PCT to Herman Creek -Nick Eaton ridge to Indian Point

1

Hiked the PCT from Cascade Locks to Dry Creek, then to Herman Creek and set up camp. Next day we hiked up Nick Eaton Ridge and over to Indian Point. The area at Indian Point was a surprising cold micro-climate completely covered in thick white frost. Beautiful glittering ice covered everything from trees to rocks, and it ended abruptly. Sun with cool temperatures in the high 30's all three days.
