Episode 218: 2023 FKT of the Year with Karel Sabbe and Jenny Hoffman

Category
End of Year

This week we’re thrilled to be joined by our two FKT athletes of 2023: Jenny Hoffman and Karel Sabbe. From not one but three Pacific Crest Trail records, to new FKTs on classics like Nolan’s 14 and the Paddy Buckley Round, to new mountaineering benchmarks on Denali and Mont Blanc, 2023 was one for the history books.

Description

The Nootka Trail is a remote coastal route on Nootka Island, accessible only by float plane or boat. Though only 36km, it is usually completed as a 4-6 day backpacking trip because of the complicated logistics and rugged terrain. The trail begins in Starfish Lagoon and ends in Yuquot, running along beaches and through deep forest.
