To recap: we have skipped north to the Oregon \/Washington border and have started hiking the PCT southwards to avoid the heavy snow in the Sierras.This morning we decided to hike an alternate route that would take us to some waterfalls. We hiked two and a half miles to the trailhead only to find that the trail was closed due to a recent bushfire. Fortunately we got a lift back to our starting point.This point is the lowest elevation on the whole trail, so naturally we started by climbing up 3300′. The path wound through lovely forests (and also some burnt out sections).<\/p>\n

Around 3pm the weather turned worse and we ended up with rain, hail and even a bit of snow. It was a long trudge to one of the few tent sites and we were glad to be able to pitch our tent at 7:45 with the rain almost stopped. We expect a cold night.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
