SPECIAL MOVES
Packed and carried his own gear and supplies, shouldering the work of the trail.
Always scouted the path ahead, quietly letting me know we were safe.
Thin air, snow-lined paths and exposed ridgelines never slowed him down.
From the Pearl District to Chicago sidewalks, the same calm confidence he carried on forest trails.
ACHIEVEMENTS
Saved from a Northern California shelter and given a fresh start in Portland.
Backpacked 60 miles over four days through the Three Sisters Wilderness.
Hiked Oregon, Washington, California, Illinois and Idaho.
Showed his little brother Vader the ropes and passed down the art of adventuring.
Up the coast through Big Sur and the redwoods, all the way home to Oregon.
Caught by park rangers in the redwoods. Again. It was tradition.
GAME COMPLETE
Sixteen years lived fully and faithfully. Laid to rest in California on July 27, 2025.
