Finish from Big Bear 1 hike!
I have committed to hiking all 3 San Diego Trailblaze hikes for 2024! The first hike was originally a 27 mile section in Wrightwood but the trail was changed due to hard-packed snow along that section of the PCT. We completed 18.5 miles, maintaining our safety, beginning near Silverwood lake. The trail was primarily along ridgeline and fully exposed. Luckily, Mother Nature was kind and gave us an overcast day. The final 5.5 miles was a seemingly never ending up and down hike in a bouldered area but the whole hike was absolutely beautiful.
The 2nd and 3rd hikes will be 28 miles each in Big Bear, these hikes are completed in ONE day!
Update, Big Bear 1 hike is done! It was a super windy day! Our team did great and completed the 28 miles! I'm so proud of my teammates for digging deep and persevering through the tough times.
Next up is Big Bear 2 on June 1.
I'm still tying to get to my minimum goal for fundraising.
The minimum fundraising requirement is $2500/hike…so all 3 would be $7500. That’s almost enough to grant one full wish! With your financial assistance and my determination, we can do this!! Let's help bring hope and happiness to these children and their families.
Please help me get there!
I am excited to take on this year’s Trailblaze Challenge. In addition to the physical challenge, I have committed myself to raising the critical funds necessary for Make-A-Wish to grant the one true wish for each eligible child with a critical illness. With your help, it’s possible.
Did you know that Make-A-Wish grants more than 15,000 wishes nationwide every year? That’s a lot, yes. But that’s only 50% of the eligible kids. Every hour of every day, on average, three children are diagnosed with a critical illness. Every one of these kids needs a wish to give them strength and help them heal. I’m fundraising so more deserving kids and their families can know the true happiness, relief and renewal a wish can bring.

These essential wishes are only possible because of supporters like you. Together, we are transforming lives- One wish at a time!
