Leaving big bear we could see the lake. |
Above about 7,000 feet the desert tends to be a pine forest. |
Pine forest makes for soft shady trail, very welcome after the desert. |
The burned areas tend to be kind of creepy.... |
This was taken 180 degrees from the previous picture; you can see some scorched trees at where the fire must have stopped. |
Blue sky, brown grass and white dead trees. |
PCT Bridge over deep creek, beat that AMC! |
Back to the low desert following the Deep Creek canyon. |
That sign has seen some shit! |
Canyon country |
I look like I'm riding a horse |
Another bridge! |
That Dam ain't doin' a dam thing |
Naked hiker headed to the hot springs 5 miles back. |
Mountains ahead! I hiked over those to Wrightwood. |
Walked by another dam. |
The PCT has to go along roads occasionally, it's not all wilderness. |
Occasionally you come by a cooler on the trail... |
A thirsty hikers dream! Fruit! Days from town you tend to dream about fresh fruit. |
Climbed up to Silverwood lake. |
Heading down canyons to Cajon Pass. |
Mountains to Wrightwood getting closer! |
Last Canyon before the McDonalds at Cajon Pass (sorry no pictures...) |
Water Cache ahead!!! |
Trail zig-zags |
Part of the 6500+ foot day of climbing |
Back to pines with a PCT marker ahead somewhere around 8,000 feet up. |
