24 Jun Day 60 – Heat

Posted at 23:57h in PCT North California by

At mile 1521.1. Hiked 17.9 miles today.

With a heavy pack loaded with a 5 day resupply and a long climb in the heat, I decided to cut the day short and stop hiking at 4:30 PM. I also took several cooling off breaks to prevent the heat from causing problems. The steepest part of the climb over, I finally reached a small creek where I filled my water bottles and took a long recovery lunch.

The day was spent climbing up and around Castle Crag. Here are some photos of Castle Crag.
