Susie Lake to Lake of the Woods

PCT day 3: Tuesday 9/8/2015: PCT mile 1102 to 1097, day distance 8 miles.

This mornings sunrise was so beautiful and we were in a perfect spot.

Shortly after we left we met PCT section hikers "hike alone" and kid within 20 mins of each other, both hiking the section between HW50 and I80. Hike alone had hiked most other sections already. We also met "camp post", who had hiked about 700 miles of the PCT earlier this year before he had to end due to an injury. 
Lake of the Woods was so beautiful. We went swimming, hiked all around the lake and found a very nice camp spot. No, it was a perfect spot. 
I'm getting more and more hungry. The food will just be enough until we get to the car tomorrow. 
After dinner we decided to Cowboy camp. The stars and Milky Way were amazing. It was not too cold and super dry - no condensation, no bugs - it was wonderful.
