This was the last site of the trip for me. Just after refueling in Challis my chain gave out and I had to call my wife to bring the F150 and bike trailer to rescue me. It may have been a good thing though since I was able to avoid snow that the other 3 had to ride through!

Made it into Salmon. It’s hot. High 80’s. Ride over from Montana was blast. Especially near the border. No issues getting to this one. On edge of town.

Beautiful park with a ton of information describing who Sacajawea was, and how she helped Lewis and Clark Expedition. You could spend a lot of time here. Located right off the highway.

Great day for a ride. Decent temps and sunny. Hit 5 sites today on this loop. Haven’t been able to pick up my bandana yet but still gonna post it and maybe do it again later in the year so it will count. Either way was a great ride.
