Valerie Norton<p>After 5 days of wiggling about and hard trail, it only took the 6th day to get back.

Valerie Norton<p>Here's the first day (links to the rest are at the top of the post) of backpacking in the Trinity Alps on my own after doing the first week of trail work. A bit of burn, crazy burn, surreal twice burned, scattered burn, grand (5th) day, then back across burn. Even burn has its moments.<br /><a href="https://valhikes.blogspot.com/2023/07/boulder-loop-south-fork-lakes.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">valhikes.blogspot.com/2023/07/</span><span class="invisible">boulder-loop-south-fork-lakes.html</span></a></p><p><a href="https://en.osm.town/tags/hiking" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>hiking</span></a> <a href="https://en.osm.town/tags/backpacking" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>backpacking</span></a> <a href="https://en.osm.town/tags/TrinityAlpsWilderness" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>TrinityAlpsWilderness</span></a> <a href="https://en.osm.town/tags/KlamathNF" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>KlamathNF</span></a> <a href="https://en.osm.town/tags/ShastaTrinityNF" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>ShastaTrinityNF</span></a> <a href="https://en.osm.town/tags/KlamathNationalForest" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>KlamathNationalForest</span></a> <a href="https://en.osm.town/tags/ShastaTrinityNationalForest" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>ShastaTrinityNationalForest</span></a> <a href="https://en.osm.town/tags/California" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>California</span></a> <a href="https://en.osm.town/tags/hikeCalifornia" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>hikeCalifornia</span></a> <a href="https://en.osm.town/tags/PNW" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>PNW</span></a></p>
