Rainy hike from Bridge Creek Trailhead, followed PCT south to junction with McAlester Trail (at Fireweed Camp), headed up and over McAlester Pass and down the Rainbow Creek Trail as far as Bench Creek Camp. Back the same route the next morning.
Trail was in good condition with a few small stream crossings, recent rain created muddy patches and puddles, but overall the trails were clear and easy to navigate. Biggest obstacle are the horse droppings as this is a stock trail as well.
Fall colors starting to appear.
Green Trails Map #82 is recommended.
