Pacific Crest Trail | Episode Six

This video covers almost all of Oregon - from Cascade Locks to Ashland. Trying to take advantage of the flat terrain in Oregon, we started hiking more miles per day than we had been previously. Although we were mentally ready to hike the miles, our bodies had different ideas and we soon found ourselves nursing injuries. Cody’s shin/ankle started giving him problems and we ended up having to take a couple days off to heal in Sisters, OR. After Sisters we had a few days being supported by Freshground’s Leapfrog Cafe which was amazing. It was a huge physical and mental boost to be fed such amazing food on trail and be in such good company at the end of the day. Shortly after our stay in Sisters the injuries began to heal and we got back to hiking around 30 miles per day. The terrain in Oregon was much flatter and allowed us to hike more miles with not as much effort as the large changes in elevation we hiked through in Washington. Overall we had a great time hiking through Oregon and saw some amazing views, people and places.
