Cascade Locks, OR to Campsite at Mile 2154.13, WA

Got to sleep in a bit this morning, but my body still isn't quite recovered from the miles we did yesterday. Hopefully a decent night's sleep will help.

Did some food sorting and shopping this morning then had lunch at the fish market in Cascade Locks before heading out over the Bridge of the Gods into Washington, the third and last state of the trail.

And of course, the trail starts to climb. The crossing of the Columbia river is the low spot of the PCT, so everything is up from there.

Only hiked about 10 miles today, so will have to make up a little tomorrow.

It rained a little as we departed Cascade Locks, but it held off for the rest of the day. It is a bit humid, but the forecast says no rain for a few days at least.
