Hike Distance: 10.3 miles

Elevation Gain: 421 feet

An absolutely gorgeous day near the Columbia River Gorge.  As you might expect there were plenty of people walking and riding bikes on the trail.  I also saw plenty of bird watchers at the Steigerwald Wildlife Refuge.

My main goal today, besides relaxing and having fun, is to guarantee I can exceed the 10,000 mile milestone during this weekend.  Again, a very successful day, and I hiked pretty much the entire trail system here.  Sunday we have planned a great hike to break the 10,000 mile mark, and I’m very excited after having spent about 10 years trying to reach this milestone!
