As I climbed out of Walker Pass, the trail got steep and rugged, and I could tell we were getting into the foothills of the Sierras. It's exciting to be getting close to the mountains, and I look forward to the promise of more water and perhaps some grass for the horses along the trail. But I've also heard lots of contradictory stories about whether or not there's too much snow on parts of the PCT for me to get through, and I'm getting anxious about what lies ahead.
