Pacific Crest Trail - Section J - Day 1 (The Beginning of a Journey)

Day 1 of 5 leaving Snoqualmie Pass for Stevens Pass on the PCT. Going into the Alpine Lakes Wilderness we cross Kendall Katwalk, a quick stop at Ridge Lake, with views of Alaska Lake, Joe Lake, Edds Lake, and Mount Rainier. In the heat of the day we cross some scree fields under Chikamin Peak and Four Brothers, and hit every snow reward we find to cool down. Once over the ridge we see Parks Lakes and decide that will be home for Day 1.
