We met Brian at 730am for our ride to Detroit. Detroit is on beautiful Detroit Lake where people come to fish, camp, sail and enjoy the outdoors. It's also a good stopping place on the drive from Salem to Bend and I've been there many times. We had a nice breakfast at Cedars, bought food at the convenience store, and then Brian drove us back to the detour. It was so kind of him to wait for us. A new trail angel. So the long road walk began. We hiked 12 miles north on hwy 46 which is a scenic road through National forest. We entered the Mt Hood forest. Then we turned east on road 4690 for 7 miles, then north again on road 4022. We've hiked 4 miles on this road so far and are camped off to the side. Tomorrow, we will be back on the PCT after a few more road miles. I'm so glad I'm with friends. Its made what would have been tedious, much more fun.
