On May 22, 2014 By clearwiredIn Sartor Resartus

Starting to taper for Beacon Rock and feeling karate strong. Overall mileage is coming down, intensity is staying level.

Hooray for Ouray! ⁣ ⁣ I’ve found the best way to commit to a trip is to buy a plane ticket. ⁣ ⁣ Last year I connected with some off-duty guides from Aspen and Telluride on Mountain Project and we pulled down in the park for 2 days.⁣ ⁣ I’ll be climbing in Ouray Jan 16-19, meeting up with my East Coast crew.⁣ ⁣ “I’m shoppin’ at Neiman’s, ballin’ every season⁣ Feelin’ like I’m dreamin’, shinin’ every weekend”⁣ —Project Dreams, Roddy Ricch

95 North out of Winnemucca, NV should be called “Bunny Death Highway”. I stopped counting bunny roadkill. Saw a coyote waiting at the side of road for cars to pass so he could get some bunny breakfast. It’s a whole ecosystem.⁣ ⁣ North from Winnemucca into Oregon, then East around Steens Mountain (sketchy!) and into Burns. -2 degrees just before sun hit. Over to Bend, then home to Portland.⁣ ⁣ I’ve been through every cow town from Tempe, AZ to Terrebonne, OR. ⁣ ⁣ “Crossed the desert’s bare man, I’ve breathed the mountain air man. I’ve travelled I’ve had my share man, I’ve been everywhere.” J. Cash.

Beautiful drive through central Nevada today. I ❤️ snow in the desert. I’m catching up on all my @the_firn_line and @findingmastery podcasts.⁣ ⁣ Only one sketchy pass dropping in to Austin, NV through Humboldt-Toiyabe Nat’l Forest. ⁣ ⁣ We drove very very very slowly. In silence. And then when we were down... cranked Paul Revere back up...”Nowwww here’s a little story I got to tell about 3 bad brothers you know so well..

South Mountain is kind of like Forest Park. But cactus instead of trees, lots of rocks and good views. Trail running is decent here.⁣ ⁣ No idea how I’m going to drive back to Portland with the PNW vortex going on. The roads are going to be sketchy. I bought chains today and have AWD. And I have my Sven saw and forest axe in the car.⁣ ⁣ I had a heart to heart with the dogs and told them if we get into a Donner party situation, we’ll eat Blue first - he’s a total beefcake.
