+6,400, -3,200 feet today nearly killed me today. We knew pushing the miles we’d been hitting in Oregon was going to be WAY tougher in Washington and that would be correct. 29 miles today HURT(!!!) mostly my ankle, which has been acting up for a couple of days now particularly on the climbs.

What we do like about Washington is how green it is ✅, that there are few insects🦟, and there is lots of water💧! What I don’t like as much at least right now is how much climbing there has been. Overall though, happy to be here, looking forward to Trout Lake tomorrow and some warm food again!
