I spent a little more time around the north end of the Russian Wilderness, making a little loop visiting lakes and taking in a stretch of the Pacific Crest Trail.

Day 1 was a short one, just a few miles along to a lakeside camp.

Day 2 #backpacking the #RussianWilderness started as a short plan, but couldn't stay that way. I added on a cross country hike to a little peak to see a hidden lake before starting. I added on a cross country hike to the biggest peak in the Wilderness after the hike.

The #RussianWilderness. It's not very big, but packs a punch. I hadn't been and found my way from the south via the #PacificCrestTrail. For my 1st day of 3 #backpacking, one of the jewels of the area: Russian Lake.

Going all #SitClub at the top of Etna Mountain (not to be confused with Mount Etna) with the #RussianWilderness and #MarbleMountainWilderness and a bit of #TrinityAlpsWilderness and #SiskiyouWilderness all in view. The #PCT is busy in both directions right now, but it gets quiet quickly with the littlest turn off. Oh, yeah, #MountShastaWilderness too. #mountains #California
