DAY 79: Tues., Jul.15: 34.1 Miles TOTAL 1565.6

Wanted to catch you up on my progress from Castella, CA on Monday. Due to the huge fire that is scorching Northern California, I hiked north on the PCT until the trail was closed. I covered 34.1 miles - COORDINATES: N 41 deg.16.900', W 122 deg.40.211'. I spent the night near Etna Summit. The trail was moderate, crossing and number of streams and lakes. I carried too much water. Could have just drank from any number of springs. Oh well. Did not go into the town of Etna - no mail expected so I skipped it.
Keep hiking,
Greybeard
