DAY 103: Fri.,Aug.8: 33.3 miles: TOTAL 2247.7

Hiked out of Panther Creek CG Trailhead. Coordinates: 46 deg.06'962"N, 121 deg. 45'386" W. Many ups and downs but also a lot of flat area with waist-high vegetation. At hiking for hundreds of miles, these climbs are fairly easy. The forests are lush with trees very much like those along the Appalachian, Douglas Firs, Alders and Maples. Also, I've had a few views of Mt. St. Helens and Mt. Adams. I've been sampling Salmon Berries, Rasberries and Thimble Berries along the trail. Great on-the-trail snacking.
Keep Hiking,
Greybeard
