DAY 106: Mon., Aug.11: 15.5 miles: TOTAL 2302.8



Woke up to see the fog at the top of the mountain was worse than last night. I dropped off from my campsite at 6,000 ft. elevation and dropped down to 4,500 ft at Tieton Pass and then climbed up over another ridge at 6,600 ft. The trek down to White Pass was viewless and uneventful - misty fog most of the morning.

Get this - I passed by a lake called Little Mosquito Lake. In my opinion most of these lower elevation lakes are 'mosquito-ridden' lakes. The mosquitos can eat the flesh right off of you if you stand still for very long.

Roadrunner (photo #1) and I met Shirley at White Pass around 10:30 am. Spending the night in Packwood and plan to day-hike 30 miles to Chinook Pass tomorrow. Coordinates for home tonight: 46 deg. 36'470" N, 121 deg. 40'184" W.
Keep hiking,
Greybeard
