Balance has hiked 1,000 miles on the PCT since leaving the Mexican border on April 25th.
A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. That is a famous quote but I forget who wrote it. We can't believe we have made it to 1,000 miles. Also we can't believe we have almost 1,700 more miles to go. We are trying not to think about that.

That faint line in the photo is our trail during this moonscape of a climb to Leavitt Lake Pass.
Rock lichen. It looks like someone spray painted these rocks.
We don't know the name of this area, but what we do know is that it is our last view of the Sierras. We have completed the Sierra portion of the PCT. What an amazing place the Sierras are. They will be missed, but the passes will not.

More Sierra flora.
It truly is amazing what one can do, just putting one foot in front of the other. Metaphorically as well as physically. Congratulations on the 1K mark.
