Cascade Locks to Mile 2164 - 19.6 miles
The last stage begins!! Tiptoe & I were back on trail mid morning to take the final steps out of Oregon. This meant crossing the Bridge of the Gods - with no pedestrian lane!!!
The views of the Columbia River below us were spectacular
The bridge only has a metal grating surface meaning a clear view to the river below your feet....gulp!!
The official state line is half way across although there was a welcome sign at the end of the Bridge
Trail wise it's been a day of climbing which was to be expected after the fall in elevation yesterday to 219 feet - the lowest point on the PCT. Initially we climbed up & around the back of Table Mountain.
We then began the eastwards push towards Mt Adams.
In the walk up we spotted a few banana slugs. These things would make a mess of your cabbages
It's another 26.5 miles tomorrow as we edge towards Trout Lake in 3 days time......Weta
