Today will be a hike up through the Diamond Peak area and then down to Shelter Cove, where I pick up my resupply, get a shower, do laundry and have a beer and real food.
I woke up to fog on the lake:
The Diamond Peak area is the second most beautiful area so far (second only to Crater Lake).
I spotted a piliated woodpecker, the largest woodpecker in this area, but he bolted before I could snap a photo.
Not pretty flowers
I arrived at Shelter Cove by noon and had a great shower, washed clothes, recharged my electronics and had good food and beer.
Life is good!
Thanks for reading!
