WA tomorrow!

Just to give everyone an update I'm currently at Cascade Locks taking a rest day. I'm right across the Columbia River from WA, which I will enter tomorrow. There are several fires closing the PCT just to the south where I just came thru. One of them I camped within sight of and was one of the last thru before the trail was closed. The other fires I didn't even see. I'm very fortunate that I got to continue my path, unbroken, to Canada. Others will have to walk around the fires via alternate trails or by simply skipping sections. Gretchen will be joining me at Stehekin which makes me very excited. We may be done before Sept. 12. Much more to tell, but I'm doing this from my phone.
