Quiet Camping in Washington County

[Christopher Chen]

Some rough stuff, and camping off the beaten path. Light rail to the Zoo for some morning descents. Pictures prove it happened:

Chris,

I saw these on Flickr already thanks for sharing again. All I have to say is damn, damn  you PDX'ers. And why don't we have transporters yet! For god sake it's the 21st century already.

We set off to camp on a piece of land that seems to have fallen off the radar. It's in the grid but not doesn't appear to be on the grid. It's a chunk of 2nd and old growth forest surrounded by suburbia. We could see the lights of houses in the distance through the trees. We heard a car alarm and road noise from early morning commuters. No wildlife was seen but we did enjoy coyote howls and the screech/hoot of an owl. It wasn't necessarily an idyllic camping location, but it was suitable for a quick overnighter.

Gee thanks Andy for bringing me back to reality! Yeah that doesn't sound that nice, a short ride out of town to a forest. And by the look of those smiles it looks like you fellows suffered tremendously.

great pics from andy too!  

I showed my wife these and she said "Why are you walking the bike?"

She is a good deal tougher than I.

Och! You use the LCG when you need the LCG and it's always a good thing it's standard equipment. Grin.

 Is that the Linear congruetial generator. I didn't know that was standard. Then again maybe it it is.

Close, Hugh. Lowest common gear. That's what my oldest daughter calls it, and it's stuck. Every bike has it.
