What is it like to be a cartoonist in the midst of a five-and-a-half-month journey along the Pacific Crest Trail? Knowing how much Imgur loves both epic journeys and talented artists, Kendra Allenby drew us a little deeper (sorry, not sorry) into her story. Coors Light and Great Big Story partnered to create this amazing series. Find out more here.

Wow. I’m into this.

Coors, can I go on a hike? I can produce nothing except memories and footprints, but it sounds like a good time
axeltwedrok
+1 for sound. Great shot of crater lake, been in that exact spot.

As an avid hiker myself, stories like this are so awesome! The PCL is an epic trail. Respect to Coors Light for bringing this to Imgur :)
DeadArcadian
It's good to have coors on a hike, gotta stay hydrated
mutsubu
Sure all those craft beers are nice, but sometimes I just want a Coors Light. Especially when I'm playing beer pong.

I love Great Big Story, they tell truly amazing stories.
Harkencur
dude. stop it. Showed me this ad 3 times across 8 posts.
OhBoyWhatABeer
As someone who has been lucky enough to spend time on the PCT, this is awesome. Envious of Kendra and thanks for telling her story Coors.
YokoOhNoUDint
Ad or not when she kissed her husband first before anything else after finding the lake was really sweet to me.
precrimapr
My boy is getting ready to hike the CDT and our whole life is starting to focus on getting ready for and supporting the trip. Exciting.
poopoobrain
nthis makes me miss hiking soo much :C I want to live outside for a couple years... maybe a tree house :V
heyjude168
Wow, was a worried she wouldn't clear the rocks when she jumped! I can imagine a cold Coors Light would taste amazing if hiking on the PCT!
stayshinycapn
Stuff like this always makes me wish I could do any kind of art

Practice practice practice. Only 10,000 hours to master anything. Believe in the me who believes in you!
badmonkey0001
Seriously, it just takes practice. If you spend all of your potential practice time saying "I can't", then of course you wont.
ijack
The best thing about art is that it’s completely subjective. Anything can be art and somebody, somewhere will appreciate it.

You can. Find a copy of Corita Kent’s book and if you want to be Inspired google Rainbow Swash

Wow, her drive is beautiful. And his love of her is magical.

Every thru hiker wishes a beer company would sponsor their hike, including me.
Kopar
My favorite college beer but I'm not entirely sure if that's a compliment or not.
egyptianqueen
Mine too. Coors > Bud Light always.
MalinorTheMagnificent
Fuck off Coors.....
sharkmommychompers
I despise booze... its damaged me and my family too much.

Jyncs
Any ad that shows up to me more than once within 5 pictures has lost any thoughts I had of purchasing it. Not that I would get Coors anyway
DiabloD3
Can we not advertise alcohol on this site?
EyesOnICE
I want to dislike this because it's an ad however the presentation and purpose is honestly powerful and respectable.
NightPainPoe
Maybe if the art didn't look like kid's doodle it wouldve been inspiring.
NumptyDumptyLump
I like this but don't like how fast the subtitles sre.
vanessaplatt

goforthandconquer

Coors sponsored someone's PCT hike? That's kinda cool.

LiteralVampirePotBellyGoblins
Figures they'd have to pay someone to haul their shitty beer on a hike.
BillMartin1
Is Coors still non union.
badmonkey0001
I have no idea.
Kukiniloa
No it's pretty lame.
MikeMcAwesome91
Cant argue with that logic

Thanks!
usdaspprovedOC
No, it’s kinda coors...
TheRelevancyOfMyNameIsRelativelyIrrelevant
really turned off by a beer company doing this kind of advertising
nero4ty2
why?
TheThoroughbredOfSinBadHorse
I’m really turned off that they didn’t sponsor the Colorado Trail instead. Since, you know, Colorado.
lardlungs
Youre such a hipster
shortbuswastaken
I love how people think it cant be cool, and a PR stunt at the same time. Like they wouldn't go on a safari if Pepsi paid them. Hypocritical
shortbuswastaken
cunts.
ionlyreplytodumbpeople
They did it to get your reaction.
thisisagoldfish
themightybanana
It worked.
DavidAndrews
well sure, but they could have done it in any number of uncool ways and the did this instead.
ionlyreplytodumbpeople
It's basically the equivalent of Mexican cartels opening a school or a hospital. ABI and SABMiller are cartels.
badmonkey0001
That's what I was thinking. If you can spend ad money in a good way, that's a good thing IMHO.
DavidAndrews
It's gonna get spent, might as well do something as well as advertise.
CoolHandRK
Yeah no one paid for my AT hike.
fettuccine
What's an AT hike
ferb
Appalachian Trail. Runs from Maine to...Georgia?
fettuccine
Cool thanks!
CoolHandRK
Correct though I went from Georgia to Maine.
nero4ty2
just curious, why SN instead of NS? I've been wanting to do it for years, need to wait for retirement now i think
