Wapato native and Army veteran Jessica Pekari recorded the fastest-known time hiking the Pacific Crest Trail from north to south.

Pacific Crest Trail"The PCT has roughly 500,000 feet of climbing, which is roughly climbing Mt. Everest 17 times," hiker Jessica Pekari said.

"My biggest takeaway from the Pacific Crest Trail is it's OK to fail,” Pekari said. “It's OK to have bad days because you don't know what tomorrow is going to be. It taught me to accept my struggles.” “This is kind of the same thing except I'm not running. I get to kind of slow down a little bit and process my emotions,” Pekari said.
