Day 154: (21.2 miles) mile 2334.22 – 2355.48 We climbed out of Sheep Lake in the morning to the Fog Trail Junction. Good name for this location because we were back in the clouds. The air was cool and the … Continue reading →

Day 153: (21.22 miles) mile 2313 – 2334.22 Froze our buns off last night. Surprised to see it didn’t snow and that our water bottles were still liquid. The rain was on and off all night. This morning the rain … Continue reading →

Day 152:( 10 miles) mile 2303 – 2313 We arrived at the White’s Pass Kracker Barrel store (that’s not a Cracker Barrel) at 8am sharp. It’s a small country store that serves some hot fried food and coffee with the … Continue reading →

Day 151: (22.5 miles) mile 2280.53 – 2303 We started climbing up to Goat Rock early before sunrise, which required enduring the cold chill. Several SOBO the past few days have said, “Wait to you get to Goat Rock!”. We … Continue reading →

Day 150: (22.39 miles) mile 2257.91 – 2280.53 Today was a mostly easy trail hike.  We were in the green tunnel for most of the morning, then turned a corner and were presented with Mt. Adams, again…wow, but seemingly way … Continue reading →

Day 148 : (17.07 miles) mile 2220.45 – 2237.52 Up early and highly motivated.  We were hungry, thirsty for something other than flavored water, and would like a shower and non-stinky, sweat soaked clothes. We walked through huckleberry fields, running creeks … Continue reading →

Day 147: (24.75 miles) mile 2195.7 – 2220.45 Had an earlier than expected wake up call last night. We had camped about fifty feet from what we thought was a seldom used forest road. In the middle of the night … Continue reading →

Day 146: (20.17 miles) mile 2175.15 – 2195.87 Today was pretty much a regular hiking day.  We were warned about Washington.  You are either going up or going down, and as such there is very little even or rolling terrain. … Continue reading →

Day 145: (20.14 miles) mile 2155 – 2175.14 As with all time off, it has to come to an end.  Our Zero in Cascade Locks spent comfortably at the Best Western was over, sounded the obnoxious beep of the alarm … Continue reading →

Day 144: (Zero Miles) After a glorious nights sleep we toddle off to breakfast next door with meal tickets in hand.  We have an awesome view of the mighty Columbia River and the Bridge if the Gods that connects Oregon … Continue reading →
