Spent a pleasant night camping out along the Index-Galena Rd, which is one of my favorite spots. This actually, I think, the first time I’ve ever gone camping by myself, and the first time I’ve spent a night in a tent in years in the Seattle area. Everything is so close, we tend to make [...]

It was almost a year ago that I went to Walden Pond , the only time I have been there. Like many people I had read Thoreau’s 1854 classic “Walden”. If you are not familiar, it chronicles Thoreau’s life living in a small cabin that he built himself near the shore of Walden Pond in [...]

I updated the waypoints file with the latest. Added is an expanded collection of waypoints around the PNW area, as well as some southern desert spots. Also included for the first time is a very accurate track of the PCT.
