Hey, i am at Mile 209 at Whitewater, staying in a Hotel in Palm Springs. I am planning to night hike around 11 Miles at 3 or 4am tomorrow due to the extreme heat. I don't have a trail family and I am doing the PCT alone (international). This would be my first night hike and now I am getting nervous, as I heard that there are Mountain Lions and Bears around. Would it be safe to go alone?

Dont want to do it later, as I struggled a lot with the heat coming down San Jacinto, don't really want to do this again. Any Input appreciated!
