Day 1

I am on my way to the start! The plan is to walk the entirety of Oregon and Washington in the next two months. This will be roughly 1000 miles. It is by far the biggest solo adventure I have ever attempted.
I finally finished all my resupply packages- they contain between 2 and 6 days of food. Highlights are the 250 pop tarts from Costco and over 200 candy bars! My goal is to eat up to 6000 calories a day- in my 8 week hike, I will eat over a third of a million calories!
The weather in Oregon is supposed to be extremely warm and dry for the first 10 days. I hope it melts some mountain snow before I get there.
My dad is going to drop me off within a few yards of where the trail crosses the Oregon-California border, which saves me about 3 days of hiking.
I will try and update with pictures when I am in towns with Internet access.
