[pct-l] Lemah Fire (~600 acres) Diverting PCT traffic on Section J

[Matthew Thyer]

Just wanted to let you all know that there is a pretty serious trail closure underway right now on Section J north of Snoqualmie Pass because of a long burning fire that has recently started to flare up again.  Looking at the maps the detour to get around the fire will probably add at least a day onto most hiker's passage through this section.  This closure extends high enough that you cannot approach Spectacle Lake as best as I can tell.  It was really smokey most of the day and the fire is creating its own weather.

 

Be careful out there, but enjoy the views.  Incredible world we live in for sure.
