9.9 miles of hiking • 1750' elevation gain •

My wife was helping teach in summer school so I hiked solo today. I was just hoping to meet any PCT hikers and again handout Oreo Cookies. I only met one couple (Southbounders with no trail name) at the intersection of the PCT and the Tamanous trail. The Greenleaf Creek water flow was weak, at best, into Gillette Lake. The clearcut past Gillette is quite a sore sight, and full of Poison Oak. It won't be long before the Poison Oak is unavoidable, and needs to be brushed out! Once past the clearcut, the trail is nicely shaded and much cooler. I had a great day but wished there were more PCT hikers to talk with.
