it’s a beautiful day after the rain. Due to a breeze that was blowing, I hoped that my tent would be dry when I put it away.

Mild Hypothermia on the PCT
I have the tent up and I get inside, strip my clothes off and get into my sleeping bag. I have mild hypothermia and I’m shaking badly.

Hiking in Changing Weather
Weather forecast for tomorrow is rain, so I made sure that the tent was staked down good. It looks like I’ll be hiking in changing weather tomorrow.

Leaving the Washington Alpine Club
Today I head out, leaving the Washington Alpine Club, and head for White Pass, which will be my next stop. There is a fire reported not too far from the Pacific Crest Trail near White Pass. I’m hoping that doesn’t detour my hike like what happened up at Harts Pass.

Finally! Snoqualmie Pass Trailhead. It was a ten minute walk to the Washington Alpine Club hostel. I checked in and the host made me a couple of hot dogs.

Possibly the Hardest Hike Ever
Most of the trail was filled with skree. My ankles were rolling and twisting on the rocks. I even fell several times. It was possibly the hardest hike ever.

Lake Waptus Campsite
I ran out of water, but a source was a half hour away. After getting water, I headed to a Lake Waptus campsite. It is the only campsite for about 10 miles.
