PCT Hiker

I hiked a short section of the PCT to Dry Creek Falls. I had the option of hiking to PCT Falls, but I don’t seem to remember being impressed by pictures of that one. I suppose it would have been a nice hike though just for the scenery.

I had a stroll up a bit of Gorton Creek. I wasn’t exactly thrilled at the sign board indicating that this is bear country. There was quite a bit of information, so I suppose that they weren’t kidding.

My next stop was at Starvation Creek. This time I didn’t hike to Cabin Creek, Warren Creek, and Lancaster Creek. I was just there to photograph Starvation Creek below the falls.

My final stop of the day was at Yeon State Park to see Elowah Falls. That was a bit of a miscalculation on my part. Today was supposed to be a rest day, since I have a more difficult hike tomorrow. I had been thinking that I had only four more days left in Portland. Once I started hiking to Elowah I realized that I actually have five. I had already started by that point so it seemed pointless to turn around.

Soooo beautiful! A bear, had one appeared, would have added a nice touch to the image! V
