Day 15

Got to Shelter Cove today! Last few days I took an alternative way because of the snow. The Oregon Skyline Trail is an older trail than the pct, and parallels it through Oregon. The OST stays at lower elevations so there are more lakes and streams to see while the pct stays close to the crest of the cascades through Oregon. I road-walked almost 20 miles to reach windigo pass, then the next day climbed Mt. Cowhorn via the pct. The views were amazing! Lots of snow so I decided to detour to the OST when it was possible.
I am getting used to life on the trail I think. I am getting quicker at setting up and taking down my tent, bandaging my feet, and doing laundry, showering and resupplying!
