2nd day: Starting off fighting snow, heading north on the PCT as the trail eventually gets to a ridge line walk. We headed up, appropriately, Big Ridge for the day's destination, then returned to Paradise Lake.

The Pacific Crest Trail was looking a lot easier to travel as we left than when we passed the day before.

I finished up another set of backpacking posts, but am busy so might not get to advertising them before wandering off to more adventure.
