Catherine wanted to hike the Minam for her birthday this weekend. Started by wading the Minam just west of the town.
Some of you are aware the RMEF just finalized its largest land acquisition ever, the same area we started in. Soon you'll no longer need to wade the river.
We covered 32 miles this weekend, the toughest section today from Reds Horse Ranch on the Minam River, to Moss Springs. Today we gained 1,000 feet in the first mile. We gained another 1,000 feet over the next six miles. The last mile is the toughest. Along with another thousand feet the trail is out in the open on a southern exposure, gets pretty warm.
Moss Springs is only 10 miles from the house, but we did that in her jeep.
