The irony: Bucks Lake Wilderness is open but the PCT is closed from the
northern Plumas NF boundary (north of Bucks Lake Wilderness) to
Quincy-LaPorte Road (south of Bucks Lake Wilderness). Hm, doesn't that
mean the PCT thru Bucks Lake Wilderness is closed?

>  Trail information on Plumas NF  web site.
> Pacific Crest Trail - from Bucks Summit to Spanish Peak Open
> Pacific Crest Trail - from Belden Open
> Pacific Crest Trail - north to Lassen National Forest Boundary Open

Yes, but that website also says it was last updated on May 17...

Thanks, Matt and Piper's Mom, for keeping us up to date - especially
since the government websites aren't doing a great job of it.
