Didn't really have to climb much.
This is what I am most worried about with the weight on my bike.
Locus maps took me to a road that was closed, so I had to back track. Lost about 12 miles ( that's about an hour of biking). No biggie in the grand scheme of this trip. It's amazing how that didn't upset me. What's 12 miles when I am looking at another 2800 ahead of me.
I found a spot to camp outside of Carlton,OR. Kind of scary cuz I'm just off the side of the road.
Overall a really good start, but I am exhausted and can't wait to close my eyes.Read more
