Pat's Loop

Carlos Castillo set out on a misty solo run around the back of PKOLS (Mount Doug), where the layers of fog mirrored the layers of sound he described to his listeners. Navigating the twisting trails, he crossed the “fake bridges,” climbed through the muddy Upper Whitaker section, and admired nature’s slow pruning of fallen trees. As the rain intensified, he wrapped up his recording from the Whitaker Trail, another chapter in his ongoing journey of movement and connection with the wild.
