Day 45 6/29 18.5
The morning was cold again so we packed up as quickly we could and hiked in all our layers until we found a nice sunny spot to stop and eat breakfast in the warmth. We continued on towards Forrester pass, the highest point on the pct at 13200 feet! After a long climb up on some of the craziest switchbacks we've been on so far we made it to the top!! After a bit of steep downhill with an amazing view we made it to a small lake where we took lunch with another hiker named Ithaca. After the pass the downhill went on for about 6.5 miles down to 9400 feet, the way down felt super long. We then had one last climb to a trail junction where we will take a side trail 8 miles off the PCT in order to get to a road where we will hitch to town for our next resupply.
