Sunday: (06/26) Started early and enjoyed seeing the geese I’d been hearing all evening and night out on the lake with come pelicans.
Really pretty small lakes. On the right is hte last good water for the next 25 miles.
The trail wandered across some grassy valley bottom then up onto the Hat Creek Rim.
Continued on to MM1391, Cache 22, an unmaintained cache. I had been looking forward to arriving because it was about the halfway point and there were chairs to sit on in the shade. Upon arrival there was no shade but I tried to enjoy the chairs for a sit. The one I chose collapsed and cut my finger seriously. There was a campsite nearby and I’d done 14 miles so decided to camp here. I setup the tent then did some first aide on my finger. It’s the left hand middle finger but it is the hand I use to lift my bag onto my back. I’ll see tomorrow if it means stopping the hike for a while. Otherwise today was a nice walk, hot and uphill so I stopped to rest several times.
I met the following hikers today: Homestretch (a girl through hiker), Strata and Oats (through hikers), and Peabody ( a through hiker)
