Easy ride down there! Starting to get pretty warm out though. Visited the site briefly as it was the first stop of 5 I was visiting in one afternoon trip.

First stop of the day in early June – perfect weather for a ride along the Snake River watershed. Hit seven sites on a 260 mile loop.
Givens is a great place for a family soak and picnic.

Last stop of the day for me, so I donned my trunks and went in for a soak 🙂 You only need swim gear as they have complimentary towels.

Brisk morning. Haven’t been in that pool since the time I took the kids 25 years ago. Never I repeat never take a mask and snorkel to a public pool.

Quick after work ride. I’m not sure, but I think I saw after he grabbed this check in, or at least someone on a CRF250 with a black helmet.

We decided to take the long way home from the Challenge picnic and stopped by Givens Hot Springs. Was nice to see quite a few people were there enjoying the warm water.
