September 3, 2008 Pacific Crest Trail

Destination: Northern slopes of Mt. Adams, Mt. Adams Wilderness
Miles: 27

Adrian: Around 5 a.m. this morning Kirsten said she felt a mouse run over her head. I handed her my headlamp and she spotted it in the corner of the tarp and watched as it supposedly fled the scene. True story? You decide.

Today we hiked in perfect weather, sunny and 60s with little wind. We could see for miles and had great views of Rainier, Adams, Helens, and Hood.

The huckleberries are still going strong and every so often we see professional pickers in the woods. They have commercial licenses and sell their berries to local merchants and restaurants.
