On Wednesday morning we said goodbye to Condor as he was continuing on south on his trip around the sierras.
We reached Kearsage pass pretty quickly and a few miles later we were back on the pct.
After going over Glen pass we descended to Rae lakes. These are the most beautiful lakes on trail so far. We were thinking about taking another swim but the mosquitos kept driving us on. As soon as you stop they pounce!
We reached the Woods creek camp quite early and decided to stay here. Joe Anderson, the amazing trail angel and husband of trail angel Terri from Casa De Luna, showed up and came over to say hi. He was hiking from Yosemite valley to Kearsage with a few friends.
Tomorrow we ascend both Pinchot and Mather passes so it might be a tough day.
About a dozen mozzies are sitting on the mesh outside my tent. They know I'm in here but they can't get in. Thank goodness for that!
Thank goodness indeed.
ReplyDeleteMosquito tip: If possible, choose a campsite where a steady breeze is blowing. It will keep the pests at bay. Cheers.
