Duffy Lake to Blue Lake

Unbeknownst to us, we set-up our campsite the 2nd night right smack-dab in the middle of a game trail. We had just finished dinner and were enjoying a nice cup of whiskey, when two fairly large bucks literally walked up to our bags. There were only deer, but seeing a pair of yellow eyes in the dark tends to bring out your fears of

Wisconsin Goat Rocks

Second time hiking Goat Lake Loop Hike (snowgrass flats). This time around we met up with a few Wisconsinites who moved to Seattle. It was fun speaking Wisconsin with Alyssa and Ryan. We talked about our dogs, some more about our dogs, and then a little about ourselves. The hike was beautiful as always! It was a clear Saturday afternoon

Skull Hollow Cow Camping

Had a great weekend in Central Oregon with Jenna, Nathan, Allison, Nils and his sister Anna. Camped at Skull Hollow with the grazing cows. Was the first time they had actually grazed through our campground made all sorts of noises to let us know they weren't happy we were invading their space.

"I can't do this!" | "This is crazy!" | "Don't look up" | "Take 10 Steps" | "Take 20 Steps" | "I gotta stop!" | "This fu*%ing sucks!" | "This is awesome!" | "How much longer?" | "OMG, there's more?!" | "Wow, we've gone a long way"

These were all the thoughts going through our heads this weekend as we climbed South Sister Mountain! As the third highest mountain in Oregon, South Sister stands at 10,358 feet in elevation.  We started our journey at 5:00 AM from Devil's Lake trail head. Sitting at about 5,400 feet, we were looking at a 12 mile hike round-trip.

Knees weak and stomach churning, I jumped into the Umpqua River!  The western portion of the Umpqua River hosts some fantastic locations for cliff jumping and rock climbing. That's exactly what I did with our friend Nils, while Jenna became the full-time camera woman. Pushing past the imaginary limitations we set for ourselves is an awesome feeling!
