East coast hiker Melanie Vogel ended her five-year journey on the Trans Canada Trail in Victoria Saturday afternoon.
On June 2, 2017, Vogel embarked on what she initially thought would be a two-year solo hike from Cape Spear, Newfoundland, to the Pacific Ocean.“All the big animals there, the wolves and grizzlies. I didn’t feel comfortable with it. Then I started walking and within my walk I’m like, ‘Okay, I’m ready. I’m doing the arctic as well.'”“The trail is very challenging for some people.
She added that throughout her journey, she did run into some wildlife, including a moose, some wolves and a grizzly bear in the Rocky Mountains in Alberta. “I came to the conclusion that such a long journey you can’t do alone. You need the support of people along the way,” Vogel stated.
