Went up to Dosewallips Campground. The road has been washed out for many years and some parts are more single track.  Took way to much stuff but had a great time. Had my bike packed for comfort.

Sounds like a great trip.  When I did the divide I camped at Doswallips so that brought back some memories.  It looks like you are a bit heavy though.  Comfort is good, but try to keep your base weight under 20lbs and you will find bike packing a lot more enjoyable.  A $20 postal scale is a great tool for assessing what really needs to come along.
