14 miles of hiking • 4750' elevation gain •
Started at Oneonta with plans to go OT to Waespe Pt. Mid gully changed tack and went up the west side to a different viewpoint, then up the ridge to pop out at Bickel Pt. and Nesika Lodge. (Old guy at Nesika says Bickel Pt. is actually Waespe?) Then up the cutoff to Franklin Ridge, to Oneonta Tr to Larch Mtn in intermittent rain. Down Larch Tr, across Multnomah Spur and over Franklin Ridge to go down Oneonta Gorge and make a figure-8. Lovely spring rain and lush greenery.

It's cause I've been either off trail or on Hood, and hadn't done a double digit hike since March! :)

Good gracious, son. And just when I thought I was catching up with the miles...
