[pct-l] Trinity Alps dayhike

[Deems]

I took a long dayhike with Kelly yesterday in the extreme heat of the 
Trinity Alps. I hiked up the Little Mills Creek drainage to East Boulder 
Lake and then up to the Alps. I was looking for a place that Dr Bob had 
mentioned to me where he had camped in 1991 on his PCT hike. It's off trail, 
and was interesting, in that at least a mineral miner's homemade cupboard in 
an old hollow tree had survived for over 60 years. I then continued on the 
PCT to Middle Boulder lake and back to the truck. It was a very hot 15 miles 
with 4200 ft of gain and loss. I couldn't drink enough water!! The pictures 
are on pages 7,8,9 of my Alps gallery, starting after the map. I didn't see 
any thuhikers, but we did meet and combat thousands of "happy to eat me" 
deer flies and skeeters..
