Sherry Winslow, from Seattle, is known on the trail as “Night Rider!” She hiked the Pacific Crest Trail last summer from Mexico to Canada and is now prepping for a summer of adventure on four different trails.
She is an inspiration for those that need a nudge in the direction of Mother Nature.
Her family has not been favorable to her explorations, but she goes anyway. Sherry describes showing up at the Mexican border with the whole summer ahead of her as she hiked north to Canada.
Her biggest trail this summer will be a thru hike of the Pacific Northwest Trail. Her time on the PCT in the Pasayten Wilderness sparked the interest for this long trail.
