PCT: fire update
We are aware of the fire near ollalie lake. Pct website had an update with diversion yesterday pm and we are following that. That route turns off the pct near russel lake and reconnects at red something. We have it saved here on the iPad. Conserving juice so keeping this short. If you want to help us out, please feel free to look at pcta.org website for any trail closure info later that yesterday afternoon and send it to me on my cell via text message. No idea if we will get it but could be helpful if we do. Will update again when able!
