Day 63, mile 840+

Monday, June 24, 2013
Leg 10: Red's Meadow (near Mammoth) to Sonora Pass, California
Overnighting: ??? (somewhere after Muir Pass)
Friend on trail: Beezy

Second cyber-spotting.  First appearance in the written word of another Thru Hiker.

Muir Pass -- Red, Other Andrew, Muk Muk, UB
(assuming Beezy took this photo with Muk Muk's camera)

If you're tracking their progress using Jonno's online map or Halfmile's PDF maps, here's how to find them:
  • JONNO: find the pinpoint for Independence, follow the trail (red line) north until you see the first purple tangent running east.  Zoom in as far as you can to that red-purple fork, then follow the red trail, which heads north, west, and then hook south past Helen Lake.  Our boys hiked right pass this lake as they went up and over Muir Pass (mile 838.6) is just southwest of Helen Lake.
  • HALFMILE: open California Section H, page 12, right-hand side
Links to both maps are available within my April post, Map of Pacific Crest Trail.  Happy tracking!
