CDT mile1228.6, Miles hiked 29.7 Let’s just say trail magic happens in the most peculiar ways on the CDT. When we woke up an hour late from our long push into camp the night before we had all intentions of hiking 23 or so miles and then hiking in the 6-8 miles...Day 81, Parkview Mountain

Enjoying a rare snow day in PDX! Got out for a little ski touring around town before everyone was awake. #urbanski #pdx #nopo #winterwonderland #montbell #point6
