Join us, Wesley "Yeti Legs" and Marie "Basecamp" Black on the YETI WALKS INTO BASECAMP: Talking. Thru. Hiking. Podcast, where we discuss all things in the wonderful world of hiking. Each episode will cover various hiking topics, the 181 days we spent on the PCT, interviews with fellow hikers/trail angels, or even chats with gear junkies. We are a married couple who love hiking and ultra running. In 2022, we sold everything to hike the Pacific Crest Trail with a continuous footpath, followed by completing the TMB. Since then, we've hiked even more long trails. Welcome!YETI WALKS INTO BASECAMP

  • E66 | PCT | Week 22 | Asphalt Desert & Bridge of the Gods |
    Jul 7 2025

    Episode Summary: We were hiking along an asphalt desert, quite literally...it was desert and farmland in Oregon, but we were walking the highway with no shoulder. Our thighs, shins, and feet were riddled with painful red splotches-heat rash. But thank goodness we had angels along the way, people going out of their way to offer us water, air conditioning, and shelter. We circumvented the Lions head closure with a road walk and rewarded ourselves with the famous Timberline Lodge buffer (every hiker’s dream). Our week 22 of the PCT was jam-packed, and concludes with a pretty stunning hiking speckled with waterfalls, and new hiker friends as we arrive at Cascade Locks. Cascade Locks signifies the end of Oregon (NOBO) and the beginning of the last state of the PCT, Washington. Oh, and Yeti was too drunk to say hello to his then PCT hero, and we stayed in an asylum converted to a hotel. We wrap with an environmental corner segment discussing the importance of ground truthing information both about our environment, and beyond.

  • E65 | PCT | Week 21 | 24-Hour Challenge, Angry Lava Rock, & Lionshead | Shelter Cove to Sisters, OR
    Jun 23 2025

    Episode Summary: Welcome to Oregon, the magic carpet,and our 24-hour challenge from week 21 on the PCT. In this episode of YWIB, we lasso 3 other hikers into our 24-hours of straight hiking from Shelter Cover Resort to…somewhere. At some point, we lose 2 folks to sleepiness, see a sasquatch/Jesus burn image, just about die from mosquitoes, and then FINALLY make it to 24 hours. Basecamp loses her wedding band, we spend 3 days in Sisters, resting…and then we begin our road walk around the Lionshead closure.

  • E64 | The Last Englishman | with Keith "Fozzie" Foskett [Dromomaniac & Author] | A Book(s) Reflection | On Thru-Hiking, Depression, & Ghosts
    Jun 16 2025

    Episode Summary: Inspiration. Inspiration is the first step towards action. Before we hiked the PCT in 2022, we were inspired to hike it, not only from online sources, but more importantly by hikers who took the time to tell their long-form stories, in books. Keith “Fozzie” Foskett wrote one of two books which gave Basecamp and me the final push we needed to commit to the PCT. Years later, here we are sitting down to chat with the author of The Last Englishman. Fozzie shares some of his highs and lows from an impressive thru-hiking career, covers topics from his favorite U.S. breakfast, a health scare on the CDT, struggling with depression, and even his ghostly experience on the PCT. This is less an interview and more catching up between old friends at a cozy pub. Listen in and share this time with us.

    We wanted to share Fozzie’s thru-hiking resume, and thebooks he’s published to give you an idea of just how much this guy has done. He’s a TRUE dromomaniac.


    Trails: El Camino de Santiago (the Camino de Francais route) in 2001, 2016 and 2019. El Camino de Santiago (the Via Podensis route) in 2001, and 2016. The Pacific Crest Trail in 2010. The Appalachian Trail in 2012. 500-miles on the CDT in 2015. Across Scotland in 2016 (600 miles). The following national trails in the UK: The South Downs Way (100-miles) at least 12 times. The North Downs Way (140-miles) 3 times. The Ridgeway (85-miles). The West Highland Way. The Cape Wrath Trail . . . and a lot of day walks!

    Books: The Last Englishman, Balancing On Blue, TheJourney In Between, High and Low

    A HUGE thanks to Fozzie for being on our podcast!
