Here are 5 photos beginning with a view of Castle Crags (photo 1). The PCT traverses 19 miles through the spires of Castle Crags National Forest between Castella and Dunsmuir CA. The towering spires and steep canyon walls are a unique volcanic sight. The sides of the spires are unstable and not suitable for climbing.Photos 2 and 3 are photos of the trail in an area I thought was peaceful - a place where a hiker can enjoy walking alone on the quiet earth.
Photo #4 is of a trough set up to carry water for hydraulic gold mining operations, but which was soon abandoned.
Photo 5 is a flower called Bear Grass.
Enjoy!

You are such an inspiration to me, I hiked the Muir when I was 16, now I'm 70 and just can't seem to do it anymore, but I do love to read about it.
Keep on Truck'n
