Mile 1982 - 2001 Lava field to Big Lake Youth Camp


Tracy's notes: thunder, lightning and rain during the night. Cozy in tents in a small island forest amidst a lava field protected from the winds from the walls of lava rock around us.  
- beautiful morning scenery leaving glacier peaks awash in clouds and pink mist from the sun rise 
- walking thru lava fields most of the day
- We lucked out and were very excited to get a free cabin to stay in at the Big Lake Youth Camp near Sisters, OR. Apparently we timed it right and all the youths are gone for the week so the staff kinda gave us free run of the place including dinner, showers and laundry. Dinner at 5:30pm, by luck we got in at 5:29pm. 

Crossed over 2000 mile mark!

Congratulations!! You know when you reach the end of the PCT you may as well just keep going now and walk back to Scotland.

What are your trail names by the way, did you stick with the ones you had at the start?
