[pct-l] Mt McLoughlin climb

[Deems]

After a 31 year rest since my last climb, I returned to the top Mt 
McLoughlin (9495ft)  on July 3. I hiked a short piece of the PCT on the 
route, and it's only 4 miles from the PCT to the top.  I was presented with 
a great view north to Three Sisters, and south to Mt Shasta.  If you have 
the time, Mt McLoughlin is a sweet mountain to climb. It has just enough 
challenge and risk to make it a great adventure and lifelong memory. I used 
my third climb as a trial run for my upcominb Mt Rainier climb on the next 
full moon. Here's some photos of the trip, and a view of Devils Pk and 
Crater Lake snowfields.
