I haven’t hiked for more than a week because I had a couple of ugly blisters. I got out today but only went up to the Palouse-to-Cascade trail. As I got to the trail I looked up and saw a couple of rails someone has put up on the Zig Zag Trail – gives you an idea of how steep Zig Zag is:

I went east on PTC to Garcia and on the way back explored a couple of side trails, as is evident from the track (below).
As ever, there are plenty of interesting things to see out there:

I am hoping to do McClellan Butte on Tuesday and then on Thursday, I will be going east, staying overnight in my tent at Lake Easton State Park.
