Finally, here is the best reason to be off the trail. This is a picture from Rainy Pass which is about 80 miles from the end of the trail. Believe it or not this picture was taken almost a week ago by some friends of ours who are still out there. They had a foot of snow fall in almost a day and another foot is still on the way. Believe it or not there are still about 20 more crazy hikers still out there. There is a saying on the PCT that the last Thru Hiker Wins. I will leave that one up for debate. We are both pretty happy with almost winning.
