Day 108

22 Miles

The morning hiking was quick, we knocked out 14 before lunch. Oregon is known to be a quick state and so far it seems to be true. Similar to NorCal, we don’t have huge climbs and can move pretty easily. The water carries are a bit longer than we’ve been dealing with though. Today we had a 13-mile carry, which wasn’t too bad. We leapfrogged with Nightranger a few times in the morning, but didn’t see him after lunch. We met Good Vibes who was also heading to the campground that we were heading to for the night. There was promise of a nice bathroom and running water, so a lot of hikers were making the slight detour. The picnic table we found away from the bathrooms was much less windy than the spots near them so we camped a bit away from the others. Before setting up the tent we cooked our dinner at the picnic table. That was nice not having to eat on the ground. Little luxuries.
