day 3 = 72 miles of mostly climbing over mountain passes with a nice downhill in the middle and then a killer ascent out of the deschutes canyon at around 6pm. around 5000 feet on the up and up.
was definitely the most scenic day so far. we went from a lush rainforest, up and over the cascades (with a pit stop to catch the first half of the us vs uk game) to a beautiful meadow, down into a scenic river valley, then back up again to the top of mesa where we are laying our heads to rest. and it was our first day of sun!
the next few days we'll be in the high desert, going up and down and through the lava fields, should be interesting. : )
