Hiking in fire smoke.
Left the comforts of Callahan's Lodge today and am back to hiking.
As soon as I climbed up in elevation a bit, the air became quite smoky and visibility to the surrounding hills became pretty poor.
Fortunately the breeze picked up later in the day and cleared out the smoke a little.
2021 Update:
Hiking in fire smoke.
Left the comforts of Callahan's Lodge today and we are back to hiking.
As soon as we climbed up in elevation a bit, the air became quite smoky and visibility to the surrounding hills became pretty poor. There are some pretty big fires in the area. Well, not really in the area, miles away, but the wind it bringing the smoke to us.
Fortunately the breeze picked up later in the day and cleared out the smoke a little.
