siskyou wilderness fire redirect (3 | 8)

this day was hell. redirected by a work crew who told me my route was closed due to a large fire (you can see the smoke piling up in this photo), i quickly renavigated onto a little used trail that ended up being more a game trail. 200 downed trees, endless miles of bushwhacking, 7000 ft of carrying and plenty of blood later, i took a 2 hr nap to recover from dehydration next to a mud puddle next to the trail. without that puddle... i don't take photos when the going gets rough, so here's the second half of the day.
