A soggy start to a good day

i start late, and rush a bit too much, and hike a lot.

I linger perhaps a bit too long in Mammoth, then start walking towards Tuolumne Meadows in Yosemite National Park.

A moderate day of hiking, without much snow at all

A fantastic day over Muir Pass to Piaute Creek

Hiked over Mather Pass to the base of Muir Pass

Hiked with two others up and over easy Pinchot Pass through austere high mostly treeless country to the base of Mather Pass

I descend down kinda scary Glen Pass, then cruise along to Woods Creek for the night, camping with two other PCTers

I felt euphoric all day... until the end.

I'm sticking with the original plan, and walking to Canada from Independence and Kearsarge Pass.

I wrestle with where to start the PCT again.

The toughest day on the trail: up and down endless steps

To Hongu, then onwards to Koguchi with 8km of road walking (ugh) and 8km of trail walking (yay)

A long walk to the shrines

Hiking in the mist, then an pleasant afternoon. An enjoyable day.

A walk around Kyoto in the morning, then we start our hike on the Komodo Kodo trail.

Packing for two and a half trips at once: the Sierra, the rest of the PCT, and the Kumano Kodo

My workflow for uploading and editing photos while hiking

Once again, section D frustrates me with fickle weather. I'm heading back home.

A short day to traverse the south ridge above Wrightwood, then into town for the afternoon and night.

A hard days walk uphill from I-15 and the Cajon Pass.

A return to the PCT for a few days, to pick up Section D

Backing away from the trail for a few weeks.

Up and over Forester Pass, at 13,200' the highest elevation on the PCT

An excellent hiking day, with an exhausting finish over slushy snow
