Coleville,WA - Usk,WA (75 miles)
This morning we woke up in the bike hostel in Coleville completely refreshed! What a great place to stay: warm shower, comfy beds, a kitchen to use and a space to relax in. The Bacon family really do an amazing job with it.
Today we set out to do our last pass in Washington. It wasn't nearly as large as the others, but what made it truly enjoyable was the road we were on. It was a tar-n-chip state highway, but it was almost void of cars. Cedars cover all the mountains, but todays trees stuck out more than the others. Maybe it was because we where at tree level for the majority of the time. Most of the trees had long, hair-like moss hanging from them. The roads were also lined with wildflower, ferns, different colored grasses, and wild strawberry plants! Yum, strawberries!
It's pretty incredible how quickly the landscape in Washington changes. Temperate rain forrest, mountains, high desert, and range land. All beautiful.
Tomorrow we'll get to see what Idaho has in store for us!
