I’ve only done one destination hike by flying rather than driving, and it was in Oregon.
>light rail from the airport to Gresham (suburbs)>bus from Gresham to Sandy (tiny mountain town)>pubic shuttle to Timberline LodgeOther than the flight, it’s about three hours of travel, including a quick stop in Portland to buy stove fuel, so basically an entire day just to get there. There are private shuttles straight there, but you’re only saving maybe an hour of time and they’re crazy expensive.
I want to do a trip to Bend, than a bus to Sisters to hike the Three Sisters Loop, but I’m afraid of hitch hiking (less being murdered and more just not being picked up). I might just do a private shuttle, but I don’t know. It’s been a few years because Oregon was retarded with Covid restrictions.
>>2568769He gave examples of why it’s not a shithole, specifically environmental diversity. Can you explain why he’s wrong and why Oregon is bad? Use your words.
