We shouldn't but do because we got to get to work and make a living so we can pay to drink and eat to support our families. We don't got to hike in this smoggy crap, same thing as smoking cigs. Climbing peaks at air quality index 148 won't feed your kids.

The wildfire season has started and smoke started to pour across the state of Washington but I wasn't going to cancel this trip.
Wildfire season is "starting" that trip had an AQI of 57-70. Not ideal but an AQI similair to hiking in seattle. Right now its 148+ which is worse than beijing. Big No no. With the time you spent in my post history youd think youd have researched some AQI.
time = 5 seconds. i was exhausted afterwards.
anyway, leave r3h alone. last i checked, this isn't communist china. land of the free and all. hike if you want. go ski diving if you want. drive in cars. do it all.
Eric: Way to go to a super remote unvisited place (as Iron pointed out, I think only the Rhino and a few others have ventured up there). Smoke and all too...
