This is the seventh video in a longform series on my 2022 westbound throughhike of the 1200 mile Pacific Northwest Trail. It's a vlog that details my experience hiking the trail and tries to share some of the beauty and meaning that I found along the route.

This installment covers the section between the the town of Republic, WA and the town of Oroville, WA. This was a pretty calm section with some lovely highlights on the Kettle Crest and in getting to experience the landscape open up a lot more into drier ecosystems with interesting and diverse kinds of forests that are different from any other point along the PNT. There was certainly also a lot of roadwalking in this section in 2022.

Check out the website for the Confederated Tribes of the Colville Reservation, it has an amazing overview of the history of the Tribes in the area and even has audio examples of how to say their names in Salish!

Thanks very much for watching. And thanks to the PNTA for all their work on the PNT.

The score in these videos is all music I have made to accompany them using Ableton.
