Mileage Mike went hiking August 27, 2012 10.5 miles 1,250 feet gained
The day started out very hazy with low visibility from fires but cleared as the day progressed. We hiked the PCT around most of Mt. McLoughlin but had no views :(. Met 2 through hikers, Dazzle and Magellan, who talked about all the wildfire issues in California. Beautiful wilderness but it's a wildfire waiting to happen with the huge (and I mean huge) amount of dry wood under the canopy!
