Day 5 - RAA Sect 2

Realized there was no way I would make it to MAZAMA in time with the climbs still ahead, so cut it short and got to an amazing campsite in Newhalem. Ranger (also a cyclist) told me it was free for cyclists, and there is no camping fee.

Great thing about this stretch is that most of it was on a trail, which flattened it out a bit, and had very little traffic (bikes or people) on it.

Nearly 100mi to Mazama, should consider a stop

That’s where I’m heading

The sign says it all

The best ever. Next to the river in the forest
