Oregon Trail

Saturday, June 25
Just beyond Baker City

18 miles, if we're lucky!

Sweet town, Baker City with majestic snow capped mountains as a backdrop.

Oregon Trail Visitors Center. Took a taxi out there because it was 6 miles out of town up on a hill. We may be crazy, but we're not stupid;)

Resupplied at a co-op with organic food. Yippee! Cherries from a fruit stand. Yummy! And ICE CREAM!!!!!

Managed to enjoy almost a whole day in town and then pedaled about 8 miles out to a field full of gopher holes to camp. I was worried they'd munch all our food so I stashed it up on a fence. It worked.

Trying to decide our route across this state is proving to be a bit of a challenge. One route is closed due to snow so the bike shop guy suggested we dip south. So we're heading to Sumpter tomorrow and figure things out from there


Pedal on, Pedal on

  1. snow in June...I find that fascinating. I experienced that in Yosemite in 2005 but it doesn't get old!
