In this June 21, 2017, self portrait photo provided by Anya Sellsted shows herself inside a tent while camping on the Pacific Crest Trail in Oregon. Sellsted had traversed the highest snow-covered passes and forded raging rivers during her hike from Mexico to Canada when she ran into trouble in the high Sierra Nevada mountains. Still, Sellsted made it farther than most in the Sierra, covering nearly 1,000 miles (1,600 kilometers) in California. She resumed her hike Monday, June 19, in Oregon, expecting clear trails at lower elevations. But even at 5,000 feet (1,500 meters), the trail was covered in snow, and she turned back.
