Don’t know the time, don’t know where I am, I just know I’m very, very happy.

Slack packing an easy 14 miles today (between Onyx summit and the top of town). A nice downhill. The funny thing is that it was snowing at the hotel in *town* this morning and it’s gorgeous on the trail. Mile 257.4

Christian from Germany about to earn his PCT trail name: Grande Burrito. Ya, he ate the whole thing.

Hiker Storytime and the bear. There is a great story behind this photo!! It goes something like this: The first time Storytime hiked this part of the PCT, the sun was setting and the trail was getting dark. He had hiked in the dark before but suddenly there erupted the roar of a lion, and he’d never heard a lion while hiking before. He turned around and ran the other way, terrified. The next day he discovered the “caged animals” of the PCT, and realized his mistake.

Even if the snow won’t stick, the ground is still white!

Hasta la vista, Cabezon. 2nd windiest city in USA? No doubt.

Canadian hiker Kim heading under Interstate 10 after a miserably hot and super windy desert death march. We pushed so hard to get through that wind and deep sand – exhausting!

Slight buzzkill.

Mile 202. Not sure if you can see them down there, but there are hundreds of wind mills in the San Gorgonio Pass.
