[pct-l] Alpine Lakes Wilderness, air situation?

[Peer Böhm]

Hello all,

I have opportunity and had planned to do a short section hike on the
PCT in the Alpine Lake Wilderness from Snoqualmie Pass to Stevens Pass
in mid-September, and now I wonder, whether this will be possible or
advisable.

Does anyone know what the air is like there? On ESRI/ARCGis I see what
looks like two really big fires somewhat to the east - Crescent
Mountain and Cougar Creek. What is the main wind direction, I wonder?
Are these far enough away?

Will I be able to see anything, or even breathe properly?

Thanks for information and advice!

Greetings,
Peer
