Top of the big climb. Smoke greatly improved when I climbed out of this valley and into the next.
Middle of the afternoon could see smoke from a small fire. A section hike said they saw the smoke jumpers parachute in to fight it. I believe the trail is on the ridge above the fire. The trail does a huge loop staying on top of the ridges while it works it’s way West.
