All the gear I ended up with on the PCT.

Call this the awkward 'everything else' post: gear that I didn't need during the day when I was hiking, and too bulky for a stuff sack.

The long detailed list of everything I packed for camp--and the most overlooked camping item

Backpack, tent, sleeping bag, pad. The Big Four gear I took on the PCT. Plus a bonus.

A hot hiking day into Stevens Pass.

Another great, warm day in the Alpine Lakes wilderness.

Having a great time. Scenic and just relaxed.

A stunningly scenic day, rejoining the PCT east of Seattle after breakfast with Eric, and walking along ridge lines in the warm sun. Plus huckleberries.

A fast day to an omelette, then resting through the heat, until a 6 mile evening hike

A fantastically scenic day hiking through the Marble Mountains

Bright sunshiny happy hiking day! Lots of wildlife and flowers.
