Our fearless leader shows us the way south on the PCT! |
In mid July, we ventured out in to a wild stretch of mountains east of the Trinity Alps and west of Mt. Shasta. After a night of car camping near Scott Mountain, we began a backpacking trip on the PCT near the headwaters of Trinity River. Our destination was a collection of beautiful mountain lakes called Deadfall Lakes, three miles in. We spent a wonderful couple of days at the lake with a star-filled night in between. It was a classic mid-summer trip with a warm sun and cool water for swimming.
