Miles: 35
Adrian: Today we road walked 15 miles which equaled 35 trail miles.
Kirsten: Way to keep it short, Adrian. I had mixed feelings about this alternate route most of the morning. I didn't come to hike roads. On the other hand, by doing the alternate we set ourselves up nicely to get into Packwood for my
birthday.Once we were underway I decided to take full advantage of what the road walk had to offer. We had breakfast in Cascade Locks and once we reached Stevenson we stopped for some lattes. Four miles and many handfuls of blackberries later we reached Carson and I was hungry again. So we ate at the local diner and finally reached Stabler Store, where we shipped ourselves a box of food.
Don't Panic and Clearwater were at the store and we all hung out under the awning eating frozen burritos, Oreos and drinking beer. About 15 minutes after our arrival the rains came and we were all happy to be at the store. Once the rain we stopped we all made our way to the Panther Creek campground and built a nice campfire. Another classic day on the PCT.
