Maps

So my maps have arrived, and I will get on the train to Mt. Vernon tomorrow and start my journey east. The climbs are going to be hard. Very hard. I am stoked to get back on the road. I appreciate Q-Dogg and the others who live in his house for their hospitality, and patience in dealing with me, but it is time to leave Seattle. This city is alright, as far a cities go, but I can't walk five blocks without seeing some hipster riding a fixie and that puts me in a foul mood.

The climbs on the way to Sandpoint, ID are going to suck. Steep, steep mountain roads, but it will make for good photos and be lots of fun. I will try to make Sandpoint by Sunday or Monday but we shall see. I am not sure how many miles a day I will be able to log, give the climbs involved on the road. The prospective route takes me through the Cascades and is about 420 from Mt. Vernon. I will update this when I can, for I will be entering the wilderness soon.
