We recently spent a week in Northern California's Hat Creek Valley camping, fishing, hiking, and enjoying the changing season. What an amazing place and one of our favorites for getting away and just relaxing.

Eric's PCT Send Off
Our friend Eric started his North section PCT hike Sunday at the Highway 44 trailhead in Hat Creek Valley north of Lassen National Park. Several of use joined him as we climbed up to the Hat Creek Rim along the PCT. We took in the view, then wished Eric luck and he was on his way solo.
The weather was perfect and the group ended up hiking 6.97 miles total.
