The long way around

We rode from Mountain Home, ID to Arco, ID by running north to Stanley and Challis then back south. We could have gone straight east on I-84 but what fun would that have been? No issues today except a couple stretches of construction but the view was very nice.

We rode along the Salmon River in the valley next to the Sawtooth Mountains, very spectacular. Now it's another relaxing night at yet another KOA with a 6 person cabin. Frank won the coin toss so he gets the big bed by himself.

Someone who will listen to Jerry with out talking back!!!

 Steve didn't see us stop for a break.

Waiting for the pilot truck.


A neat stretch of winding road in this black rock canyon. 

The white could have been snow but none of the other mountains had any so I'm thinking it was some kind of white rock out cropping. 

A long and straight stretch of highway leading into Arco.
