DAY ONE-OH-ONE, August 18, 9.1 Miles
At mile 2155
The Eagle Creek trail was amazing, very glad I went that way (seems it's only not official PCT because horses couldn't do it). Waterfalls all over the place, including a pointless, yet still well awesome tunnel-behind-the-waterfall deal. The walk into Cascade Locks town is along a magical old section of the old Columbia River Highway, sandwiched between a lush forest and the Interstate. Then you cross under the Interstate and are presented with more Blackberries than you could ever hope to eat. Deliciousness! Cascade is nice enough. The Charburgers portion sizes are impressive and my hotel room, disappointing from the outside, is quite nice. The lack of TV channels however... Cannot stop eating.
