At mile: 1983
We are in Oregon! For now at least. After spending 3.5 months traipsing the length of California, our time in Oregon will be remarkably brief. We will probably only be in this state for another week. Which is a shame, because we really like it here.
The trail has been easy.
Our surroundings are beautiful.
There are trees!
But sometimes trees fall down.
And sometimes trees burn up.
We've made a few friends.
And passed a few milestones.
We have had clear skies.
And hazy days.
But mostly importantly, we keep trucking north. There are less than 700 miles left to hike, and even fewer until we reach David's home state of Washington. For the first time since we began hiking, it really feels like every step is moving us closer to home.
Your right the trees are huge! Beautiful place! I can see why you are enjoying your trek there. Is that an action shot of a tree falling or is it suspended by another? So cool! Your "friends" made me smile.
I agree.
That tree was stuck like that right on the trail!
What beautiful scenery. You both look very happy and fit!
Thanks Lise! We are feeling happy and fit. The fit part is a bit of a surprise considering our diet though...
I am glad you are almost home!!!!! And happy belated birthday Mara. Eli
Thanks Eli!
Hello David and Mara,
Are you close to the 3 Sisters area? I would like to see you. I have been in Costa Rica without phone service for three weeks and got home last night so have lost track of your progress. Great pictures! Happy trails to you!
