Back to Montana

Day 19: Friday, July 15, 2005

 

 

Rick and Vicki camped down by the river and joined us for breakfast and saw us off as we left for Missoula and took our photo

 

 

This is the first day we have had someone to get a photo as we start the days ride

 

 

it looks downhill—but it is not

Rick and Vicki passed us on their way up to the rest area

another celebration

and more visiting

our first time ever to enter Montana

just as we leave the rest area at the summit of Lolo Pass

 

another traveler westbound

 

lots of rocky outcroppings along the route

 

 

 

 

Lolo Peak way up there with some snow showing

We learned while in Missoula that a ski resort is in the planning for Lolo Peak area

 

 

That is Lolo Peak again

 

the old swimming hole

looked inviting as it was approaching 97 degrees

 

now our rest day begins

Hu Hot

Mongolian Grill

Rick and Vicki joined us for dinner before heading back to Lochsa Lodge for another night of camping

The food was wonderful

and the dessert speaks for itself!
