Day 4

Last night we camped at Cibbits campground. It was nice and relaxing. A German duo, brother and sister joined us for dinner. The brother is only 19 and after a week, he’ll be doing the PCT on his own. Quite impressive.

We woke up early in the morning and started to climb. I Skyped my Dad on our way up, as he had surgery next day.

Then we ran into a bee cloud that lasted close to 10 scary minutes, but luckily we didn’t get stung. The temperature was rising, however we felt strong all day.

By lunch time we got to Mount Laguna where we got our first supply box from the local post office. It was like Christmas morning. Snacks, dehydrated dinners, beef jerky…We were happy!

At the local store we bought our lunch and under a nice pine tree we took a 2 hour break with fellow PCT hikers.

After lunch we hiked to our camp site at Penny Pines. That day we did 16 miles, it was a good day.
