July 3

Got to lovely camp at 10:30 at Plymouth, WA across the river from Umatilla. 50+ miles today, 6:30 departure. Walla Walla on Friday. Then Dayton, Pomeroy, Lewiston around Monday next. 

We will cross back into Oregon briefly in the morning, then back to WA. We see lots of birds. Yesterday had a family of peregrine falcons hunting swallows or swifts on basalt cliff along the road. 

Bodies and equipment are holding up well except that Mark had tire failure yesterday. Fortunately made it to camp. Replacement available in Walla Walla. 

Camps have all had showers except for first night out in the coast range.
