The sun was coming up over the peaks and we were halfway there when we came to a dirt road. Because the dirt road was on the edge of a mountain, we started up the road very slowly and cautiously. When we got to the base of the mountain we got our packs and started the adventure to the top.
This is almost as dramatic as walking through the canyon. It climbs slightly, winding through junipers and pinon pines. As you approach the opening to the canyon, the trees become much denser, and the area takes on the look of a forest. Beyond the canyon entrance, the trail is littered with large boulders, some the size of cars, which you will need to negotiate. If you are not up for a difficult hike, you can turn back at this point. Continuing on, the trail eventually leads to the end of the canyon, where the stone walls seem to envelop you. This is an in-and-out hike, and vistas on the return trip stretch out to the red rock hills across the

To add to the difficulty of the trails is the extreme elevation changes. The re are ironically enough thirteen climbs which result in more than 10,000 feet of climb per loop. This is obviously accompanied by an equal amount of descent. One runner described it as climbing 100 floors of stairs in your first mile, going back down on second mile and continuing this for twenty miles. The course amasses an average grade of over 20% and between 50 and near 100 percent grade on the abandoned trails and bushwhacking sections. The grade is the reason that the trails have been abandoned or not built in the first pace. Each climb bears a unique name which in many cases gives a good idea of their nature.

Three states, 12,000 feet of climbing over three mountain passes, 206 miles, killer views, must be done before sunset, my goal was to finish in less than 10 hours! LOTOJA, is a bike race that changed my life, from thinking 'what am I doing', to overcoming obstacles, including breaking my neck.
I enjoy hiking and have in fact done many hikes around Oregon. I have had experience in the grueling hours put in everyday to get to a new camp and then have to eat freeze dried food. Granted the food’s not half bad. But to think about climbing a mountain as vast as Mt. Everest and eating that everyday until return, makes me want to cry. My hikes have not gotten below the temperature of 20 degrees fahrenheit nor have they been too windy, but they have no doubt been tiring. As I hear stories of climbers of the great Mt. Everest, it baffles me what man will sacrifice to defeat a mountain just for the love of it . Not feeling limbs do to numbness and the extreme exhaustion sounds bitterly terrible, let alone the lack of oxygen, causing coughing
As I began to walk this trail, I began to recollect the days of when I was a kid playing in the woods, the birds chirping and the squirrels running free. The trees interlocking each other as if I am walking through a tunnel with the smell of fresh pine and a hint of oak all around me; a hint of sunshine every now and then is gleaming down on the beat path. This path is not like your ordinary path, it has been used quite some time, as if hundreds of soldiers have marched this very path.
