[3/3] The final day of our 3 day loop offered up a minor challenge to our return followed by a major challenge. Once surmounted, we were back to amazing high mountain walking on the side of Ray's Peak and further ridge walking back to the Hull Cabin site where we started.

[2/3] Day 2 of the 3 day loop was a long way down to cross the North Fork Trinity River, which one really shouldn't rely on doing in this season, especially with a heat wave on, but was easy this particular season. The first cabin of the day was before the crossing, the second along Grizzly Creek, and the third, well, what can you expect?

[1/3] Once more into the Trinity Alps Wilderness, this time to wander among many cabins. The 1st day of the 3 day loop started with flowers on the way to long sections of ridge walking. It featured many birds and burned areas to complete the day where a fire lookout once stood at the top of Cabin Peak. Except the day wasn't quite done because we did still need to get back to camp.

In the West Salmon Mountains of Trinity Alps Wilderness, day 2 followed better trail, as we headed up to Horse Ridge Trail along Horse Trail Ridge, tagging Trinity Summit (Guard Station) and North Trinity Mountain along the way. It hardly ever lost us!

It's been 2 weeks since I got these posts done, so I should probably mention that there's a small but tough backpacking trip stopping by Alpine Lake most the time that's on the blog.

Day1: Short and easy up Stuart Fork to the ford.
