When I am looking for «Lassen», the only thing returned is not in Lassen National Park.
I thought it was 20 meters closer to the NP than me.

I’ve been wondering if it’s the lassen peak I’ve seen in the distance. He considers it as 320 °, so he gave me information. Right now I thought: «How can I find out if that is a mountain lassen or not?» The Farout application was useless for this, only informing GPS coordinates … well, it is not useless, but only reports positions in the GPS. I could turn GPS to UTM, but that is not easy to do here on the road. Instead, I discovered that my Garmin application on the phone will report UTM coordinates for the center of any map you are showing. So I moved the map to somewhere from Lassen Park and obtained the UTM coordinates for that. I just look at my watch where one of the data screens reports my current UTM location. That facilitated the determination that Lassen is 60 km north of me and 40 km west of me. The application of the calculator quickly told me that Arcan (2/3) or 40 more than 60 is 40 °. So that point must be in a bearing of approximately 320 ° from where I am currently located, which perfectly coincides with what I measured before. Lassen is in sight.

While the crow flies, that means that it is a little more than 70 km (45 m) from here. The path is 112 m to the park limit. Snake factor: 2.5-3.

I like to solve things like this. I guess that’s why I’m an engineer.

Mt. Lassen in the distance

I am now walking right on the edge of the forest fire scar that burned through the Feather River area. It is really surprising to see the difference. To my right there is nothing except the cut trees that are burned with scars. To my left, everything is standing, or so it looks. There are no burns of burns that are obvious. Therefore, it is surprising to know how abruptly a fire can be stopped (in the direction of space; that a line of fire can make such a difference).

Near the Feather River bridge there is a wonderful place to hang out. There are big camps. The big question is how far it would be to get here. Story 5-6 possible store spaces (a couple of children). It looks more like rivid of flat space of them.

My legs felt they could move on today. When I walked, they never discouraged.

I only saw 5 humans today. Three were working on the distance path: chainsaws. Another was a hiker who saw near the end of the day. The third was Daniel, who walked while I was organizing my camp. Daniel wanted to reach the water and the top of the climb.

Shortly after passing me, the other guy stopped at a crossroads to filter water. But he sat on the rocks that were the most obvious outlet of the rock jump. So I had to discover another way out. Unconscious of.

I am back in the elevation of poisonous oak. Quite along the path from the feather river to the camp

At one point this morning, my watch says I was walking 3.5 mph with a heart rate of 61. Yes, the path was soft and slightly downhill, but that is still really good.

Today I put too much water in my hummus dehydrated. So I really ended with hummus tea. I still knew well and was very easy to consume.

I am terms of distance, today was my longest day on the road so far.
