potentially on to Lost Pass. I had a permit for an area above treeline before Cameron Pass, but I wanted to push as far as I could today since the last forecast I looked at had worse weather the next two days with precipitation and a snow level near the elevation I would be camping at.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p><p>It was another 2300 feet up to Cameron Pass, and I was starting to feel the elevation.\u00a0 I was just running out of steam.\u00a0 As I climbed, I took short pauses with increasing frequency.\u00a0 I did briefly consider stopping at my planned campsite, but there was plenty of daylight left, and though it was clouding up, the weather was still reasonable.\u00a0 I decided to slowly push on.<\/p><p>As I escaped the trees once again, it got windier, with gusts coming over the pass.\u00a0 Then it started snowing, with the wind pelting me with the small pellets.\u00a0 I donned my hard shell jacket and pants that I had brought for this reason and continued on.\u00a0 I considered turning back since there were campsites in the trees just below, but I was still determined to push on to ensure my trip was workable.<\/p><p>The wind was strong and was pushing me around.\u00a0 At times I had to lean into it and just stay still to prevent getting blown off the narrow, steep trail.\u00a0 I continued to question my decision, but the pass got so close that I decided to press on.\u00a0 I was slightly chilled from the blowing snow and cold, but had more layers in my pack if needed.\u00a0 I prefer to hike chilled.<\/p><p>I eventually summitted the pass, but just continued forward to get down from the exposure.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"penci-section penci-disSticky

since it is less wet, but at least I was already dressed out in my rain gear.\u00a0 And I was also not climbing anymore.<\/p><p>I began a traverse towards Lost Pass, not sure how far I would make it.\u00a0 I was already past my short goal for the day, and Lost Pass or beyond was my stretch goal.\u00a0 I was still tired from all of the climbing, so I was not moving the fastest.\u00a0 As I approached Lost Pass, I crossed flowing water and then a campsite well protected in the trees.\u00a0 It did not take me long to decide to call it a night there since there was supposed to be continued rain or snow through the night.\u00a0 Darkness was also approaching.<\/p><p>I quickly set up my tent, got water, and dove into its protection from the rain to collect myself and rest.\u00a0 When I looked at my GPS, I had gone 19.3 miles and done 6,900 feet of elevation gain.\u00a0 No wonder I was so worn out!\u00a0<\/p><p>After resting, I quickly finished the small climb to Lost Pass early the next morning for sunrise over the mountains.\u00a0 I definitely picked the more sheltered campsite last night, so I made the right decision to stop short of my goal.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"penci-section penci-disSticky penci-structure-10
