My friend Gabe climbed this pass a week before I got here with P2S. He buried me a time capsule at the top. It was an epic way to climb a mountain. Love you, Gabe!
At an ice cream shop in Winthrop...P2S was just here a week ago!
Climbing Washington Pass.
The overlook at Washington Pass
Lake Diablo. The reason I wanted to do NUS!
Camp in Rockport was sweet!
Washington has many mountains...In the past 5 days we've climbed 6 mountain passes. Flowery trail, Sherman Pass, Wauconda Pass, Loup Loup Pass, Washington Pass, & Rainy Pass. Cycling at 4-6 mph has caused me to laugh uncontrollably, lose my mind, yell at the mountains, etc. Its been insanity! Some of things that have been coming out of our mouths have been ridiculous.
For example, during one of our climbs I was talking about losing my mind during a ride on CWM and how a friend Becca had called me a giddy bitch. Well, I sweat A LOT and I lose a ton of salt...all of my cycling caps have impressive salt stains, so everyone here calls me a salty dog. Kelsey shouts out in delirium, "Fact: Giddy bitches are always salty dogs..."
Another funny moment...Kelsey and I are riding together up to Loup Loup pass. I am in front. Angela K rides up behind Kelsey and asks if she's hungry. Kelsey in confusion repeats the question and AK asks her if she wants and Angela sandwich...
"Do I have a flat?" This is something I have been asking people I ride with every 3 miles. Riding on a flat tire slows you down...It also feels the same when you are climbing mountains at a much slower pace...lets say 4.5 mph. So in reality I never have flats, I just suck at climbing and now its funny every time I ask the question.
