PCT 2018 Day 31, May 23, Wednesday.
Start mile 705.3, campsite near south fork of Kern River
End mile 730.8, campsite at Death Canyon Creek
Miles walked: 25.5
Starting at elevation 6.2k, the path climbs to 10.5k, before descending to 9k to camp. The trail today has good controlled slope, so climbing is not any harder than it needs to be, and the temperature is pleasant, sunny skies, low wind. Climbing to Beck Meadow, one can see snow-kissed mountains in the distance. 
Climbing higher, snow covered mountains grow nearer. 
In old-growth forest, some wide white sandy patches appear near the destination campsite. 
One full month on the PCT!
