Photos continued. The oregon wilderness educators course has a rock climbing component at Smith rock, a Wilderness First Responder section, a river section on the lower deschutes, a mountaineering section in the sisters wilderness and lastly a finals section that contained the Owyhee river and an ascent of Mt hood. I didnt get many photos of smith or the deschutes for some reason but did get a fair few of the other sections. I worked the whole course with other staff coming in to work specific sections. It was great to be out there for the whole time and also to get to work with so many good people (we ended with 10 different staff working the course). 50 days is a long time and I was interested in how I would feel afterwards. Generally I just feel like there really is something I should be doing or someone I should be talking to but apart from that I feel energised to go on my own adventures right now. which will follow in the next post....
Chilling in the tent with meagan and steve (day 47 or 48) on mt hood. We spent a bit of tent time on hood due to a storm then from the sun.
Hot dogs in the snow at Mt hood trail head (timberline). The salad kept blowing away.
Meagan making fresh cinimon rolls on the Owyhee river.
Descending Mt hood toward the hogs back with the rope team strung out in front of me. (mt jefferson in the distance)
Rusty cooking in the snow kitchen, sisters wilderness.
Montgomery rapid (class 4) in the canyon section of the Owyhee (theres a raft in there somewhere)
Finally making it to the trail head in the sisters wilderness after slogging it out with my pack and a sled. (the sled was great except when i wanted to change direction!)
Tony sorting food in our mini snow kitchen in the sisters wilderness.
The camp at illumintation saddle (on the left) with the clouds rolling past.
Night 3 on the Owyhee sleeping in the cave.
