Mile Marker 0: We left Hahn's house at 8:30 AM and went to the Essential Baking Company.

Mile Marker 0: Note how high spirits are here, and remember that note later.

Mile Marker 20: The part of Katniss was played by Jennifer Lawrence. Jennifer Lawrence does not use social media of any kind, but a fan based Jennifer Lawrence Instagram feed has 29.7k followers. Yonder Journal on the other hand has 32k followers. Just, you know, saying.

Mile Marker 22: You will need a permit in Hancock forest lands!

Mile Marker 26: Yonder Journal is not responsible for any of the graffiti in this tunnel.

Mile Marker 26: From Forbes.com's Top 10 worst body language mistakes to make in an interview. "Arms crossed over your chest signal defensiveness and resistance," says Karen Friedman, communications expert. "When they're open at your sides you appear more approachable." Cole...just let it go man, just let. it. go..

Mile Marker 26: There is a point when there is so much moisture in the air that patch glue, the glue needed to patch tubes will not dry, like never. It's as if the environment itself is one big glue storage tube and the glue just graduated from private school in a small mid-western town and moved to Brooklyn with a no-limit credit card. "Now is the time to party, the drying out can wait for later! I need to mingle."

Mile Marker 26: Cole and Dave demonstrate a more advanced Conga Line than Linn-Benton CC is capable of.

Mile Marker 26: At what point does a stop during a ride become two separate rides?

Mile Marker 28: To watch a man on a rope swing can be a beautiful experience. Just FYI, you won't find this rope swing unless you make a "wrong" turn in Fall City, WA. It's easy though, check the cue sheet.

Mile Marker 32: "Hey let's put a super steep gravel climb in these guy's way, how's that sound?"

Mile Marker 35: We can be nearly absolutely sure that this photo wasn't taken on a Wednesday. In fact we have a 6/7 chance, which are very good odds, that if we made a guess that this photo didn't indeed happen on a Wednesday we would be right. This makes us feel good, like winners, or almost winners, like we have a good chance at being winners. Here's the thing, even if this photo wasn't taken on Wednesday, and therefor wasn't in-situ part of the #hardstylewednesday wavelength, if you just come back and look at this image on a Wednesday, then, and this is all due to you, this image would become part of the #hardstylewednesday wavelength, which makes it kind of a thing. So thanks.

Mile Marker 35: Check out all those siq rides!!!

Mile Marker 35: No matter how authentic your wool jersey, or how well crafted your woodsman's beanie, you will be required to wear a sport coat when having a bourgeois brunch at the Selah Lodge located next to Snoqaulmie Falls. If you don't have a sport coat of your own, don't worry they have loaners. With jackets in place we used our wilderness cunning to avoid being labeled as interlopers, and one of the techniques employed was to make sure that we took plenty of time in the place. With the languor of robber barons we enjoyed a three hour brunch, pacing our meal, ordering second and third courses, all the while sucking down one Arnold Palmer after another.

Mile Marker 35: The Snoqualmie Nation considers this specific place, the place where heaven and earth meet. (Yonder Journal respects the Snoqualmie Nation's traditional assertion, but we also feel that it is necessary to note that all surface land, by definition, is the place where heaven and earth meet.)

Mile Marker 36: The music of the American television series Twin Peaks, and its 1992 prequel film Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me, was composed by Angelo Badalamenti.

Mile Marker 35: Visitors to Snoqualmie enjoy the Historic District, the Northwest Railway Museum, unique shops, and more than 35 restaurants that cater to all manner of tastes.

Mile Marker 43: Literally everything in Washington was wet.

Mile Marker 43: For more information on the meteorological reason everything was wet in Washington, please read Cliff Mass' blog entry on the Atmospheric River which occurred concurrently to our brovet.

Mile Marker 43: "Since the origin of this and many other atmospheric rivers that affect us is from near Hawaii, we affectionately often call them pineapple expresses."

Mile Marker 47: Lyrics from the song "The Hanging Tree." Sung by Katniss Everdeen in The Hunger Games Part III: Mockingjay.

Are you, are you
Coming to the tree
Where they strung up a man
They say murdered three.
Strange things have happened here
No stranger would it be
If we met at midnight
In the hanging tree.

Are you, are you
Coming to the tree
Where the dead man called out
For his love to flee.
Strange things did happen here
No stranger would it be
If we met at midnight
In the hanging tree.

Are you, are you
Coming to the tree
Where I told you to run,
So we'd both be free.
Strange things have happened here
No stranger would it be
If we met at midnight
In the hanging tree.

Are you, are you
Coming to the tree
Wear a necklace of hope,
Side by side with me.
Strange things did happen here
No stranger would it be
If we met at midnight
In the hanging tree.

Mile Marker 69: We couldn't find any food and we needed supplies, so we knocked on the door of Index Outdoor Adventure Center and joined their family rib dinner. Afterwards, we offered to throw them some cash for the ribs and the apple juice, and they said "Okay sure, $14.50 a head." Subsequent to shelling out cash they played kayak videos with dubstep soundtracks.

Mile Marker 69: Nighty-night, bikes.

Mile Marker 69: "Optical illusions are often done digitally now with digital cameras and the use of high tech computer monitors and graphics software. Digital photography with high resolution editing can create truly magic illusionary images. For example, erie hypnotic spiral, rolling undulating waves, out flowing illusion, spinning circles and moving squares" from OpticalIllusions.com.

Mile Marker 69: Hahn tried to buy a tube of patch glue during our rib dinner. The guy says "yeah, well now, I don't have patch kits." Kinda obvious, but we were in a desperate-for-glue kind of way.

Afterwards we sat on their back porch, which was covered, but wet. That's a blanket statement, Index was just wet, all of it, the whole thing, Index exists in a fishbowl, a fish bowl filled with water.

Mile Marker 69: We went to a Korean Lady's store which was a museum of convenience store products, she had VHS blanks and brandy flavoring on the shelves. We said that we were looking for a place to stay, a spot to sleep. She called the bed and breakfast, she called the mobile, everything was booked. She said that we could stay in Goldbar where there is a motel that is ALWAYS vacant *weird face*. We went back to talk to the family at the ribs joint, they said DO NOT go to Goldbar, it's so foul.

Mile Marker 69: After we asked about Goldbar "Oh hey, we have an empty cabin you can stay in, with wifi." We end up paying $150 for the night but we left $180 worth of sand behind and we took $150 worth of showers. You do the math. The cabin had no furniture, no washer or dryer and a non-inflatable mattress with a leak. The cabin was soooo hot.

Mile Marker 69: Cole slept in the attic with 432 dead flies.

Mile Marker 69: David eats sexy cupcakes in his dreams, TONS of sexy frosting, everything was wet.
