I wanted to rest. Two miles in I encountered a blowdown tree and went right to get over it at a narrower spot. Afterward I veered left to get back to the trail. Slowly I climbed and after about 45 minutes I was nearing the top and took out my phone to look at the GPS. To my surprise I was off trail. Huh? How did that happen? So back down to the trail I went. Finally after 45 minutes I again climbed over the tree and found myself on the PCT. What happened is that the tree blew down on a trail sign post where the PCT went left and the Tahoe-Yosemite Trail went right. When I climbed over the tree I accidentally merged with the right one. Argh! So I lost 3 miles of hiking right at the beginning of the day. I was not a happy hiker for the rest of the day. My desire to complete mid-afternoon was shot.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/1fifoto.com\/hiking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/20140620-171211-61931847.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/1fifoto.com\/hiking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/20140620-171211-61931847.jpg\" alt=\"20140620-171211-61931847.jpg\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Blown over tree on the trail<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I woke early at 5 AM to get a jump on completing my miles by mid-afternoon today.
