2nd day: Starting off fighting snow, heading north on the PCT as the trail eventually gets to a ridge line walk. We headed up, appropriately, Big Ridge for the day's destination, then returned to Paradise Lake.

The high country shouldn't be accessible yet, especially just a few days after a storm, but it was already like June out there. We headed up to Paradise Lake on the Kelsey Trail and had the popular spot all to ourselves. Hiking around once there was more limited, but possible.
1st day: Up along Kelsey Creek to Paradise Lake along the Pacific Crest Trail among the Marble Mountains.
Excruciating details and mounds of photos: https://valhikes.blogspot.com/2026/04/paradise-paradise-lake.html

A little of the epic finish to a brutal backpacking loop through many different environments that was somehow only three days.
Just how I spent my #mountainMonday.

The Pacific Crest Trail was looking a lot easier to travel as we left than when we passed the day before.
#footpathFridayI finished up another set of backpacking posts, but am busy so might not get to advertising them before wandering off to more adventure.

The third and last day backpacking near Seiad on the Pacific Crest Trail had a bit more ridge view, some search for a different short way down, then a long route around passing a pair of waterfalls.

Back in California (barely) with a three day backpacking trip flirting with the edge of Red Buttes Wilderness. High ridge views and a little snow. First, the tough climb up West Fork Seiad Creek to camp among pools with springs in the bottoms.
