One state down, 14 to go.
One of the prettiest days that we've had so far. Leaving Spokane was a little crowded with traffic and fumes, but the day was bright and cool and we soon left the commuters behind.
I also left Washington behind, my 1st state of 15. In 5 days, I've put on 480 miles and climbed 17,940 ft. (> 3 mi).
It's funny how quickly the landscape changed between WA & ID. Very subtly, but very noticeable. The roads we were on were definitely less bike-friendly, but then we hit the Couer d'Alene rail trail which took us through Harrison City and on to Kellog, ID. The trail is over 50 miles long & we were on it for 45, along the Couer d' Alene river & lake & vast 'fields' of water lilys, & Ospreys, but unfortunately no moose. YET!
