Day 84:

Date: June 24, 2015
Progress: 25.0 miles - tentsite (mi 1852.6) to tentsite near Six Horse Spring (mi 1877.6)

This morning I hid in my tent for a while because I woke up to seven thousand mosquitoes surrounding the walls of my bug net. By the time I finally got moving at 9:45 they weren't quite as bad because it had warmed up a little. 

I felt pretty good today, and covered the 25 miles quickly and without spending much time resting. The mosquitoes were bad on and off. 

When Backtrack and I got to our campsite, we both quickly set up our tents to create a haven from our impending mosquito doom before walking down to the water source on the 0.4 mile side trail. 

Mt. Thielsen, the "lightning rod" of the Cascades, according to Backtrack.
