Pacific Crest Trail (PCT) - Bridge of the Gods to Road 23 — Thursday, Jun. 27, 2024

Hiked NOBO from Cascade Locks to Panther Creek Campground June 27-30, 2024. Lots of poison oak and a downed utility line at the very beginning of the trail. Contacted City of Cascade Locks to notify them of the utility line so they could tell the responsible party. They said they would. Saw a bear bag tied around the base of a tree and torn into by a bear. Lots of water. More than online & book/map sources say. Probably because the hike was early season. Very little mosquitoes. Saw about 12 other section hikers and 1 thru hiker. Thru hiker did Oregon & parts of CA last year, already tackled the other part of CA this year and was now hitting WA.
