For those who don't know, I spent pretty much all of November in Vegas living in my van and climbing in Red Rocks basically every day. I have a massive heap of photos to go through, but I'm gonna start sharing some as I work through'm all.
I failed to get this guy's name, but I did get this shot of him on The Gambler (5.11-) cutting a foot as he moved into the crux sequence.

Sun rays blasted through the tall Sitka spruce & shore pine in Florence Oregon as we loaded our rafts to kick off day five of the Oregon Coast Trail. We were joined by heaps of seals as we paddled the Siuslaw River toward the south jetty & Oregon Dunes. The beauty of this crossing shot morale through the roof. The Oregon Dunes OHV area is capped by the Siuslaw on the north and the Umpqua on the south, forming an almost whale tail-esque geography, which meant we didn’t see town or road for two river crossings.

For the Umpqua, we got lucky with a hiker/ biker ferry. We restocked food in Winchester Bay & continued south, into the fog, on a long stretch of isolated beach that would spit us out at the mouth of the Coos River & the massive Coo’s Bay. We paddled once again before rolling into Sunset Bay State Park at dusk & made camp in the beautiful yurts, that are housed at the campground there.

The morning featured a carb load at a local cafe & resupply since racoons got into some of our food overnight. Then, we pinned it south to Bandon! With a gusty paddle across the Coquille River, we landed in the sunny, busy town of downtown Bandon, grabbed great coffee & lunch and road south with the wind at our backs through the Lord of the Rings like sea stacks on the Bandon Beach. It was another beautiful moment on par with the sun rays from the morning prior, though a whole lot more moody with the fog rolling back in. 20 miles south through dropping temps and worsening fog, we reached Floras Lake and decided to call it a day. The soft sand was relentless on this stretch & we were starting to feel the wear and tear on our bikes and bodies. With two days to go, we were feeling good about our mileage and looked forward to the morning ride through Cape Blanco instead of doing it in the fog & dark.

Rode from 12-5am with nothing but the harvest moon and a couple shooting stars to light the way. It was hot, dry, surreal, a little spooky and a whole lot of fun. Matt and I kept looking around with big fat grins pretty much the whole time. Having Joshua tree basically to ourselves was a really special thing too - like being alone on another planet.

Day 4 on the Oregon Coast Trail kicked off with a misty bridge crossing in dense fog as we crossed the Yaquina River departing Newport. This was one of the only bridges on our route due to the long jetty rocks and lack safe beach exits for our rafts. For the next 50 miles we reveled in relatively pleasant weather and good riding too. We paddled across the Alsea Bay with fairly calm water. The whole crew then stopped at an epic little bike co-op in Waldport to rinse the sand and salt corroded gear before continuing down the beach to the volcanic reefs above Yachats. In town, we stopped at one of the best coffee shops on the whole trip and soaked in some sun and the view south before continuing on till nightfall.

We crashed for the night at a campsite near Florence OR, marking the 200 mile point of our journey from Astoria to Brookings…. almost the exact midpoint. Spirits were still high even though the legs felt heavy. Still a lot of coast left to go.

I spent the weekend watching my reflection dance on alpine lakes that had, just a day earlier, helped fill my water bottles from the tap in a Bakersfield gas station bathroom.

Protecting resources like these from unwise use just makes sense. If you agree, you should sign @savepubliclands letter before this weekend and share it with some friends. You can also make a public comment keeping the roadless area rule in place, @outdooralliance has an easy to fill out form in their bio for this. by @shredskyy

We are so excited to announce the first screening of our mini-documentary, “From the Ground Up.” This one was a labor of love. After reaching out to @lixayda_vasquez and @yudi.2mm about the idea, we got things rolling within a month and went to Peru to interview them and film a climb with these two incredible mountaineers. No budget, no crew, just a passion to make stories like Lixayda and Yudith’s known to the world. “From the Ground Up” details the cultural shift currently happening in the Andean mountaineering world, spurred by a few tenacious women reconnecting with what it means to lead, and to interact with the mountains their ancestors revered as holy places. Here’s a little teaser for you, and we are bringing the full doc home to the PNW in September, screening it at @mtshoppdx . Admission is free, and the Eventbrite sign up is in our bios. We would love to see you there! by @shredskyy
