[pct-l] cougar sightings north of santiam pass

[MAXINE WEYANT]

Just came off a section hike from Hwy 138 NOBO in OR.  Was supposed to go to Olallie Lake but stopped at McKenzie Pass because of new fire there and the cont'd fire North of Santiam Pass.  Lloyd Gust, trail angel superhero, told me that a lot of hikers have seen a cougar on the trail north of Santiam, presumably displaced by the fire.  He made it sound like nearly every hiker had seen it for several days now.  Any input from hikers? 
 
Damn that Sisters Wildeness section is beautiful!!
