Its been far too long since I posted last, for which I apologize. I'm not going to try and fully catch you up on everytbing thats happened since my last post, but I will give you a short cut.
Biggest news. We have lost two of our hikers to the real world. Cameron and AJ have moved on to bigger, better and more fulfilling things than hiking. Leaving Andrew and I to plug along with a hole in our hearts with their absence. Cameron having never backpacked before and it not particularly being his favorite thing made it over 1,000 miles before he decided to call it, pretty amazing for a 19 year old. AJ's girlfriend came to visit him in Burney Falls, after her departure AJ continued on to Mt Shast only to realize how much he missed his girl, next thing you now he rented a car to drive back to Utah. They will both be missed, their effort on this demanding trail is more then commendable.
At this point Andrew and I are pushing on ahead trying to beat the weather that is inevitably coming in Washington.
