The trail got a bit steep – The drop down into Piney Creek was ‘interesting’, especially with all the loose leaves over everything. I took it slow and steady and didn’t have any mishaps. 3 pictures

Three days, two-nights, January solo backpacking trip to Piney Creek Wilderness.
Happy Gary in the woods – Here I am, about a mile in and I’d warmed up enough to want to take my jacket off and drink most of my water. I’ll be able to fill my water bottle up when I get to Piney Creek. 4 pictures

Trail Not Maintained – Well, I guess that’s better than ‘Not A Trail’. I’ve never hiked this trail, and it is not marked on any of the maps I have, including the 1930 USGS map. I can make a rough guess on where it comes out, we shall see.

Not A Trail – This trip I’m planning on taking a trail I’ve never hiked before, I’ve already hiked this ‘Not a Trail.’

Another empty trailhead parking lot…Means another backpacking trip – Pines View Trailhead, Piney Creek Wilderness. I’m about to start on a three day – two-night relaxing stay by the lakeside.
