PCT 22' Strava journal - Day 53

Pinchot pass - Mathers pass (Mile 808 - 829)

A first draft:

Today's pass of the day is Mathers pass (12,063 feet / 3680 m). It's one of the 'lower' passes but the way up is long and steep. We drop down into a spectacular valley with meadows and big rock formations. For diner I try to cold soak rice noodles from a backpacker meal which turned out to be a disaster. I decide I will probably have to stick to ramen for the rest of the trail :p.
