Trout Lake to FS 5603

Onward to Trout Lake
Today, it’s onward from Yakima, WA to Trout Lake, WA. I had hitchhiked to Yakima since it is on the way to Trout Lake, so here I am and here I go.

Stevens Pass and Leavenworth
To get to Leavenworth to pick up a provision box and rent a room (still no Internet), I had to hitchhike. There is no pubic transport that I could find.

Stevens Pass Tomorrow
My camp last night was a lot better than had I camped with that obnoxious family mentioned in yesterday’s post. I slept peacefully. Today, on to Stevens Pass.

Pearl Lake – Nope
The goal was to go about 13 miles and set up my tent at Pearl Lake. I’m getting close to Steven’s Pass, and I need to plan my arrival.

Beautiful View of Valley
The trail opened up into a beautiful view of a valley. I was hiking without the benefit of tree cover. It was quite striking.

Rain on the Trail
It did start raining in the afternoon. Rain is not my friend. It usually means that I’ll end up with hypothermia. Fortunately, I was close to several campsites.

Climb to Fire Creek
The climb to Fire Creek is the reason I brought my microspikes with me. There was supposed to be a lot of snow at the very peak.

Punisher on the Move
I met a hiker that had started in Campo on the Mexican border. His trail name is Punisher. He told me he started the trail on April 29th, which is 82 days ago.
