Hey, I’m Bri Jaskot.

I started Basin to Crest as a place to share the trips, routes, and places that keep pulling me back outside.

I enjoy everything from trail running and backpacking to biking, peak bagging, and long days linking together routes simply because they look interesting on a map.

The goal of this site is pretty simple: to share honest trip reports and the information I wish I’d had before heading out. You’ll find route beta, maps, water logistics, gear notes, nutrition, and the little details that can make planning your own adventure a little easier.

When I’m not out exploring, I coach trail runners and mountain athletes through my business High Desert Endurance.

While Basin to Crest isn’t a coaching website, many of these trip reports reflect the same approach I take with my athletes - thoughtful preparation, practical information, and a love for human-powered adventures.

See you out there.
