Over the mountain!






We did it. We successfully made it over Rainy Pass and Washington Pass today and are feeling quite proud of ourselves. They are the two highest peaks on the entire route and we've heard they may be tougher than crossing the Rockies. At a steady 4mph we made it to the beautiful, snowy top where we threw on our down jackets and mittens for the quick descent into town. We have been riding with a group of guys who are on their way to Maine. We are currently camped somewhere between Mazama and Winthrop. That's the update for now! Tomorrow we'll try to have the camera closer to the top so we can capture the view.
