Pacific Crest Trail Day 44: Two more passes, Selden and Silver, stand between me and Red's Meadow (access point for Mammoth Lakes), and today I'm aiming to make it over both (from what I remember, they aren't as challenging as what I've just done the past two days). . Selden Pass has the least snow on the approach of any pass thus far and at the top I run into Dash (@jondashkyle) who I haven’t seen since before Forester Pass. I feel like Selden Pass is also the point in the trail where the PCT jade starts to make an appearance. It's a beautiful view in both directions, but compared to the views of the passes south of here, it's certainly the least exciting. . North of Selden, I cross Bear Creek and find Dash with Psyched (whom I haven’t seen since Kennedy Meadows) at another (smaller) river crossings. We continue past the turn-off for Vermillion Valley Resort (where I stopped in 2013) and continue toward Silver Pass. On the way up we hit a waterfall that floods and crosses the trail and I'm the only one of us who decides that crossing this is a good idea this late in the day. . Leaving my friends behind, I continue up to Silver Pass just in time for sunset and some of the longest glissades of the entire trail. It's under 20 mi / 32 km to Red's Meadow tomorrow. Hopefully, there's not much snow between here and there. . Day: PCT 854.5 to PCT 887.5 via Seldon Pass and Silver Pass Day's distance: 33.52 mi / 53.95 km Day's elevation gain: 7,864 ft / 2,397 m #Sierra #PCT
