer, you may have noticed that we’ve been adding video features to some of our stories.

Contemplating hand-written notes for a fifteen-day, 165-mile hike while talking to 14 other hikers, I invisioned more blisters and fatigue in my hands than on my feet, and decided our new-found video addition would allow me to capture what my fellow hikers had to say, as well as the sights and sounds of life on the trail.

You’ll here different members discussing the day’s hike, hopes for the trip, and all the highs and lows encountered on the trail.

You will also get a Greyson’s-eye-view of hiking, panoramas, and the occasional (and sometimes surprising) wildlife encounter.
