Day 23 – Back to the wilderness

Originally published on Mason Hikes the PCT 2017.

Mileage: 29

Having spent the last three days off-trail, it felt nice to get back to the outdoors. I ran into a ton of people today, most of whom I had never seen before, but I ran into a few old friends who had caught up too!

The hiking wasn’t too eventful today and I spent the majority of my time deep in thought, though I need to snap out of it temporarily every once in a while because there was so much poodle dog bush. I really don’t want to know what this plant can do to me, though it is pretty.

I spent the day descending towards Acton and Agua Dulce, so hopefully I’ll be there soon!
