Meet the Leesons, Eugene Trail Angels serving up snacks and support for PCT hikers!

Every summer, the Leeson family from Eugene, OR becomes a lifeline for Pacific Crest Trail (PCT) hikers. As dedicated Trail Angels, they set up a welcoming spot with hot dogs, drinks, and calorie-packed snacks, providing much-needed nourishment for those tackling the daunting 2,700-mile journey. Their acts of kindness are part of a larger community that enriches the PCT experience.
