Coordinates: N 39 deg 33.369', W 120 deg 34.659': I started hiking in the dark this morning - BIG mistake! I missed the PCT at a junction and 2 hours later I realized I was heading north on a totally different trail - one that paralleled the PCT but with a mountain between the two. I had to decide whether to switch back to the beginning or use my GPS and go over the mountain. I chose to go over the mountain. It costs me a lot of time but I finally caught up with the guys who started out on Tuesday without me - around 6:30 pm. Oh well - a great 4th of July hiking the western U.S.A. This section is rich with views of massive volcanic rocks and beautiful mule-deer yellow flowers.
Keep hiking,
Greybeard

Three 30+ mile days in a row, including some off-trail hiking... Dude, you are a hiking machine.
