Couldn't post this today, but here is the gist of day 5: sustained climbing. Almost 5,000 feet of it, with limited flat parts. In total, we gained over 7,000 ft in elevation. My legs hurt by the end. Fortunately, it was in the 80s when I arrived, an we're camping on the Rogue River. Ask I stood in the sun, soaking my legs in the river, I watched some youngsters play on a rope swing across the river and struck up a conversation with a fellow rider doing the same as me. The perfect way to end a long day of climbing.
