WOW what a ride

Today we left Missoula under mostly sunny skies and had dry weather all day. After stopping at a car wash so the guys could knock off the top layer of mud from their bikes we continued West on highway 12 AKA the Lolo Pass road across Idaho. It was a fantastic road with lots of curves and great views of the accompanying Salmon River. Then the scenery opened up with huge rolling grassland hills.

Some of the guys wanted to touch base with Oregon so we headed that way. We lost Bruce while searching for a campground and after several hours of backtracking he found us. It was getting late and with no prospects for a campground we rode to Ontario, OR, which is in the Boise metro area, and grabbed rooms at a motel 6 for the night.

All in all today more than made up for yesterday's wet and cold weather.
