Total Miles: 217
The snow has continued all through Oregon.
Any trail at or above 5,000 feet is covered in snow. We’ve taken some low alternate routes to avoid some tough areas and took a half day (nero) to avoid snow and rain high up near the 3 Sisters Mountain area.
It’s been weird relying on someone else for navigation but it’s been a nice change hiking with another human through all this tough stuff. My pace hasn’t slowed too much because of the snow, still pulling mid 30s into the 40s. But the temperatures haven’t gotten warm yet and the weather system of rain, wind, and snow has seemed to linger. Once summer does arrive the snow will start to melt which will help but the river crossings will be very sketchy.
Body feels good and the forecast looks promising. In a couple days Washington which will pit me over 2,000 miles on 65 days.✌👣👣
