Scenes from the Pacific Crest Trail

BUFF® Staff / 8-20-2015

Ever wondered what it might be like to hike (or run) along the Pacific Crest Trail? We figured plenty of our friends out there had, and thought it might be fun to have a few pics to share with the rest of you who are still dreaming of doing it. SO, we ran a contest on Instagram, asking people to post their favorite pic from along the trail (the first 20 to post won a Pacific Crest Trail style Original Buff. Pretty sweet, huh?)

Here's a gallery of our winners:
