Lost Lake PCT Backpacking: Wrap
Sometimes I start a trip with low expectations, but the Pacific Northwest always delivers! I’m low key in love with this lake. There’s something special about a lake with a volcano towering over it. 🤣 I thought about renting a stand-up paddle board for an hour but I needed a nap instead. I want to try paddle boarding, and canoeing, sometime and this lake seems perfect.

Lost Lake PCT Backpacking: Day 2
Here’s a preview of what we’ve got going on today. Finished my PCT section and it was about 8 miles. Nothing to report there. Lost Lake is gorgeous and would be a great family car camping spot. I’m currently up on Lost Lake Butte with an amazing view of Mount Hood. Going to go back down and find a free spot to stealth camp at the lake. There’s a spot up here but no water.

nostr:npub1c5veaap3j957574k7v34p9z9nvvewwlnn4k64xamx9yge5dp06wq57jl5j They suck every year, at least on Pro. Silver (white) it is.
nostr:npub1e824g7vgcqed2f5dffngx2hmjmfa6xpsdkr9gfjtj7m5n9gey4fq2eppef Glad you liked it! It honestly was amazing. I wanted to ask the person in the fire tower if they get jaded looking at those views all the time but they weren’t there. 🤣 I almost have to go back as soon as possible.
nostr:npub18z496emc278pjjj8j40c3dyw3yl9tcx5pq5j7v82m9rzx20hc2vsr3pkkh Thanks for following! This was the best trip of the year for sure even bailing a bit early. If it wasn’t such a long drive I would have to spend lots of time up there.
nostr:npub1lsgz99d6xx7wnwf20k8q0uf3adhfxxvvzhxefd28y7a720fjh2tsudjmaj That definitely looks like a beautiful place to camp! Love the photo! 😍
nostr:npub1tretnkatjwyuuea0nt4xlu6zkfvu0qmw38t6ett4k3ayz54hup0qcdx5pn It’s terrifying how fast they are. If I had seen a brown bear I would have inched away for sure!

The only time i’ve left my pack was a few weekly ago to climb Old Snowy. I did put my GPS/InReach in my pocket for safety. I could also still see it from the mountain.
nostr:npub1w2rp838um7paggu9vrtr67pvxwrcc5pxnqs6f8f5rltu3zyxym9qk36msg Now that’s my idea of a vacation!
nostr:npub1cztz96nksedjkgwpatrqytwg2f8zsrtm5dg28ahuh0kwsjgjcftqjyfsm9 Agreed, i’ve used it since it came out.
Glacier Peak Backpacking: Day 1
The first photo is the view from near my camp on Cloudy Pass. Today has been incredible but tough. Hiked 20 miles with 6400’ elevation gain. This is not like the PCT, it’s rough trails that go straight up for hours. But i’m so happy, I wanted an epic long weekend and Glacier Peak Wilderness is providing that in spades so far.

nostr:npub14c6lmvsm46hqn8ghmm02852ncn0gjmjk4mc8uw72pk3fd9qsdutqj2vk4f Sorry to hear about that. 🙁
nostr:npub14dqpm33urc5p2w39xc9xrsf0e9yfcmkdz97nt0c8rrxumuhs8hvqvl534f Good choices! I’m excited about the Reese’s Pieces and Whoppers i’m taking with me this weekend.
nostr:npub1tzk6746lrfv20lqml6c0z4s8zrv2g4ftepfl3nx6vzjjq7jqzcqsrvdypz That’s awesome! I love succulents. Those yellow flowers and the rocks look cool too.
nostr:npub1ngnzmp832mxf36kzmughnad4x9wzshqu9fdsy0t4cng0txfg5gnshq4ay5 That’s cool! I guess I could hang out in Leavenworth after and do a day hike the next day as well. 🤔 Long drive for one day hike.
