PCT Section H Backpacking

After last weekend’s nightmare fuel, I’m in heaven once again. Hiked 2,100 feet up to a small mountain peak in the Cascades. No one around for miles. Views of Mount Hood and Adams outside my tent. Trees are blocking the light west wind. I packed out honey buns for breakfast. Couldn’t feel better. 😍🤣🏔️

PCT Section H: Part 2

Enjoyed the section from Rock Creek to Windy River Road. Retreated back home Saturday evening to avoid an impending atmospheric river. Bunker Hill was the most surprising feature along this small section, wish I would’ve had the time to climb it. Current plan for this weekend is to continue north to see what the snow situation is like on the ground.

PCT Section H: Part 3

Back on the trail heading north toward the Indian Heaven Wilderness. I’m excited to see what the snow conditions are on the ground. That will determine what happens next. I don’t have an ice ax or know how to use one (yet) but I have micro spikes and the sense to turn around when it gets sketchy. 😁 Planning to explore Big Huckleberry Mountain and maybe Grassy Knoll if I can’t get too far north.

@andrewbriscoe outstanding views!

Do you have wifi during all of your journey?

@askesis Thanks! Cell is going in and out but it’s a lot better than it was a few years ago. I also have satellite messaging when needed.
