Ansel Adams' Wilderness


Thousand Island Lake and Banner Peak: At a junction soon after this point, I struggled with deciding whether or not to take the official PCT for 13 miles or to take the slightly longer and more scenic John Muir Trail before the trails converged together again. It was storming and raining hard and at the intersection a mother/daughter hiking duo convinced me to take the Pacific Crest Trail route, which I sorta regretted but it was probably good to take the faster route as the weather turned pretty intense the next day.
