You Bow to No One: A Pacific Crest Trail Film

From 19 March to 27 September 2025, I went on a very, very long walk.

The Pacific Crest Trail is a 2,650 mile footpath that travels from Mexico to Canada through California, Oregon, and Washington. It is an incredibly special journey, and I am happy to share mine with you through this documentary

This film was shot entirely on ​⁠​⁠‪@GoPro‬ and iPhone. It was filmed and edited by me, Katelyn Sather.

All music is licensed by Epidemic Sound. Listen here:   / pct-2025

This film is for everyone, whether you’ve hiked the trail, followed along on someone else’s journey, dream of hiking it one day, or are just curious about this strange and magical way of life out here in the wild.

Send it,
